Two successful workshops were recently held in the P&O Engineering Department at the company. Engineer Jassim Mohammed provided a detailed explanation of the 743A220 PROS.A. Assembly device and its uses in assembling industrial limb parts, whether below or above the knee, and creating ideal interfaces between interconnected parts using official measurements prescribed by the manufacturer. This device makes the walking cycle smoother and less strenuous for patients while reducing errors resulting from imprecise work.
In the second workshop, Engineer Noor delivered a lecture on the "water bath" device and conducted a practical manufacturing experiment for a finger support. Engineer Noor Basim explained the manufacturing steps and their practical application, highlighting the importance of the device and how it can be used more effectively in the future in the field of upper support manufacturing. The device is made of corrosion-resistant steel and operates on the principle of heating water for molding and shaping a piece of fusible plastic material. The piece is designed and drawn based on the patient's condition, and after heating, it is extracted and directly molded on the hand. Subsequently, the focus is on completing the manufacturing process and taking care of the aesthetic and functional aspects of the supports.
The workshops demonstrated their ability to transfer knowledge and teach the necessary skills for accurately assembling industrial limbs and manufacturing high-quality upper supports with excellence.
