MT ORTHO
MT ORTHO manufactures orthopedic, spinal and maxillofacial implants using electron‑beam melting (EBM) additive manufacturing of Ti6Al4V trabecular lattices. The process creates high‑strength, 80 % porous, osteoinductive structures that can be topologically optimized for patient‑specific geometry and integrated with standard imaging and navigation systems. A patented Sphereplast filling system extends the platform to minimally invasive vertebral fracture stabilization.

Problem
Surgeons treating orthopedic, spinal and maxillofacial conditions often rely on implants that are manufactured using conventional casting or machining processes, which can result in long lead times, limited design flexibility, and sub‑optimal biological integration. The lack of patient‑specific solutions and osteoinductive surface structures can delay bone healing and increase the risk of implant failure.
Solution
MT ORTHO addresses these gaps by producing both serial and patient‑specific implants with Electron‑Beam Melting (EBM) additive manufacturing. The process builds trabecular titanium (Ti6Al4V‑ELI) structures that combine high mechanical strength with porous, osteoinductive geometry, promoting rapid bone regrowth and stable osseointegration. Advanced topological optimization and digital design tools enable fully customized devices for any spinal level, cranio‑facial reconstruction, or orthopedic application. All products are fabricated in‑house on the latest 3‑D printers, allowing strict quality‑control protocols and fast delivery to public and private hospitals worldwide. A patented filling system (Sphereplast) further extends the technology to minimally invasive vertebral fracture stabilization.
Target Audience
Primary customers are orthopedic, spinal and maxillofacial surgeons, as well as public and private hospitals that require high‑performance, custom or off‑the‑shelf implants for bone reconstruction and fracture stabilization.
Features
- Electron‑Beam Melting (EBM) additive manufacturing of Ti6Al4V alloy, delivering high‑resolution trabecular lattices with 80 % porosity.
- Osteoinductive surface architecture that stimulates osteoblast differentiation and extracellular matrix mineralization, verified in vitro on human mesenchymal stem cells.
- Topological optimization and design freedom for patient‑specific implants, including mirrored‑geometry planning for maxillofacial reconstruction.
- High strength‑to‑weight ratio and elastic modulus matching cancellous bone, reducing stress shielding.
- Certified compliance with ASTM, ISO and CE standards; full traceability and biocompatibility testing.
- Integrated quality‑control pipeline with non‑destructive inspection and mechanical testing on every batch.
- Sphereplast osteoinductive filling system: pre‑loaded cannula with titanium spheres that create a “Velcro” effect for vertebral body stabilization after kyphoplasty.
- Compatibility with standard imaging modalities (CT, MRI) and surgical navigation systems for seamless intra‑operative workflow.
