In the last decade we have seen significant improvements in the design and user experience of modern prosthetics, with the use of multi-phase materials, such as fibre reinforced polymer composites combined with an underlying polymer matrix.
The use of these materials has allowed for better biocompatibility and with the outstanding strength to weight characteristics provided it has enabled progress in design to further improve the user experience.
We have placed R&D roles as well as manufacturing placements in this sector
Development of these materials are key to both the comfort of the prosthesis and user control/manoeuvrability. Material specification in this industry is so important, -
By preventing stress shielding occurring if the materials used between implants and patient tissue are too stiff to manufacturing cost reduction, making these life changing devices available for everyone.
