Abstract:
The surface of the artificial knee joint manufactured by 3D printing technology is rough. This study uses advanced multi-axis machining technology to study how to improve the manufacturing accuracy of the artificial knee joint surface, and uses five-axis machining CAM software to analyze the process of three-dimensional model of the artificial knee joint and to compile tool path, create a five-axis special post-processor, convert the tool path point file into the NC program for machine tool processing. In order to ensure the safety and efficiency of the processing procedure, a Mikron HEM-500U machine tool simulation platform was built in the VERICUT simulation system for simulation processing verification, and then the blank prototype obtained by 3D printing was processed in a five-axis machine tool to meet medical clinical use requirements.
