3D Printing for Prosthetics

Over the years, the images of disabled children with colorful prosthetic limbs inspired impactful movements like the ENABLE community and Victoria Hand Project, as well as enumerable passionate innovators who have pushed the boundaries to increase accessibility and lower the cost of orthotics and prosthetics. However, the field of 3D printed prosthetics has advanced significantly since the days of ENABLE hands. These advancements include not just hardware, materials, but also software, designs, 3D scanning, and lately completely digitalized workflow at the point of care, often leveraging machine learning and artificial intelligence. More importantly, technologists are now working more closely with clinicians to create a more efficient and more evidence-based patient-centered clinical solution. In this highly anticipated webinar, we invited experts with decades of technical, business, and clinical experiences and diverse perspectives to give the attendees a 360-degree view of the current and future status of the industry.

Thank you Jenny, this has been really informative and highly motivating. I bought my first 3d printer in 2019 and my second in 2021. I taught myself these technologies to bring my toy ideas to life, but since April 2022, I've pivoted into prosthetics and orthotics. I find it far more worthwhile than developing toys and trinkets, really looking forward to making a positive impact in the Cape Town area with useful devices for all living things. To anyone reading this message, my guess is that you're already looking at medical-related 3d printing. Keep doing this good work.

Hello, what is the material that you used for the print?

Hey, i would to get started with designing these kinds for models in Uganda
