R&D projects
NVKP 16
Developing a new generation of manufacturing process of tailor-made medical implants and tailor-made medical aids for additive technologies
Project ID: NVKP_16-1-2016-0022
Supported by: Nemzeti Kutatási, Fejlesztési és Innovációs Hivatal (NKFIH)
Term: 1 January 2017 – 31 December 2019
Supervisor (BME GT3): Dr. Péter Horák

Consortium partners (BME): Varinex Zrt.
Project summary
The goal of the project is to create and develop a new generation of tailor-made medical devices (which need to be tailor-made) by developing the complex system of additive manufacturing processes (data collection and processing, modelling, virtual manufacturing finite element analysis, validating based on measurements, 3D printing. The results of the project will be the creation of tailor-made implants and devices in human medicine. Current mass-produced implants cannot suit everybody since people are different and this inevitably leads to imperfect solutions. Mostly focusing on laser additive technologies, we plan to make a manufacturing standard and smart plant for the manufacturing of tailor-made medical devices which integrate smaller-scale individual development results at a systemic level by creating and maintaining long-term cooperation between the industry and BME.
