I had the idea for this design after working at a medical company here in Germany producing amazing Prosthetics made from expensive materials. I was born and lived in South Africa and am well aware of the situation in a country were such high tech prosthetics are out of reach due to the cost for the poor (other counties have the same problem). I wanted to design a product that is simple and cheap to make, is quick to produce replacement parts and not affected by water or dust and is practical.
I see the parts being made from most materials that make sense i.e. PLA, PETG, Carbon filled material etc.
The Tendons (4x) to be made with TPU 65a ( I found worked very well).
The design has similar movement in the ankle to a human ankle. The foot design flexes on heel and toes for a more natural walk.
I have printed and tested this design and know that it can work.
