Prosthetic Leg Covers: Designed for Mass Customization

Intro: 0:00 Design Goal: 0:41 Creating the Frame of the Cover: 0:52 Conformal Lattice: 1:32 Voronoi Surface Lattice: 2:07 Perforations: 2:43 Why would you want to do this?: 3:28 Additive manufacturing allows us to create an aesthetically pleasing prosthetic cover with better fit and custom designs. Prosthetic leg covers restore balance to the silhouette of the leg and play an instrumental role in raising patient confidence and self-esteem. In this nTop Live, Yuki Okada, Technical Marketing Engineer at nTopology, shows you how to generate multiple design variations of a prosthetic cover in nTopology. He imports a basic CAD design, and uses nTopology’s latticing capabilities to create unique patterns and textures on the surface of the cover. Watch and learn how to: Create custom prosthetic leg cover designs for light weighting and aesthetics Generate a lattice structure that conforms to the surface of the prosthetic cover Add customizable perforation patterns to reduce weight --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Request a demo ► https://ntopology.com/request-a-demo/ Subscribe for more videos ►    / ntopology   Website ► https://ntopology.com/ Youtube ►    / ntopology   Linkedin ►   / ntopology   Instagram ►   / ntopology   Twitter ►   / ntopology   Facebook ►  / ntopology-105010787627932   nTopology was founded in 2015 to enable engineers and designers to create any geometry — no matter how complex — and to meet the requirements of high-performance products. Our software is used from research through production to create breakthrough processes and products for the aerospace, automotive, medical, and consumer industries. Customers depend on nTopology’s generative design capabilities to take full advantage of new hardware, optimize parts where performance is critical, overcome design bottlenecks, and augment their traditional CAD, simulation, and engineering software stack.
