Abstract
A continuous fiber-reinforced build material for additive manufacturing (AM) of fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) structures, a machine for the preparation of the build material, and use of the build material for manufacturing of three-dimensional (3D) FRC end-product devices, such as medical devices for management of musculoskeletal and dental disorders.
Claims20
A continuous fiber-reinforced build material for a medical device, comprising at least two continuous multifilament fiber rovings each comprising at least one braided segment having a non-uniformly braided structure, wherein the at least two continuous multifilament rovings are bonded together at intervals through joining points and wherein the build material has an unfolding structure between adjacent joining points creating an umbrella or fishnet structure, and wherein the medical device is for management of musculoskeletal or dental disorders.
A continuous fiber-reinforced build material for a medical device, comprising at least two continuous multifilament fiber rovings each comprising at least one braided segment, wherein the at least two continuous multifilament rovings are bonded together at intervals through joining points and wherein the build material has an unfolding structure between adjacent joining points creating an umbrella or fishnet structure, wherein build material comprises a hybrid multifilament fiber roving comprising fibers of different materials, and wherein the medical device is for management of musculoskeletal or dental disorders.
