Core offering

LimesVet designs and manufactures custom 3D-printed surgical guides and patient-specific titanium implants for veterinary surgeons, using CT/MRI imaging, bio-engineering CAD design, and Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) additive manufacturing of Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy. The integrated workflow spans digital 3D anatomical visualization, design approval via Sketchfab, polymer surgical guide production, and metal 3D-printed implants (including the proprietary TROCA patellar groove prosthesis system) delivered globally to veterinary referral practices.

Product overview

LimesVet is a veterinary medical technology company offering a comprehensive suite of CT and MRI-based 3D design and manufacturing services for small animal surgery. The integrated workflow spans from 3D Anatomical Visualization (segmenting medical imaging into digital 3D models via Sketchfab 3D platform) through Bio-engineering Design Services (engineers and veterinary specialists designing patient-specific solutions) to production of 3D Printed Anatomical Models, Custom Surgical Guides (drilling/cutting/positioning guides in biocompatible polymers), and Custom Medical Implants (titanium Ti-6Al-4V ELI implants via DMLS metal 3D printing). The flagship product line includes the TROCA Patellar Groove Prosthesis System (TROCA 50, TROCA 56) for patellar luxation treatment. All offerings are preceded by Case Submission and Design Approval services, and completed with Global Delivery including sterilization instructions. The company supports veterinary surgeons from patellar luxation and spinal surgery to cranial reconstruction.

• Vetmeduni Vienna (University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna)flagshipStrategic or Co-development Partner · 9 February 2026A joint collaboration between LimesVet and Vetmeduni Vienna aimed at elevating veterinary medicine through 3D planning and patient-specific implants. Dr. med. vet. Gabriele Gradner and Dr. med. vet. Martin Immler from Vetmeduni Vienna collaborated with LimesVet on cases including a multilobular osteochondrosarcoma (MLO) reconstruction with custom titanium implant. The collaboration aims for precision, safety, and tailor-made solutions for faster recovery in four-legged patients.
• WIMBAcoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 15 October 2024LimesVet entered a partnership with WIMBA, a Polish company with decades of experience in manufacturing orthotics and prosthetics for humans, now offering solutions for small animals. The partnership combines LimesVet's surgical guides and custom implants with WIMBA's external orthoses and prosthetics. This provides comprehensive patient care across the surgical-rehabilitation continuum. WIMBA's 3D technology produces lightweight, affordable, and fast-to-produce devices. The collaboration enables LimesVet to offer post-surgery rehabilitation solutions and non-surgical treatment options.
• FuzioVet Animal Hospital / Dr. Antal SeregiflagshipStrategic or Co-development PartnerFuzioVet Animal Hospital, owned by prominent veterinarians including Dr. Antal Seregi (orthopaedic specialist), has been a key clinical partner since LimesVet's founding.

Direct peers

• KYON: Swiss veterinary orthopaedic implant company offering advanced locking plate systems and joint replacement products for small animals. Most established premium veterinary orthopaedic implant brand and direct competitor for complex surgical cases.
• Conformis: US-based medical device company specialising in patient-specific orthopaedic implants using 3D printing technology. Closest analog in technology approach (patient-specific implants from CT imaging) but focused on human orthopaedics.
• Veterinary Orthopedic Implants (VOI): UK-based manufacturer of veterinary orthopaedic implants, plates, and screws. Direct competitor in the small-animal orthopaedic implant market with comparable customer base of referral surgeons.
• LimaCorporate: Italian orthopaedic implant manufacturer with strong patient-specific implant capabilities (especially shoulder and extremities). Closely comparable technology platform to LimesVet for personalised implant design and additive manufacturing.
• BioMedtrix: US-based pioneer in canine total hip replacement and orthopaedic implants. Competes with LimesVet in the small-animal joint replacement and orthopaedic implant space, particularly for total joint procedures.
• Orthomed: UK veterinary orthopaedic and surgical instrumentation company. Provides implants, instruments, and external fixation systems to veterinary surgeons — overlapping customer base with LimesVet in European referral practice.
