Background:
The strength of the taper joint plays a vital role in orthopedics which takes the full load of our body. Till date various techniques has been used for the stem manufacturing and an alternative to all those has been presented in the article.
Objective:
This Paper deals with the experimental analysis of the taper connection.The results of the experiment has also been validated during the experimentation process.
Methods:
In case of our experimentation stems of taper joints were implemented in the hips.
Results:
Microscopy based analysis revealed that there was almost no damage in the stems being developed during the process of experimentation.
Conclusions:
As a result it could be summarized that the stem developed during the experimental process were more reliable and free from any type of fretting.
