Technology & Products
Key Products
Biocompatible, light-curing resins and large-format DLP 3D printing systems for medical orthotics and aligners
Technological Advantage
Combines deep expertise in light-reactive polymer systems from Montanuniversität Leoben with mechanical engineering and orthopedic technology domain knowledge; creates unique materials with excellent thermomechanical properties, ductility, and skin compatibility while maintaining fast curing and minimal post-processing requirements.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Enables rapid, customized production of orthotics and aligners using fast-curing, Class II biocompatible resins and large-format DLP 3D printing, reducing production time from weeks to hours while improving patient comfort through flexible, durable, transparent materials with shape memory properties.
How They Differentiate
Luxinergy differentiates through proprietary Class II biocompatible, fast-curing resins combined with custom large-format DLP (Digital Light Processing) 3D printing hardware specifically engineered for medical orthotics. Their materials offer unique thermomechanical properties including ductility, shape memory effect, transparency, and skin compatibility while maintaining fast curing speeds and minimal post-processing requirements. Unlike competitors using powder-based systems or standard SLA/DLP, Luxinergy's integrated solution addresses both material chemistry and hardware for orthopedic applications.
