Of the2021In 2016, a research team discovered that thanks to3DSpecial printing technology and implant materials can not only treat orbital fractures, but also effectively reduce the risk of postoperative rejection. The research team usedPrusa i3 3D Modelprinter andAT A GLANCEThe filament-printed graft is able to overcome the biological inertia of the material, thanks to its porous nature, which can be customized to improve cellular repair. By finite elements (FE), the team also found that their devices are highly customizable, meaning that in the future they can be adjusted to meet patients’ individual optical needs.

This technology has gained popularity throughout the Middle East. The technology is currently being used to treat other medical conditions, not just during surgery. Of the2022Year8In March, researchers at Khalifa University in the United Arab Emirates developed3DPrint glasses to cure color blindness. This condition is called color vision deficiency(MCV)which limits the ability of retinal cones to transmit multiple colors. The most common treatment is to wear tinted glasses.

Meanwhile, construction is one of the most important growth sectors, with several countries in the region launching new record projects. For example, Oman wants to develop the largest3D Print concrete structures. Like Oman, Saudi ArabiaYou liveConsidered the last company to use3DPrinting technology inAIUIUrban construction building for hotel chain.

For those who are not familiar with this technology,3DPrinting is a process that transforms computer models into3DThe process of three-dimensional objects. then use3DThe object is created by a printer that reads the digital blueprint and reproduces it layer by layer using ultraviolet light. According to Middle Eastern architects, traditional manufacturing often involves high machinery costs;3DPrinting equipment costs less. The most important thing is that it significantly speeds up the production of goods without requiring high labor costs.
