Abstract

Technological advances in the medical sector, especially in surgical training, have developed rapidly with the existence of increasingly realistic and effective training devices, such as suture pad training kits. This research aims to improve the quality and accuracy of these devices through reverse engineering methods using 3D scanning technology. This process involves analyzing the shape and geometric structure of silicone rubber suture pad products and reprinting them using additive manufacturing methods. The research aims to compare the measurement results of suture pad training kit products made from silicon rubber with 3D scan results and printing results using additive manufacturing methods. In this research, the suture pad was scanned using a 3D scanner to obtain geometric data, which was then reprinted using two 3D printing methods, namely, Fuse Deposition Modeling (FDM) and Stereolithography (SLA). The scanning and printing results are compared based on the dimensional measurements of Length (L), Width (W), and Height (H). The findings showed that there were significant size deviations during the 3D scanning process, especially in the L and W dimensions, namely a reduction of -3.33 and -3,982 mm. with the largest deviation occurring in Width. The size deviation in the FDM and SLA method printing processes is largest in the H dimension, with an increase of 0.678 and 1.548 mm. Overall, the total dimensional deviation is the H dimension in the reverse engineering process using the SLA method, which is 4.2 mm or 6% of the initial data of 66.38 mm.
