Hey! This is the first red 蠵 (xī) turtle with a 3d printed chin.

OFWeek 3D Print Network News: Hey, this is the first Akasaka (xī) turtle with a 3D printed chin.

When we look at how to use 3D printing to benefit humanity, some people have turned their attention to the protection of wild animals.

Akut-3 is a cute, red-breasted tortoise that originally lived an ordinary and happy day. Unfortunately, in July last year, a ship flew past, a high-speed rotating propeller slid across its face, and the right face and 60% of the chin were already unknown.

The Dekamer Turtle Research Rescue Center rescued it and used BTech's 3D printing technology to repair the Akut-3's chin.

Step1: Scan

The researchers scanned the skull of the Akut-3 and performed 3D modeling .

Step2: Which one is missing?

According to the established model, the missing part of the red turtle is added.

Step3: Print

Print according to the corresponding part of the model.

Step4: Seamless integration

The researchers implanted the printed prosthesis into the anesthetized red turtle.

After the Akut-3 woke up, it was able to open and close its own chin. Now the team is taking care of the red turtle to prevent infection.

At the time of recovery, Akut-3 will be taken care of with the other 47 partners at the Dekamer Center.

Some people may have to worry that this turtle is so strange and will not be discriminated against. It would have been bad for the body, and it would be bad if it was psychologically traumatized.

Don't worry, there used to be a turtle called Cleopatra. Because of malnutrition, there are shell hyperplasia, and there are several wounds on the back shell, which is very easy to be infected. Later, a student at Colorado Tech University printed a turtle shell for it in 3D, and it was also painted with a protective color. People who are connected with the same disease, turtles should not be alone.
