Abstract

See full text

A method of making a microfiber implant. The method uses a fabrication apparatus that comprises a winding platform and a feeder head. The method comprises advancing a microfilament out of the feeder head towards the winding platform and making repeated windings of microfilament around the winding platform. While making the windings, the feeder head moves laterally relative to the winding platform. The feeder head could make multiple sweeps to stack layers of windings. This results in a microfiber patch that can then undergo further processing (e.g. applying a collagen coating) to result in the microfiber implant. Also disclosed are microfiber implants made by this winding technique and apparatus for performing the windings.
