2.5D printing for an orthosis

Dear Sir or Madam,

2D printing and 3D printing should be familiar to most people by now. But what is 2.5D printing? Lukas Boxberger from Fraunhofer IWU answers this question and why the process has proven to be favorable in the production of finger orthoses in the COMPAMED interview: 2.5D printing: "It only takes about five minutes to print an orthosis".

Have a sunny day!
