Femoral Knee Implants - a new manufacturing paradigm

2023-09
The femoral component in a knee implant is very challenging to manufacture. The curved, condyle surfaces of the implant must meet very strict tolerances, and have a smooth, polished surface.

Using GF Machining Solutions' Mikron MILL S 600 U, along with special cutting tools from Seco and specialized CAM strategies developed in hyperMILL® by OPEN MIND, we were able to reduce machining time by over 30% and to improve the surface roughness such that the grinding process is eliminated. This webinar recording explores the keys to success.
