In the dental clinic’s high-tech laboratory
The missionary hospital’s service technician André Bacher has a lot to do these days. His latest challenge was a steriliser that needed to be fixed in the dental clinic. He quickly found the problem’s cause: a small shutter responsible for the water drainage had stopped functioning. But where should one find the required spare part in the Peruvian mountains? Fortunately André Bacher and Tibor Minge work in a solution-orientated way.
Thus they came up the following plan: we will make the spare part ourselves and will proceed in this way:
1. Design it in a Free CAD-Programme.
2. Print the designed part in the laboratory’s 3-D printer.
3. Exchange the broken part with the new part.
Tibor Minge writes: “It was only a small shutter, but it was a big step for us mechatronics engineers. Who knows what André Bacher will print in future!”
The final product is the result of perfection.
