BMW factory workers given 3D-printed 'super-thumbs'



Workers at a BMW plant in Germany have been given 3D-printed "super-thumbs" to reduce stress on their joints when they are assembling car parts. Each bespoke thermoplastic polyurethane thumb protector is created individually by measuring the worker's hand in a mobile scanner. via Pocket http://ift.tt/VmfTms
