A Review of 3D / 4D / 5D Printing Applications for Biomedical Supply Chain

Abstract

The objective of this study is to critically review the applications of 3D, 4D and 5D printing technologies in the biomedical supply chain. The evolution of additive manufacturing has significant impacts on the healthcare sector in terms of supply chain optimization, cost reduction and developing customized medical solutions. 3D printing revolutionized the production of advanced biomedical devices, organs and tissues by making patient-specific strategies possible. 4D printing has demonstrated significant advantages especially in producing medical implants, prosthetics and regenerative tissue by providing dynamic structures that react to environmental stimuli. The new 5D printing improves accuracy and complexity by virtue of its multi-axis production feature. This research analyzes the effect of such technologies on the change they induce in biomedical product production and supply chain. Besides, the future directions and challenges of such technologies are analyzed and how they can reshape healthcare models are debated.

Biyomedikal Tedarik Zinciri İçin 3D / 4D / 5D Baskı Uygulamalarının İncelenmesi

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, 3D, 4D ve 5D baskı teknolojilerinin biyomedikal tedarik zincirindeki uygulamalarını eleştirel bir şekilde incelemektir. Katmanlı üretimin evrimi, tedarik zinciri optimizasyonu, maliyet azaltma ve özelleştirilmiş tıbbi çözümler geliştirme açısından sağlık sektörü üzerinde önemli etkilere sahiptir. 3D baskı, hastaya özel stratejileri mümkün kılarak gelişmiş biyomedikal cihazların, organların ve dokuların üretiminde devrim yaratmıştır. 4D baskı, çevresel uyaranlara tepki veren dinamik yapılar sağlayarak özellikle tıbbi implant, protez ve rejeneratif doku üretiminde önemli avantajlar ortaya koymuştur. Yeni 5D baskı ise çok eksenli üretim özelliği sayesinde doğruluğu ve karmaşıklığı artırmaktadır. Bu araştırma, bu tür teknolojilerin biyomedikal ürün üretimi ve tedarik zincirinde neden oldukları değişim üzerindeki etkisini analiz etmektedir. Ayrıca, bu tür teknolojilerin gelecekteki yönleri ve zorlukları analiz edilmekte ve sağlık hizmetleri modellerini nasıl yeniden şekillendirebilecekleri tartışılmaktadır.
