Abstract

The invention discloses a combined machining method for a SLA orthosis formed by three-dimensional printing. The method comprises the following steps: in the digital model design stage of an orthosis, the wall thickness of the orthosis is set to be 0.7-1.0 mm, and the digital model is molded through a three-dimensional printing process; the inner side of an orthosis SLA housing is coated with a release agent which serves as a demoulding layer, and a semi-water fibrous plaster is injected and serves as an internal support after curing; the outer side of the orthosis SLA housing is coated with a resin fiber coating layer to form a composite reinforcing layer; and finally, heating is performed to cure the resin fiber coating layer, and then the only requirement is to remove the plaster support. The combined machining method solves the problem that a pure SLA material has high probability of ageing and brittle rupture and is relatively high in cost and high in probability of deformation once heated; the consumption of a SLA material is reduced by 40-65%, and both resin and fibers are low in price, so that the cost is greatly reduced; the softening temperature of the orthosis subjected to combined machining is increased by 15-25 DEG C; and the combined machining material is favorable in ductility and the loading performance of the combined machining material is increased by 3 to 5 times compared with that of the pure SLA material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to composite processing technology, in particular to a fiber resin composite processing method for orthotics produced by stereolithography rapid prototyping (SLA) technology. Background technique [0002] Orthosis refers to the general term for in vitro appliances assembled on the limbs, trunk and other parts of the human body. According to the installation location, orthosis can be divided into three categories: upper limb orthosis, lower limb orthosis and spinal orthosis. Correct deformities of limbs, trunk or treat bone joint and neuromuscular diseases and compensate their function. Its functions mainly include the following aspects: [0003] (1) Stabilization and support: maintain joint stability and restore weight-bearing or exercise capacity by limiting abnormal movements of the limbs or trunk. [0004] (2) Fixation and correction: For deformed limbs or trunks, the deformity is corrected or the aggravation of the deformity...
