Talus PSI (3rd Gen.)
Koln 3D’s Talus PSIs (3rd gen.) have been used in total talus replacement surgeries since early 2022.
Our 3rd gen. patient-matched talus implant assumed its predecessor’s scaffolding core structure design, while adding on an external porous structure to help with bone and ligament regrowth.
Koln 3D offered one-stop solution from surgical planning to product delivery, working closely with the surgeon to refine the design within the limited timeframe.
We'd like to thank everyone for the team effort in speeding up the recovery process for patients.
CUHK Presentation
It has been a real privilege and a pleasure to be able to share some of our experiences in metal printing and robotic post-processing at CUHK.
It was a great opportunity for us to explain our workflow and design process to doctors and academics, as well as exploring the possibilities of new projects. We are always open to new designs and collaborations, looking to bring ideas to life in clinical applications with the latest innovation.
HKSTP Innovator’s Wall
Edmond (Found & CEO, KOLN 3D) is currently featured at the Innovator’s Wall in Hong Kong Science Park (Atrium Link, Hong Kong Science Park), as part of HKSTP’s 20th Anniversary commemorations. This is testimonial to our effort for transforming ideas into innofacturing, set in motion by the staunch support from HKSTP. This unique growth culture that values ecosystem stakeholders as business partners, has seen the flourishment of many innovative start-ups.
Whilst Hong Kong’s R&D and Innovation & Technology (I&T) have been highlighted in the country’s 14th Five-Year-Plan, along with the opportunities and support presented at the Greater Bay Area (GBA), we look forward to continuing this great partnership and aspiring younger generation to co-create a I&T-enabled future together.

CDIA (Child Development Initiative Alliance) web series & Y-WE work placement
This month, Edmond appeared on CDIA’s (Child Development Initiative Alliance) web series to share with students his own career path, as well as his insights in the 3D-printing industry.
The full web programme could be seen here: https://lnkd.in/eidXgZFy
Early July, we will welcome two DSE students to Koln 3D via CDIA’s Y-WE #work #placement programme. This is a good opportunity for everyone (including summer interns!) to give a summary of our work and show our week-long colleagues a good time.
CDIA is an initiative by the business community, set up to provide career related exposure for youths in need, as an effort to eliminate inter-generational poverty. More information could be found on CDIA's facebook website: https://lnkd.in/gGvZRWu7
Koln 3D Seminar: Additive Manufacturing in Orthopedic Surgery
Koln 3D hosted a seminar series on Additive Manufacturing in Orthopedic Surgery this month in Geneva, Switzerland. The applications and benefits of customized 3D printed surgical implants and instruments have been discussed, where the biocompatibility and biomechanical performance of 3D printed metal alloys were highlighted. Relevant case studies sparked positive response from local surgeons, while the transformative future of semi-auto/full-auto orthopaedics surgical planning is one to look forward to.
A big thank you to everyone who helped to realize this event!
