Detailed explanation-2: -Fabrication of a prosthetic arm or prosthetic hand relies on two plastic manufacturing methods: injection molding and vacuum forming. Prosthetic limbs are made from plastic polymers, which bond fabric-based layers together to make a prosthesis that is strong yet lightweight.
