Human-Lead, AI-Powered: Rethinking Digital Manufacturing for Medical Devices
1:15 PM - 1:45 PM
DeviceTalks Engineering Theatre

As AI adoption accelerates across medtech, manufacturers face a critical question: how do you harness AI’s speed and scale without compromising quality, compliance, or engineering accountability?

In this session, Protolabs experts examine how a human‑in‑the‑loop approach to AI is redefining digital manufacturing for medical devices. From AI‑enhanced DFM and automated inspection to intelligent similarity analysis and documentation support, attendees will learn how AI can reduce design risk, improve manufacturability, and enable faster, more predictable outcomes—without replacing engineering judgment. The discussion will also explore how manufacturers can prepare for the next phase of AI adoption while meeting the demands of ISO 13485, traceability, and regulatory readiness.
