INTAMSYS Keeps Critical Medical Equipment Running with Fast, Reliable 3D Printing

In emergency medical care, every minute counts. Plasma thawing machines—used to rapidly thaw frozen plasma (FFP) for life-saving transfusions—must operate without interruption.

Tropitronics, a U.S. distributor of medical equipment, provides after-sales support for hospitals, including Microwave Plasma Defroster manufactured by Ark Bio-Medical. When several key components became worn or broke, replacements from the OEM were costly and had long lead times. Any delay meant extended equipment downtime and potential impact on patient care.

After successful testing, Neometrix used the FUNMAT PRO 310 NEO to produce 24 additional sets for inventory and ongoing maintenance. From modeling to batch delivery, the entire process took only a short time—minimizing downtime risk.

The 3D-printed replacements precisely replicated the original components’ functional features. According to the customer, the new parts not only matched the performance of the originals but even outperformed them in durability.

In medical equipment maintenance, the quality and reliability of replacement parts are absolutely essential. While many 3D printers on the market can handle ABS, the INTAMSYS FUNMAT PRO 310 NEO offers a clear edge in print accuracy, part strength, and overall consistency. Its fully enclosed heated chamber and high-temperature build platform help maximize material performance during printing. As a result, the printed parts are not only dimensionally accurate and mechanically robust, but also offer longer service life—making them a great fit for critical medical applications that demand long-term reliability.

• More reliable parts – Delivers high-precision, high-strength ABS prints that hold up over time and under real-world use.
• Rapid Response–Shortened turnaround from request to delivery, getting equipment back online fast.
• Consistent Output–The INTAMSYS 3D printer delivered stable, high-quality batch production with no extra adjustments.

Supply Chain Resilience–On-demand, local printing reduced lead times, minimized downtime, and kept critical medical devices operational.

By combining reverse engineering with high-performance 3D printing, Neometrix transformed part replacement from a costly, slow supply process into a fast, localized solution. With the INTAMSYS FUNMAT PRO 310 NEO at the heart of production, the team ensured stable equipment performance while boosting flexibility and resilience in the supply chain.
