An overview of the Additive Manufacturing capabilities in the development of rehabilitation products with customized elastic properties

The advantages of AM (Additive Manufacturing) to manufacture complex geometries and custom flexible structures (shape, density, geometry etc.) provides the possibility to use the elastic properties of different materials to design elastic products with “customized” properties in order to obtain damping profiles that could be adapted to a specific energy absorbing application. One of the most widely used materials in the sense of the above is TPU...
