| Abstract: | The rapid advancements in additive manufacturing have revolutionized the field of prosthetic limb development by offering affordable, lightweight, and highly customizable solutions. However, traditional 3D printed materials like polylactic acid (PLA) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) often lack the necessary mechanical strength and durability required for real-world prosthetic applications . This study investigates the mechanical performance of carbon fiber reinforced nylon (CF-Nylon) as an enhanced material for 3D printed prosthetic limbs. Using fused deposition modeling (FDM) techniques, standard test specimens were printed with controlled parameters and evaluated for tensile strength, flexural strength, Young’s modulus, and impact resistance . The results indicated a substantial improvement in mechanical properties, with tensile strength reaching 78 MPa and flexural strength reaching 110 MPa. In addition, CF-Nylon demonstrated increased stiffness with a Young’s modulus of 3.6 GPa and an impact strength of 3.2 kJ/m², outperforming pure nylon and ABS in each category . The findings of this research underscore the potential of carbon fiber reinforced composites in creating next-generation prosthetic limbs that are more robust, lightweight, and better suited for long-term use . Future work will focus on optimizing fiber orientation during the printing process and exploring continuous fiber reinforcement strategies to further enhance the mechanical behavior of prosthetic components . |
