New Innovative Opportunities in the Compliance Assessment and Selection of Materials for the Medical Industry
In world where the population is getting older and living longer, the need for durable medical devices and implants is exploding. This requirement drives innovation in the space, widening the scope from the traditional metals such as titanium and cobalt chromium, to newer material groups including thermoplastics and ceramics which at the same time increases the challenges in safety and the efficacy of the end product. We will cover how Total Materia can drive precise, safe decisions around material selection for a range of critical constraints, whether it be basic material durability, fatigue strength requirements or adherence to a range of regulatory guidelines including biocompatibility or compliance to other national administrative controls such as the FDA.
Presenter: Natalija Scepanovic, Applications Specialist, Key to Metals AG
Featuring Total Materia, available through the Altair Partner Alliance.
