The invention relates to a device designed to determine manufacturing data for producing objects that have variable, freely orientable orthotropic elasticity characteristics, by calculating data relating to grains of branches, which combined define branches, the number of grains of branches and the thickness of each branch being related to the desired elasticity characteristics.
