  • Industry: Medical
  • Material: PEEK
  • Technology:
  • Classification:

Curiteva utilizes its own Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) technology to create medical-grade cervical stabilization products from PEEK. This technology allows them to fabricate porous scaffolding structures that can function as bone replacements. Through the use of their proprietary FFF 3D printer, Curiteva is capable of engineering fully interconnected porous structures that imitate natural bone. PEEK is an excellent choice for these products, as its modulus of elasticity is comparable to cancellous bone, and it offers radiolucency, which enables physicians to monitor fusion progression over time accurately. Moreover, Curiteva’s proprietary HAFUSE (Hydroxyapatite) Surface Nano-Texturing is specially designed to promote faster and enhanced Osseointegration.
