Application of the Tailored Fiber Placement Process in Orthopedic Technology

In patient care in orthopaedic technology workshops, the use of fibre- plastic composites with continuous f ibre reinforcement has become indispensable due to the good properties of the material. However, the use of conventional textile semi-finished products such as woven fabrics is usually associated with a large amount of material waste and high manual effort. Using generative manufacturing processes, by contrast, offers significant process- and material-specific advantages for orthotic design. In a series of joint research projects between the Leibniz-Institut für Polymerforschung Dresden e. V. and various research partners, the potential of the tailored fibre placement (TFP) process is therefore being investigated and further developed for application-oriented process chains in orthopaedic technology…
