WHEN TO CALL US

We start with the problem, not the equipment

01

A problem to clarify

We review the purpose of the model or device, the anatomy involved and the available data with the responsible professional.

02

A decision to support

We compare materials, detail, strength and finish to select a process suited to the intended use.

03

A process to improve

We support the transition from a digital model to a prototype or custom part with defined validation requirements.

PARTS, MODELS AND TECHNOLOGIES

From anatomical model to custom device

We combine data preparation, additive manufacturing and finishing to materialise anatomy, devices, prototypes and complex components. Technology is selected according to objective, material, detail, quantity and use requirements.

Custom insoles for support and comfort

Additive manufacturing of insoles adapted to the foot for plantar support, pressure redistribution and walking comfort, based on assessment and guidance from the responsible healthcare professional.

Representative examples. Any clinical application, medical device or implantable component requires validation by the responsible professional, qualified materials and processes, and compliance with applicable regulation. Suitability is assessed case by case.

THE VALUE OF A PARTNER

A technical answer, not just a result

NM3D combines technology, software and application experience to turn data into a practical decision.

✓ Right method

✓ Clear result

✓ Specialists

✓ Continuity

HOW WE WORK

A simple process, from question to decision

01

Technical scoping

We collect the intended purpose, available files, dimensions and requirements specified by the healthcare professional.

02

Work plan

We define data preparation, material, 3D printing technology, finish and acceptance criteria.

03

Execution and analysis

We prepare and manufacture the model, prototype or device to the agreed plan and check the technical requirements.

04

Result and next steps

We deliver the part and agreed technical information; clinical suitability is validated by the responsible professional.
