Abstract
This article deals with upper limb prosthetic made
by 3D printing technology. For tests and analysis the number
of open-source bionic hands (eNable and exiii’s HACKberry
projects) were chosen. These hands represent low cost solution
of conventional or myolectric prosthesis. Our investigation
was focused on three main parts: 3D printing using different
3D printers, technologies and materials; assembly with the
use of commonly gettable fasteners and devices on Czech
market; functionality testing under laboratory condition. In
conclusion our results of these fields are summarized and
possible improvements are outlined.
