Abstract

CADCAM (computer aided design/manufacture) production methods are often associated with mass production; working in the medical field at the Department of Biomedical Engineering, the requirement is for one-off, individualized implants. Using a knowledge-based system, implant designs are produced from X-ray data. Assembly from modular components has greatly reduced the production time of implants for bone tumour cases. CADCAM techniques are also used in the production of custom-made hip replacements using digitized data gathered from radiographs. Femoral canal shape is calculated and the optimal implant designed and manufactured from titanium alloy on the Department's CNC (computer numerically controlled) machines.
