In the maintenance of medical devices, it is often necessary to replace damaged precision medical components. However, due to some components coming from imported medical devices, not only are they expensive to price, but there may also be no source of goods, which increases the difficulty and cost of medical device maintenance. To effectively solve this problem, 3D printing technology can be used to achieve the modeling and rapid printing of precision components, which is of great significance for improving the quality level of medical device maintenance. This article takes the practice of 3D printing technology in the field of medical device maintenance as the research object, and briefly introduces 3D printing technology and its advantages.
