Featured Case Study
Case Study: Designing Resilient Healthcare Solutions
The Problem
Island Health manages more than 1,000 Vocera medical pagers. Small plastic clips on each battery pack broke frequently, and replacing whole battery units cost taxpayers over $10,000 per year while sending otherwise functional hardware to landfill.
Our Solution
We collaborated with Island Health to redesign a stronger clip, ran pilot prototypes for staff testing, then scaled to a full production run.
The Result
Custom clips are in use across a long-term-care site, extending battery life and eliminating a five-figure annual expense. Island Health reduced e-waste and kept critical communication devices in service.

FAQ
Medical & Dental 3D Printing Questions
What files do you need?
An STL (or other mesh) is ideal. Include your application, intended use (e.g. surgical guide vs. display model), and any material or certification requirements. We can also help with CAD from scans—see our CAD services.
Should I use SLA or SLS for my part?
SLA is best for fine detail, smooth surfaces, and dental or surgical models. SLS is better for tough, functional nylon parts—brackets, enclosures, orthotic prototypes, and geometries that need internal cavities without supports.
Can you print biocompatible parts?
Yes, on request—we can produce parts in biocompatible Formlabs resins and USP Class VI–compatible SLS nylon. You must confirm the material meets your regulatory pathway.
How fast can you ship across Canada?
Most SLA orders ship in 1–4 business days; SLS typically takes 2–4 days. Shipping takes 1–5 business days. We offer tracked shipping nationwide and local pickup in Victoria, BC. Rush may be available—ask when you quote.
Regulatory notice:
Morin 3D is a contract print service, not a medical device
manufacturer. You are responsible for design validation, intended use,
and regulatory clearance. Material certifications apply to specific
resins and powders from their manufacturers—not to our facility. We
are not ISO 13485 or FDA registered. Discuss documentation needs
before ordering patient-contact parts.
