In addition to increased flexibility, designers wanted the prosthetic foot to provide multiaxial stability, have a symmetrical shape for right or left side application, and provide a modern, attractive design—a feature generally reserved for higher activity prosthetic feet. A unidirectional fiberglass laminate produced with a surfacing veil for added durability provided the ideal combination of flexibility and multiaxial stability.

Avient determined that the manufacturer required a material with a unique combination of properties, including: • Processing ease – high flow rate, ability to fill multi-cavity molds, thin-wall capabilities • Superior toughness – strength and durability to ensure dimensional integrity of the part • Repeatable performance – consistent conductivity for accurate measurement of liquids While several off-the-shelf compounds were evaluated, a new formulation was developed to meet the manufacturer’s specific needs as well as provide signifi cant benefi ts in reduced cycle time, increased production and reduced scrap rate. THE IMPACT For the manufacturer, Trilliant™ HC specialty engineered materials provided a number of advantages that contributed to the success of the new product line: • Reduced Cycle Time: The high flow properties of the Trilliant HC formulation allowed the manufacturer to produce warp-free parts that require less packing and cooling time, resulting in a 40% cycle time reduction Reduced Scrap Rate: The consistent conductivity, improved warp resistance, reduced flash, and improved durability provided by the Trilliant HC formulation meant less breakage, fewer rejects and a 40% reduction in scrap rate

Resin impregnated, continuous glass fibers are drawn through a curing die of a specific cross section, yielding consistent quality, dimensions and mechanical properties to provide more consistent spring rates than alternate materials. Reinforcement fiber configurations are designed to provide high flexural strength and modulus in the axial direction plus fastener bearing strength in the transverse direction Some of the information arises from laboratory work with small-scale equipment which may not provide a reliable indication of performance or properties obtained or obtainable on larger-scale equipment.

Fiber reinforced composites are a popular material of choice for reliable performance, providing high flexural strength and excellent resistance to heat, moisture, and chemical exposure. Working together to understand the unique requirements for the company’s conveyor application, the engineering team at Avient developed customized flat springs that provide more consistent quality and longer fatigue life than the original components, improving conveyor performance and longevity. THE IMPACT Not only did the Gordon Composites vibratory springs outperform the company’s originally specified spring components, they provided a number of additional benefits: Ready-to-install springs reduced labor and simplified installation Unlike alternative springs, Gordon Composites springs are factory machined to the required size and pre- drilled for a significant reduction in cutting and drilling processes and allowing valuable labor time to be allocated elsewhere.
