The Production Team is the most hands-on of all three teams. Team members use engineering drawings to draft prosthetic designs collaboratively. Based on these drafts, cardboard models are made to test the feasibility of designs. Then, CAD software such as Solidworks is used to turn the sketches into detailed virtual models of the prosthetic. Finally, members use the 3D-printers at the UTD Makerspace to print the product.

Current Projects:
– Knick’s finger prosthetic
– Mechanical Hand
– Mechanical Arm
– Electronic Arm

e-NABLE is a global community of creators capable of making high-quality, affordable prosthetics. After showcasing our ability to manufacture 3D-printed prosthetics with the Phoenix II UnLIMBited Hand, UTD API has become e-NABLE certified! We have officially joined a team of over 40,000 volunteers in over 100 countries.
