Medical-grade resin designed as a strong, durable material with excellent elongation, impact and compression strength, to enable manufacture medical parts that require moderate stiffness and wear resistance. Attributes are similar to polypropylene (PP). Ideal applications include test swabs, single use medical instruments, lab equipment, covers and guards.
Key Features
Medical-grade certified resin
Biocompatible (ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-10 certified)
Ramping up to half a million 3D printed test swabs
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, so did an urgent need for large supplies of personal protective equipment (PPE) for healthcare providers and nasopharyngeal swabs for COVID-19 testing. Supply chain disruptions immediately followed, due to complicated supply chains with overwhelmed suppliers and difficult-to-source components. A reliance on a few vendors, instead of multiple supplier sources, and enormous product demand made it difficult for health care providers to secure inventory and layered on additional challenges.
This textured cylinder demonstrates the exceptional surface quality and detail of the P3™ process combined with a strong and durable material, ST-45 by BASF. Commercial-grade production parts are now possible with P3 on the Origin One.
