Britain's first 3D print nose successfully implanted on the face of a two-year-old girl

The 2 year old British girl Tessa Evans, born with a rare disease - congenital arhinia, according to statistics, only 47 cases were reported in medical history. This means that the little girl has lived without a nose for two years. Even without a nose or smell, she can still cough, sneeze and catch a cold.

In order to let her daughter grow up like a child of the same age, Tessa's parents decided to help the child implant a nose. But many medical experts give their advice that children are too small. The best time is when the child grows to a teenager and his face stops growing.

Fortunately, with the advancement of current 3D printing technology and the creation of low-cost implants, the ultimate doctor's conclusion is that 3D scanning printing technology can be used to regularly replace the appropriate size implant nose for Tessa, but no invasive surgery is required.

To create a nose, the plastic surgeon first scans Tessa's skull in three dimensions, uses the data to create a precise 3D printed skull, and then uses medical carving to move the appropriate nose to the 3D printed skull surface to determine the final implant. The shape and size of the nose. Once the appropriate nose is determined, it can be printed with the appropriate material.

The nose is replaced every two years, but when she grows up, when the face is no longer growing, the final nose is implanted. The implantation at that time is different from that of a child, and a real "implantation" operation is required.

Tessa’s parents said: “She especially likes to play with her younger siblings, and she always smiles.”

I hope that 3D printing technology will continue its angel's responsibility and bring more complete and happy life to more patients.

Tapping Screw

Although there are many types of tapping screws, they all have the following similarities:
(1) are generally made of carbonized carbon steel (accounting for 99% of total production). It can also be made of stainless steel or non-ferrous metals.
(2) The product must be heat treated. Carbon steel tapping screws must be carbonized and stainless steel tapping screws must be solution hardened. In order to make tapping screws to meet the requirements of the standard of mechanical properties and performance.
(3) The product surface hardness is high, the core toughness is good. That is, "soft inside strong outside". This is a major feature of tapping Screw performance requirements. If the surface hardness is low, it can not be screwed into the matrix; If the core toughness is poor, a twist will break, can not be used. So "inside soft outside steel" is self-tapping screw to meet the use of performance, very important requirements.
(4) The surface of the product needs surface protection treatment, generally electroplating treatment. Some product surface must be treated by phosphate (photostatting), such as wall panel self - tapping screws for photostatting.
(5) Production by cold heading process. It is recommended to use high-speed cold heading machine and high-speed wire rolling machine or high-speed planetary wire rolling machine. High speed is emphasized here to ensure product quality. Only the head of tapping screw produced by high-speed machine is well formed and the thread quality is high.
