A REVIEW ON BENEFITS AND DRAWBACKS OF 3D PRINTING SENSORS IN BIOMEDICAL

  • Pramod R

Abstract

This paper provides a substantial analysis of some of the critical work that has been performed on 3D sensor printing for biomedical applications. Thanks to their vital benefits of fast production, simple usability, handling of different materials and sustainability, the value of 3D printing techniques has bloomed in the sensing environment. The paper discusses the different techniques used to create sensing prototypes, along with the implementation of the need and effect of 3D printing techniques for the manufacture of sensors for various healthcare applications. In the manuscript, six different 3D printing methods were explained, accompanied by a contrast among them in respect of their benefits, drawbacks, processed materials, resolution, repeatability, precision and applications. Finally, some of the problems of the latest 3D printing techniques regarding the established sensing prototypes, their subsequent remedial solutions and a business study assessing the spending on 3D printing for prototype biomedical sensing are discussed at the conclusion of the article.
