Abstract
3D additive technology is revolutionizing the field of upper limb orthotic manufacturing, offering customized, efficient and cost-effective solutions. This article examines the evolution of the use of 3D printing in the design and manufacture of orthotics for the upper limb, highlighting its advantages over traditional methods. We explore the various applications of this technology, such as the creation of custom orthotics for patients with orthopedic, neurological or musculoskeletal disorders. In addition, we discuss current challenges and future opportunities in this field, particularly with regard to the accuracy, durability and accessibility of orthotics made by 3D printing. In conclusion, this article highlights the potential of 3D additive technology to improve the quality of life of patients requiring upper limb orthotics, while paving the way for new advances in rehabilitation and personalized treatment.
