Custom Prosthetic Finger Device Using 3D Printable PA11 CF Powder

Résumé

This article presents a study on how to prototype a finger joint exoprosthesis using different CAD software and 3D printing techniques. The article describes the measurement of morpho-anatomical parameters, the creation of a 3D model based on these parameters, and the integration of an articulation mechanism into the patient's finger. This study also outlines the process of producing the custom prosthesis prototype by using PA11 CF material, which has applications in various fields including medicine. The prosthesis was then introduced to Sinterit Studio where a G-code was generated and the layers that would be printed were visualized. This method provides insight into the process of creating a prototype using 3D printing technology and specific software applications.
