⏰ TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read)
<aside>
☝ Cubelabs 3D prints ultra-precise, customized, and reinforced pure-titanium bone replacements
</aside>
💡The Idea
- Bone loss may occur in patients due to cancer, infection, or trauma
- Off-the-shelf bone implants are often inadequate when facing complex medical cases, specifically in highly intricate bone structures such as ankles, jaws, and the chest
- Cubelabs creates replacement bones for implant with reinforced pure titanium with improved biocompatibility and mechanical properties
- Cubelabs’ employs ultra-precise, ISO-certified, 3D printing for highly personalized, ergonomic designs
🥇Benefits
- Personalized fit and function - each implant is customized the patient's unique anatomy, matches the natural curvature and structure of the original bone, and enables optimal restoration of normal appearance and function
- Advanced material properties - reduced number of side effects, higher elongation, and lower elastic ratio than with implants made from titanium alloys, while maintaining an implant strength that is comparable to the original bone
- Innovative design features - for better integration with existing bone, reduced weight and increased strength, and optimized strength and flexibility
- Improved surgical outcomes - more precise implant placement, shorter operation time, and improved accuracy
- Enhanced patient quality of life - clinical studies show significant improvements in pain reduction, recuperation time, and functional outcomes
- Biologically adaptive versatility - applicable to various medical conditions (cancer, infection, congenital deformities) with a porous design that promotes bone integration, reducing issues like bone deformation and density loss while adapting to diverse patient needs
💵Business Model
- Current business model - on-demand manufacturing with per implant pricing, performed through hospital procurement centers
- Planned - Establish in-hospital printing centers as a service
