Indian 3D printing service bureau,think3d, has opened a new 3D printing facility for medical device manufacturing. The facility is located in theAP MedTech区，印度安得拉邦的医疗设备制造公园。
安得拉邦首席部长纳拉·钱德拉巴布·奈杜（Nara Chandrababu Naidu）为新的3D印刷中心揭幕。
AP MedTech区manufacturing park
自2016年以来，AP MedTech区一直在开发think3dhas been an active part这个项目。在维萨卡帕特南市建造的公园占地270英亩，计划分为两个阶段。
Recently, the opening of the first phase of the park was announced. In phase 1, eighty companies will take part to manufacture medical equipment and by the end of phase 2, over two hundred companies will have joined the program.
印度是亚洲医疗设备的第四大市场。但是，这个市场主要是基于进口的，该国进口超过80％的医疗设备。
根据技术群Make in India（Asupporter of the AP MedTech Zone项目），
“The Medical Devices industry in India is presently valued at USD 5.2 billion and contributes 4-5% to the USD 96.7 billion Indian health care industry.”
希望AP MedTech区和Think3D的新设施的开放将成为印度作为医疗设备的主要生产商和出口商。
The co-founder of think3D, Raja Sekhar Upputuri, said, “Medical device manufacturing requires huge up-front investment in R&D, machinery and QC facilities … the government has decided to set-up these common facilities in partnership with private entities and offer these facilities to manufacturers within park on pay per use basis thus reducing the upfront investment from manufacturer cost drastically. 3D printing & 3D design facility is chosen as one such common facility.”

Think3D的新操作将提供一系列现场的3D打印和制造服务，包括3D扫描，3D打印，CNC和成型技术。
目前，该设施设有各种3D打印技术，例如生命值4200，多喷气融合系统，EOSformiga p110 sls打印机和EOS M 290金属3D打印机。雷电竞app下载3D打印机Stratasysand3D Systemsare also available at the center.
Prudhvi Reddy, Director at think3D, said, “This facility will be used for prototype and batch production of parts for medical devices like MRI, ECG, Ultrasound machines and so on. Once these parts are manufactured, they shall undergo various tests in the biomaterial testing lab present in the park and thereafter these parts will be assembled and send to Gamma Irradiation Facility present inside the park for sterilization. This way, a complete ecosystem for product development, manufacturing, testing is available in the facility.”
The facility will be fully operational by 1 January 2019.
