This 3D printing technique helps companies optimize supply chains and manufacture small series. Working jointly with the CHU de Qu\u00e9bec, IQ-CRIQ has added a new string to its bow: Medical 3D printing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">The LARA 3D laboratory\u2019s very first project sought to design a mandibular reconstruction solution, along with two surgical guides. The traditional techniques currently used by surgeons involve the installation of metal plates on the jawbone of patients requiring maxillofacial reconstruction surgery, often after a bout with oral cancer. The need to adjust these plates to the patient\u2019s morphology makes surgical efforts both difficult and time consuming.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">IQ-CRIQ\u2019s solution was to design implants that are perfectly adapted to the patient\u2019s anatomy. Using the patient\u2019s imaging data, the implants are printed using one of many available additive manufacturing technologies, here laser fusion on a metal powder bed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">Innovations like those offered by IQ-CRIQ do not happen overnight. According to Mr. Marcotte, these medical pieces were developed and manufactured over a four-year period. The first step was to obtain the best available equipment while setting up the laboratory that would produce the parts. Then came the extremely demanding but essential Health Canada certification process that would ensure the implants\u2019 compliance with the strictest quality management requirements for medical device production. The collaboration between the CHU de Qu\u00e9bec and IQ-CRIQ became a key factor when obtaining Health Canada certification.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"link-btn-style btn-yellow\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cqfa.quebec\/en\/histoire-dune-reussite-iq-criq-ang-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read the article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Metal 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is one of several cutting-edge fields of expertise offered by IQ-CRIQ.
