Vibenite and Life Science – AM4Life Phase 2

Additive Manufacturing for the Life Sciences (AM4Life) Competence Centre is funded by VINNOVA (Sweden’s Innovation Agency) and gathers more than 20 partners in academia, industry and the public sector to support competence and research development in the filed of life sciences.

The main goal of the Centre is to support a fast national advancement in the field of Additive Manufacturing for the Life Sciences by creating synergies between academia, industry and healthcare.

The AM4Life centre has been granted funding for it’s second phase, i.e. for the years 2025-2029.

As a industry partner, we are of course particularily happy that the first in-vitro biocompatibility tests of VBN Component’s 3D-printed metal Vibenite® 350 have been conducted within the competence centre AM4life. The initial results show that bone-like cells spread and proliferate on the material.
