Congratulations on their Bachelor's degree: Michel Bauer and Isabelle Schubert revolutionize prosthesis production with "RapidProsthetics"
We would like to congratulate Michel Bauer and Isabelle Schubert on successfully completing their Bachelor's degree at the Münster School of Design at Münster University of Applied Sciences. Their joint thesis entitled "RapidProsthetics - Development of digital product design strategies to optimize additive manufacturing processes in orthopaedic care" was developed in close cooperation with the 3D-Lab and was awarded the best thesis of their year.
The focus was on the development of a fully digitally supported process for manufacturing modular arm prostheses directly in a clinical environment. With the help of 3D scanning technology, CAD modelling and additive manufacturing (SLS and FFF printing processes), the two graduates succeeded in digitizing traditionally manual and time-consuming work steps. Their innovative solution considerably simplifies existing manual processes, saves valuable resources and drastically reduces waiting times for patients.
Their award-winning work makes an important contribution to the future of orthopaedic care and combines design excellence with engineering precision and medical relevance. We are proud of this outstanding achievement and wish Michel and Isabelle all the best for the future!
