COMPUTER-AIDED METHOD FOR CREATING A BRAIDING PROGRAM, COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR CREATING A BRAIDING PROGRAM AND A DEVICE FOR CREATING A BRAIDING PROGRAM

Computer-aided process for creating a braiding program is disclosed herein. The braiding program comprises machine-readable commands, which, during execution of the braiding program, induce a braiding machine to produce a braided structure, in particular an at least partially braided implant, the process comprising: a) generating a braided structure by braiding, in particular by braid-wrapping at least one braid mandrel using a braiding material according to a specified configuration of commands; b) capturing at least one parameter of the braided structure; c) reconciling the captured parameter of the braided structure using at least one pertinent nominal parameter; provided the captured parameter does not correspond to the pertinent nominal parameter: c1-a) unbraiding at least one section of the braided structure; and c1-b) changing at least part of the configuration of commands for generating a braided structure as well as repeating the steps a) to c) based on the changed configuration of commands; provided the captured parameter corresponds to the pertinent nominal parameter: c2) creating a braiding program according to the configuration of commands, in which the captured parameter corresponds to the pertinent nominal parameter.
