Original abstract
This thesis deals with proposal of the production technology of knee joint replacement by using Rapid Prototyping technology. The aim of the thesis is to outline the manufacturing technology intended for prototype production with the use of Rapid Prototyping and Investment Casting Technology in orthopaedics and surgery of knee joint replacement. The work can make an effective contribution to the attempts of minimizing of the invasive surgical procedure, shortening of the production of knee joint replacement as well as cost reduction. At present, the research is focused on the preparation of STL dates from CT (computed tomography) and verification of the production technology of prototypes made of available RP technology and its evaluation.
Czech abstract
Tato práce se zabývá návrhem technologie výroby úplné náhrady koleního kloubu, použitím technologie Rapid Prototyping. Cílem práce je návrh technologie výroby prototypů s podporou technologie Rapid prototyping a technologie přesného lití, potenciálně aplikovaná v ortopedii a chirurgii na operace kolenních kloubů. Významným přínosem této práce může být dosažení nižšího zásahu do těla pacienta, zkrácení výrobního času kolenní náhrady (i operace) a snížení finančních nákladů. V současném stavu je práce zaměřená na přípravu STL dat z CT a ověření technologie výroby prototypů na dostupných RP zařízeních a její vyhodnocení.
