About this model

When I saw what eNABLE does and started reading the problems eNABLE community members face when designing, printing and assembling the prosthetic hands in any variant, I was able to identify a couple of problems that were common to almost all cases, and I decided to start working on a way to try and solve those the best i could.So I first identified the scale/size problem; when a printed hand involves screws or bolts and other standard-sized hardware, it becomes very problematic to properly scale to a recipients custom size.Then it comes the mechanic part of it; all systems I have seen, use the force the recipient has in his/her forearm/wrist to open/close it. (V/O, V/C) This has a lot of disadvantages since every recipient is different and a design that may seem to work for some, may not …
