Biocompatible and Sterilizable Parts

Testing conducted by Formlabs for common use cases is intended to instill confidence that this material is suitable for biocompatible applications.


Transparent

Visibility through parts allows light to pass through.


Excellent Definition

Produce parts and assemblies with complex designs and geometries.

Applications

Use BioMed Clear Resin for producing rigid, transparent parts for point-of-care and medical manufacturing applications requiring biocompatibility.

Consider BioMed Clear Resin for:

End-use devices
Biocompatible prototypes, molds, jigs + fixtures
Models for visualization and implant sizing
Gas pathway connectors, adapters + devices

*Unlike Formlabs Dental Resins, no intended uses are provided for BioMed Resins. Material properties may vary based on part design, manufacturing practices and other methods. It is the manufacturer’s responsibility and its respective customers and end-users to determine the biocompatibility and performance of all printed parts for their respective application and use. To instill confidence in potential users, Formlabs has tested biocompatibility and sterilization compatibility for common use cases and manufactures BioMed Resins in an ISO 13485 certified facility. We can offer representative examples of what customers have done with our products and the supporting documentation we make freely available.
