Pharmaceutical Application in 3D Printing: Precision Filaments for Personalized Solid Dosage Forms

This project highlights the development of pharmaceutical-grade filaments specifically designed for the production of personalized solid dosage forms via 3D printing. The focus was on achieving precise control over the filament diameter to ensure consistency, safety, and efficacy in drug delivery. Key elements included:

 • Uniform Filament Dimensions: Filaments with an exact diameter of 1.75 mm, produced with minimal variation, ensuring accurate 3D printing of dosage forms.

 • Enhanced Process Control: Integration of a melt pump to stabilize volumetric flow during extrusion, eliminating fluctuations caused by material feeding.

 • Pharmaceutical Compliance: Adherence to strict regulatory guidelines, including Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), ensuring product safety and reproducibility.

 • Support for Personalization: Filaments tailored to enable variable drug loading, release profiles, and dosages to meet individual patient requirements.

This precision-driven approach ensures the reliable manufacturing of personalized solid dosage forms, offering transformative potential for individualized medicine. With the integration of advanced process controls and compliance mechanisms, 3D printing is emerging as a key enabler of personalized healthcare solutions.
