THE CHALLENGE The loss of a limb to injury or disease is devastating, both emotionally and physically. In addition to adjusting to a new way of life, amputees are often challenged with identifying and acquiring an appropriate prosthetic device. The robotically-controlled forefoot component needed to store energy and reduce torque tracking errors.

Product engineers and designers face the ongoing challenge of optimising both design and material selection to deliver parts for high-performing applications. Long fibre reinforced materials have an added degree of modelling complexity due to the need to capture the effects of bundling, fibre entanglement and weld lines. The case study shows that by utilising the 3D suite simulation and comparing to real-world testing, Avient is equipped to more accurately interpret the data to help solve its customers’ toughest application challenges

MAJOR TIER 1 SUPPLIER C O N N E C T O R C O V E R • EMI-shielding performance at frequencies from 30 MHz up to 2 GHz • Excellent dimensional stability • Must meet robust mechanical property targets including tensile strength and elongation at break • Worked in close collaboration with the OEM from the start of the development process in order to fully understand their key requirements • Developed a customized material providing the required EMI-shielding performance which, removing the need for secondary metallization manufacturing processes, reduced cycle time Surround™ NN- 14 NICF SIP Black Formulation KEY REQUIREMENTS WHY AVIENT?
