3D Printers for Digital Audiology Production

Precision...Accuracy...Speed 

​

3D printing has transformed the audiology space with its increased effectiveness and comfort level.

This revolutionary way to construct custom hearing devices means everyone can enjoy a hearing aid that fits well without having to be uncomfortable. This type of printing, also known as additive manufacturing, allows for a more efficient process of manufacturing and fitting hearing aids. 

​

The end result of this streamlined process is a customized, flexible resin material that must be fitted with acoustic vents, electronics and other components that make up the hearing aid.

​

While it used to take a very long time to create a hearing device, scientists still couldn’t get a custom fit, doing away with labor intensive manufacturing processes of the past. Now, the newer technology cuts down time spent on manufacturing.

​

The 3D printers we have to offer are fully compatible with leading 3D scanning and digital design software providers.

Soft Silicone Ear Molds

Formlabs’ Standard Clear Resin has the optimal properties required for manufacturing custom silicone ear molds for applications like behind-the-ear hearing aids, hearing protection, and custom ear plugs and earbuds.

​

By using the Formlabs  3D printers and Clear Resin, ear mold lab and hearing aid center 'The Listening Stack' saved 40% of manufacturing costs compared to outsourcing, and reduced remakes by more than 50%.
