| 3D Printing For Medical Device Manufacturing: In-House Vs Outsourcing |
 | | By Andres Bernal, Founder, BIONIKO Consulting
Medical device companies are looking to expand their use of 3D printing beyond prototyping and incorporate it into their manufacturing processes. However, does this necessarily translate into bringing a 3D printer onto the manufacturing floor? In many cases, it still makes sense to outsource 3D printing work to a third-party bureau; but in others, bringing additive manufacturing capabilities in-house can give you a decided competitive advantage. Here's how to determine which approach is right for you. |

| A New Approach To Contract Medical Device Manufacturing Relationships |
By Phase 2 Medical Manufacturing, Inc.
Contract manufacturing for medical devices is one of the fastest growing segments of the medical device industry. Why? Because in the race to bring new devices to market, device makers from the largest OEMs to small startups have found that it is more efficient to leverage the experience and facilities of outside organizations for device development rather than recruit, hire, and train people, and purchase equipment and facilities. |
