Abstract

In manufacturing of femoral head prostheses, the roundness of the femoral head is important. In order to reduce out-of-roundness when machining with a conventional CNC machine, a compensation technique with a fast tool servo was developed. The fast tool servo with piezoelectric actuator was fabricated and installed on a conventional CNC machine, and a compensation technique was implemented to compensate for the out-of-roundness. The profiles of machined femoral heads were analyzed and used to develop a representative profile. The experiment was conducted to confirm the prior statistical analysis. The results show that the compensation technique reduced the out-of-roundness of femoral head prostheses to 4.04 ± 0.54 μm.
