Abstract
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of material selection, 3D printing technology, and post-processing methods on the quality and properties of final medical products, using the example of forearm orthosis manufacturing. The study also examined the 3D printers used, operating with SLS and HP MJF technologies, as well as postprocessing devices based on the DyeMansion industrial system. The obtained results demonstrate that both mechanical properties and surface roughness of PA12 components produced by powder-based additive manufacturing are strongly influenced by the applied post-treatment methods. For serial production of orthoses, a workflow using HP-MJF technology with HR PA12 is recommended, as it offers isotropic mechanical properties, high repeatability, and low unit costs. For a series of orthoses that need higher stiffness and load-bearing capacity, Powershot C + Powershot S + DM60 are recommended. For post-processing, Dye Mansion automated systems proved particularly advantageous, enabling the production of smooth, sealed, and sterilisation-ready surfaces. The case study shows that managing each stage of the workflow is crucial to produce a lightweight, durable, biocompatible, and visually acceptable device. The presented research will facilitate the evaluation and choice of essential tools for biomedical engineers employing additive technologies to produce finished medical devices, aligned with the Industry 4.0 concept.
