3D printed implants with linear motors can inhibit HPV infection. At the just-concluded two sessions, Yu Luming, a CPPCC member and director of the Beijing Municipal Medical Security Bureau, suggested that HPV vaccination be included in China's immunization program for girls aged 9-14, free of charge, in order to reduce the threat of cervical cancer to women's health in China. 

     As far as HPV is concerned, as long as a woman has sex, she has an 80 percent chance of contracting HPV, which can lead to cervical cancer. In recent years, the incidence of cervical cancer has been increasing year by year and has a tendency to develop at a younger age. In my case, there are 400,000 cervical cancer patients in our country, and 130,000 new cases are diagnosed every year. The incidence rate is about 6.6% , and the mortality rate is 7.5% . 

    The HPV vaccine is undoubtedly one of the important measures to prevent cervical cancer. According to statistics from the China Academy of Food and Drug Control, the number of HPV vaccines issued in China exceeded 7 million in 2018, and the number of HPV vaccines issued in China exceeded 8.7 million from January to November 2019, of these, 1.7 million HPV vaccines were issued for bivalent HPV, 4.4 million for tetravalent HPV, and 2.6 million for nine valence HPV. In addition to the vaccine, some institutions and universities are also looking for other effective ways to suppress HPV infection. 

    Researchers from Tsinghua University have successfully used 3D printing technology to create a personalized cervical tissue implant, the researchers first designed the cone-shaped structure from medical imaging data, using an FDA-approved implantable biomaterial, polyurethane, and a low-temperature deposition (LDM) , a 3D printing technique. With the rapid development of 3D printing technology, it has penetrated into all walks of life, and its role in the medical field has become increasingly prominent. 

    The continuous progress of 3D printing technology can not be separated from the advanced 3D printing equipment. Because of its high speed and high precision, linear motor is used as the driving device in 3d printing equipment. 

     Kunshan has been developing, manufacturing and selling linear motors for more than 10 years. One of the typical applications of the high performance and high quality linear motors is 3D printing.
