Breast cancer is the most common cancer globally, with around 2.3 million new cases diagnosed each year. It accounts for one in eight cancer cases among both sexes and represents a quarter of all cancers in women. Advancements in early detection methods and support services continue to improve survival rates. When breast cancer is caught in its earliest, localized stages, the 5-year relative survival rate is an impressive 99%! Watch this video to see how Julien Montenero, an expert in custom anatomical facial prosthetics and founder of REALETEE, has pioneered the world’s first external 3D-customized breast prosthesis for individuals who have undergone a mastectomy.

Technological advances empower researchers to push their research further, iterate faster, and even develop potentially life-saving devices that weren’t previously possible. Open Material Mode (OMM) for Form 3 and Form 4 Series 3D printers empowers expert users and researchers to push the boundaries of 3D printing by allowing them to print with any third-party 405 nm photopolymer resin or develop their own custom resins - all while leveraging the technology of Formlabs 3D printers. “On the material side, not having open source options was a big hurdle.” - Aaron Vaughn, Manager of Material Science and Technology, Poly-Med Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eNYTuZgq

At Formlabs, our mission is to build the tools to make it possible for anyone to bring their ideas to life.

How NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration Uses Formlabs SLA and SLS 3D Printers for Coral Research: A study published in One Earth found that since 1950, over half the global population of coral has been wiped out. Anthropogenic, or human-caused, factors like water pollution, habitat destruction, and global warming from the use of fossil fuels, industrial farming, and deforestation, are the primary causes of the massive loss in coral population. Scientists and researchers at NOAA’s Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) print heavy-duty sampler housings, jigs for experimental sensors and equipment, and customized components for their in-house aquaria—structures built to study coral fitness and methods to enhance coral resilience in the face of rising water temperatures and extreme conditions of a changing climate, utilizing two Formlabs Form 2 and two Form 3 stereolithography (SLA) printers as well as the Formlabs Fuse 1 selective laser sintering (SLS) printer. The SLA and SLS 3D printing technologies can create components with such tight tolerances that enclosures with interlocking features or those with screw threads can be completely watertight without additional steps. However, in extremely pressurized environments, additional steps such as using O-rings can increase the enclosures’ efficacy. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3BhDga3

Whether you're curious what an HP Certified Engineer really thinks about the Fuse vs. HP debate, or you're a fan of Alien: Romulus, Fallout, The Mandalorian, and more, join our live Q+A with Legacy Effects' 3D Print Lab Manager, Samuel McBride. McBride will walk us through how he chooses projects for his two large-format MJF printers and his Fuse 1+ 30W, and his thoughts on the strengths and weaknesses of each.

Materials Matter: Silicone 40A Resin is the first accessible 100% silicone 3D printing material, using Formlabs’ patent-pending Pure Silicone Technology™. Eliminate molding and labor-intensive casting processes and 3D print pure silicone parts in-house, in a matter of hours. With this 40A Shore durometer material, you can fabricate soft, pliable, and durable parts with a 230% elongation at break and a 12 kN/m tear strength that can withstand repeated cycles of stretching, flexing, and compression. Combine the high performance of silicone and the design freedom of 3D printing to create highly functional silicone parts with excellent chemical and thermal resistance (-25°C to 125°C), fine features as small as 0.3 mm, and complex geometries that are not possible with traditional methods.
