EQUIPMENT AND TECHNOLOGIES FOR LASER FUNCTIONALIZATION OF THE SURFACE OF MEDICAL PRODUCTS

SKU0022
DESCRIPTION

Improving the quality of medical services, developing new medicines, medical equipment and instruments is a critical condition for maintaining the health, ability to work, length and quality of life of the population of our country. The complex of new domestic technologies and high-performance equipment is designed for the production of medical devices with the necessary functional properties.
Two types of the presented automated laser complexes are able to cover the needs of enterprises for specialized processing in the production of medical instruments, implants for various purposes (dental, traumatological, etc.), orthopedic components (screws, abutments, scan-body, gum shapers, membrane.

Laser technology provides the following set of functions:

  • improving biocompatibility (implants for various purposes)
  • increase in bacterial resistance (medical instruments, orthopedic components: abutments, screws, membranes, etc.)
  • identification of products (medical instruments, orthopedic components: abutments, screws, membranes, etc.)
  • reduction of surface roughness of products after 3D printing (implants for various purposes)

ADVANTAGES OF THE DEVELOPMENT

  • non-contact impact on the material and high processing productivity
  • no consumables
  • the possibility of local application of a given surface microgeometry with nanorelief and the ability to create a multifunctional structure on the surface of various implants
  • successfully passed all stages of preclinical studies (biocompatible, antibacterial)

1) Laser Complex for Surface Functionalization of Dental Implants BioStruct. The complex is designed for implementing the technology of surface structuring of dental implants to enhance their biocompatibility.

2) Laser Complex for Surface Functionalization of Implants and Other Medical Devices of Complex 3D Shapes. This complex is designed for surface functionalization of medical devices with a 3-dimensional shape, as well as other products, with the aim of:
  • Improving biocompatibility
  • Increasing bacterial resistance
  • Identifying products
  • Polishing the surface of products after 3D printing

3) Laser Surface Structuring Technology for Improving the Biocompatibility of Implants. This technology is intended to enhance the biocompatibility of dental implant surfaces by forming a micro-relief with the required geometric shape and chemical composition through laser irradiation.

4) Laser Surface Modification Technology for Medical Devices to Impart Antibacterial Properties. This technology is designed to impart antibacterial properties to the surfaces of medical alloy products by creating an oxide film/nano-relief through laser irradiation. It ensures reduced bacterial adhesion and prevents bacterial biofilm formation on the surface after laser treatment.

5) Laser Technology for Non-Contact Application of Bioinert Identification Marks on Medical Devices. This technology is intended for creating bioinert identification marks on the surface of medical alloy products by forming interference oxide films under the influence of laser radiation.

6) Laser Surface Modification Technology for Traumatology Implants to Reduce Roughness After 3D Printing. This technology is designed for laser surface modification of traumatology implants to reduce the roughness left after 3D printing.

7) Software for Processing CT Scan Images and Designing a 3D Model of a Personalized Medical Device. The software is intended for processing CT scan images followed by designing a 3D model to replace a defect, which will then be used for the creation of a personalized medical device.

These works are carried out with the support of the Foundation for Assistance to Small Innovative Enterprises.
