Abstract:
An additive manufacturing system and method for making components having filaments formed by elastomeric materials. A liner includes the filaments formed by an elastomeric material and is adapted for a prosthetic device system. The filaments form an elastomeric lattice structure and solid layers or features and define a ventilated structure permitting a transfer of air and moisture from an interior volume of the liner to an exterior or ambient liner. The liner may incorporate an adhesive and a textile layer secured to the elastomeric lattice structure and further define recesses and other features for improving a liner.
