FIReBone
The FIReBone project, focused on personalized medicine, aims to develop the equipment and methods for the manufacture of Functionalized and Certified Reticular Bone Grafts (IORFH) using Direct Ink Writing (DIW) technology. Additive manufacturing is a promising alternative, with DIW being a method with great potential in the biomedical sector due to its versatility for part design, the type of printable material, and the competitive cost of the equipment.
The main objective of the project is to make the process reliable and ensure the traceability of the IORFH in accordance with the standards of the biomedical sector. Another objective of this project is to develop reticular structures for porous implants subjected to mechanical load, with the condition of maximizing the transmission of the load from the implant to the bone and improving its bioregenerative capabilities.
