Abstract
This project sought the development of a hand prosthesis model by myoelectric drive, using only one engine, in similarity to the tridigital tweezer models available on the market. The differential characteristics sought were: the lateral variation in the thumb position, the movement at all fingers, with articulations at the phalanges, and a hold forces distribution system. The traction by just one engine simplifies myoelectric signal control system, which works only with commands of open and close, and the prosthesis mechanism applied to the movements allows better adjust to the shape of the objects, for a safe preention. The process used to the structural construction was the additive manufacturing, searching for the versatility to have the final dimensions and the customization to the prosthesis user. The model projected achieved the objective to perform the movements initially required, with functionality and anthropomorphic dimensions .
