Why You Should Download

Manufacturing custom ear molds with 3D printing has revolutionized the audiology space. Digital manufacturing provides greater control and accuracy compared to traditional mold production, significantly reducing the number of errors and remakes, but accessibility to the technology has been largely limited to a handful of large ear mold laboratories.

Today, affordable desktop stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing enables businesses of any size to embrace the benefits of a digital workflow and 3D printing custom ear molds. In partnership with The Listening Stack, an ear mold lab and hearing aid center in California, this white paper outlines the process for affordably producing custom silicone ear molds using a Formlabs SLA 3D printer.
