Abstract
This study investigates the integration of modern engineering techniques, including 3D scanning and additive manufacturing, in the design and production of wrist orthoses. The research aims to enhance orthotic devices by proposing three innovative fastening methods - Velcro straps, screws, and magnets - designed for use with 3D-printed orthoses. The study outlines the entire process from patient hand scanning to the final orthosis creation, emphasizing the precision and customization afforded by these advanced technologies. The proposed designs are intended to improve the comfort, effectiveness, and usability of orthoses for patients with musculoskeletal dysfunctions. The findings demonstrate the potential for significant advancements in personalized medical devices, offering new avenues for rehabilitation and patient care.
