Three-Dimensional Printing Component Used in Rehabilitation Exoskeleton

This work aims to develop a light symmetrical structure that can be realized through rapid prototyping techniques. The structure must meet some restrictions imposed by possible practical applications. It must withstand a moderate load, be able to adapt to a specific external shape, be relatively light, allow the execution of some changes according to user requirements, allow execution with the help of owned equipment, and allow relatively fast production (its structure and form). The major application for which the structure is designed is that of an exoskeleton for medical rehabilitation, realized by the authors. The creation of such an exoskeleton is followed by a series of research regarding different aspects of acceptability, reliability, ease of use, and the shortcomings that such a structure can cause. In this study, the authors focused on the mechanical part of the exoskeleton realization, which would fulfill some imposed kinematic and constructive conditions
