The 3B Scientific A880 life-size human shoulder joint model is used for anatomical study of rotator cuff musculature and joint movement. The model consists of the humerus upper half, clavicle, and scapula, and dissembles into five parts for effective demonstration. The model’s m. subscapularis, m. supraspinatus, m. infraspinatus, and m. teres minor muscles are removable to allow simulation of the following motions: abduction, adduction, inner and outer rotation, raising the arms to the front and back, raising the arms above the horizontal plane, and making circular motions. The A880 has red muscle origins and blue insertions for accurate identification. The model is mounted on a stand for display. Anatomical models are typically used as educational aids in medical and scientific classrooms and office settings.

The A880 is made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic, which is corrosion resistant, lightweight, and has high strength. It resists reactions with acids, gasoline, alcohol, and hydrocarbons. The model measures 7.1 x 7.1 x 9.4 inches/18.0 x 18.0 x 24.0cm (L x W x H). (L is the horizontal distance from left to right; W is the horizontal distance from front to back; H is the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point.)

Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom and homeschool-based projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology.

3B Scientific manufactures anatomical models, simulators, charts, and other training materials for use in scientific, medical, and patient education. Founded in 1948 and headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, 3B Scientific meets ISO 9001: 2008 standards.
