Carbon Fiber Prosthetic Arm

High Gain has experience in making carbon fiber prosthetic arm that can customized according to client’s requirements.

Carbon fiber is lighter and stronger than steel. Carbon fiber products can be processed by using autoclave curing, autoclave external curing, air bag molding, casting molding, compression molding and other processing forms.

The structural parts produced with carbon fiber materials can reach the highest standards and can be created in the exact form required. In addition, compared with titanium and other metals, the material properties will become harder, lighter and more durable.

The most important thing about using carbon fiber to make artificial limbs is that its density and elasticity are similar to those of bones. According to a rat study called Biocompatibility of Carbon Fiber Implants, carbon fiber reinforced composites stimulate bone integration in the tibial bone marrow. In addition, carbon fibers increased the percentage of bone area (PBA).

When the surface area of carbon fiber and titanium alloy is 0,1 mm (00039 inch), the surface area of carbon fiber is 77,7% higher than that of titanium alloy (19.3%). Although all this is focused on implants, carbon fiber prostheses will benefit from many inherent properties of the material.

By using solid and flexible materials, you can create repair solutions that are suitable for daily use. Because carbon fiber has lightweight, high flexibility, high strength, and has a wide range of adaptability. In addition, when carbon fibers and polymers are mixed, a wider range of applications will be provided.

The mechanical properties of carbon fiber composite, including its light weight, flexibility and high strength, make it a good application material. These characteristics enable a prosthetic to store energy when a compression load of a person's weight is applied to it. The next step of foot lifting will lead to decompression, and the material will return to its original shape, releasing the stored energy. Therefore, the carbon fiber composite can store the bomb performance in the standing phase, and release the bomb performance in the step of helping swing the leg.

This energy storage and release system can improve the performance of the prosthesis. When describing the behavior of the artificial limb system, it can be assumed that its behavior is like a perfect spring, which means that it is applicable to Hooke's Law. There is a linear relationship between stress and strain, and no energy will be lost.

As far as the composition of materials is concerned, the immersion strength of carbon fibers and the flexibility of polymers help to improve the flexibility of materials. Since the fibers respond in different mechanical ways when the load is applied parallel to the fiber direction and transverse direction, the average material properties are sensitive to the geometric structure. Therefore, not only the design of artificial limb is important for its function, but also the composition of materials can be changed in order to adjust individual performance.
