MIM and 3D Printing: Precision Cleaning and Product Finishing of Medical Devices

As the miniaturization trend continues to take the medical device world by storm, manufacturing with metal injection molding (MIM) and additive processes such as 3D printing are gaining widespread acceptance, allowing designers more options for creating parts economically that would otherwise be impossible to manufacture. In many instances, these state-of-the-art MIM and 3D printed processes are not possible without the use of special cleaning and or solvent-based process treatments.
