Jerry,
When you say medical, will the product have to be sterilized? That can
severely limit the materials that you can work with. Even more "normal"
cleaning can cause problems with Polycarbonate, as it isn't much good at
chemical resistance.
When I say medical, it will not be used in an operating theatre environment,
so does not have to conform to these more rigorous requirements.
Product primarily used in sports performance for athletes, but has uses that
give very real medical benefits for some chronic conditions - asthma is one.
The PC/ABS material looks interesting - will definitely look into this more.
We are due to get a SLA prototype today.
It's always interesting to have the actual article in your hand !
