Featured Services and Innovations

Complex conditions often require surgeons to visualize anatomy in ways that 2D imaging can’t provide. Ricoh’s 3D printing technology transforms patient scans into accurate, FDA-cleared anatomical models, giving surgeons a precise view of each patient’s unique anatomy. These lifelike models improve surgical planning, enhance education, and can even reduce operating time—helping patients get better care, faster.

Ricoh’s FDA 510(k) clearance means healthcare providers don’t have to be experts in printing 3D models

Every doctor has been in the tough spot of talking to a patient about a procedure with only a two-dimensional scan to explain complicated anatomy. Medical decisions are never easy for patients—even harder when they don’t understand what’s happening.

Having a precise replica to assist a patient in seeing inside the anatomy—so they truly understand the procedure and how it affects them—can be the difference-maker that provides peace of mind and minimizes stress even on someone’s worst day.

Education promotes patient compliance, satisfaction with care, healthy lifestyles, and self-care skills.¹ Armed with a strong understanding of disease or illness, patients have a higher chance of experiencing a positive outcome.²

Ricoh’s 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for craniomaxillofacial, orthopedic, cardiovascular, neurological, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and breast applications will help organizations better educate patients, loved ones, and caregivers, so hospitals can increase their level of care and help battle ever-increasing costs.

Who’s up for a challenge? Moving additive manufacturing forward

In the first two articles in this series, we discussed the differences between 3D printing and additive manufacturing and how direct digital manufacturing delivers personalized experiences.

In this third article, we examine barriers to adopting additive manufacturing and how to overcome them. Nearly all emerging technologies have barriers to mass adoption, and additive manufacturing is no different. As an emerging technology, the potential to capitalize on this market opportunity is high, with a growth rate over 20% annually.

The opportunity to deliver tremendous value is particularly high, especially in healthcare. For example, the consumer healthcare accessories industry can utilize additive manufacturing for mass customization of teeth aligners, hearing aids, orthotics and casts.

A new era of personalized customer experiences: direct digital manufacturing

Direct digital manufacturing is different from traditional manufacturing (e.g. injection molding). The “direct” in “direct digital manufacturing” reflects the fact that a part can go from CAD designer to production seamlessly. This eliminates the manifold process of creating shop drawings and milled molds found in traditional manufacturing and expands the designer’s possibilities through the new benefits of digitally controlled production equipment including additive manufacturing (3D printers), CNC machines, laser cutting machines, etc.
