Atomic Layer of the Day:
Amnovis - a Belgian company specializing in the production of titanium implants, has announced the delivery of over 50,000 3D-printed implants.
The company has been producing and delivering these implants since 2021, utilizing an innovative titanium 3D printing process that does not require heat treatment. Amnovis supplies implants to sectors such as orthopedics, spine, and cranio-maxillofacial (CMF) surgery.
The company also offers traditional titanium 3D printing services, such as Ti-6Al-4V grade 23 processing with Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP), providing clients with flexibility in choosing their preferred production method.
The co-founder and CEO of the company, Ruben Wauthle, worked for the renowned Belgian company LayerWise from 2010 to 2015 – a pioneer in 3D metal printing for implants, which was acquired by 3D Systems. He later held positions at 3D Systems, including Director of Business Development, Healthcare, before founding Amnovis in mid-2020.
Amnovis will be showcasing products, solutions and capabilities at the NASS 39th Annual Meeting in Chicago from September 25-27.
