3D Printing Provides Hope In Uncertain Times
In an unprecedented time with growing fears over the COVID-19 pandemic, new technologies like 3D printing can be a beacon of hope.
One such story recently made the news. By implementing a 3D printed alternative for a life-saving medical device that is in short supply in Italy a team was able to break a bottleneck in the healthcare manufacturing industry and help local citizens.Ā

"Additive manufacturing may be able to play a role in helping to support industrial supply chains that are affected by limitations on traditional production and imports. One thing is for sure though: 3D printing can have an immediate beneficial effect when the supply chain is completely broken. That was, fortunately, the case when a Northern Italian hospital needed a replacement valve for a reanimation device and the supplier had run out with no way to get more in a short time."
