Abstract
This work has been done during an intership with Medtronic Trévoux, specialists in the repair of hernias. This was an opportunity to participate in the industrialization phase of a new project. This comes to the placing on the market of a textile prosthesis for ventral hernia, intended to be inserted thanks to an innovative method of surgery. That is a mini-invasive approach by laparoscopic surgery via robotic. The manufacturing step that has been studied here is the cleaning of the textile prostheses, also called de-oiling. Indeed, the interest of the cleaning step is to remove the spin-finish oil on yarns, this last being necessary for the first stages of manufacturing but undesired in patient’s body.
The first objective of the thesis was to qualify the installation (IQ) of the new equipment for this cleaning, and thus verify that the machine complies with the manufacturer’s recommendations, the safety standards and that it can operate as expected
