Abstract

The chapter will cover the fundamentals of product design principles for additive manufacturing in medical devices, with a key focus on orthopedic implants and related devices. The chapter will describe commonly used additive manufacturing processes for medical devices and orthopedics, key design considerations, and how they have opened up possibilities in healthcare. The chapter will detail the fundamentals of design principles, which are expanding the boundaries of rapid, meaningful innovation and positively impacting the innovation cycles of a wide range of industries. It will describe how topology optimization, with the help of computing power, is providing design engineers with the tools to accurately understand structure-functional relationships of designs and in the process re-imagine the biomedical designs of tomorrow.
