Hybrid Stent-Heart 3D Модель

Biomedical Stent Model for 3D Printing and CAD ApplicationsOverview

This is a highly detailed, parametric 3D model of a stent-like structure designed in SolidWorks, ideal for biomedical engineering, 3D printing, and finite element analysis (FEA). The model features a cylindrical lattice with a precise zigzag pattern, optimized for both visualization and functional prototyping. Perfect for researchers, engineers, and hobbyists working on medical device development or educational projects.
