Eurostars: E!4506 - MediFEMTO: Advanced 3D fs Laser Surface Treatment for Orthopedic Prostheses
FY 2024-25 · 2024-07-01
Summary
As part of the international consortium project “MediFEMTO: Advanced 3D fs Laser Surface Treatment for Orthopedic Prostheses", this project will focus on *
Orthopedic advances aim to improve outcomes and reduce rejection rates. A machine integrates 5 mechanical axes with 3 optical ones for 3D surface treatment, minimizing bacterial attachment on prostheses. Implant-related infections pose challenges. The fs laser system offers a solution. Partners contribute crucial expertise and technology. Our new software enables advanced laser-based manufacturing, with a machine tool digital twin allowing virtual usage before construction. Advanced feedback control and calibration optimize precision, with real-time computing enhancing performance.

Description (French)
Dans le cadre du projet de consortium international « MediFEMTO : Advanced 3D fs Laser Surface Treatment for Orthopedic Prostheses », ce projet se concentrera sur * Les avancées dans le domaine de l’orthopédie visent à améliorer les résultats et à réduire les taux de rejet. Une machine intègre 5 axes mécaniques et 3 axes optiques pour le traitement de surface en 3D, minimisant l’attachement bactérien sur les prothèses. Les infections liées aux implants posent des problèmes. Le système laser fs offre une solution. Les partenaires apportent une expertise et une technologie cruciales. Notre nouveau logiciel permet une fabrication de pointe utilisant le laser, avec un jumeau numérique de la machine-outil permettant une utilisation virtuelle avant la construction. Le contrôle et l’étalonnage avancés de la rétroaction optimisent la précision, tandis que l’informatique en temps réel améliore les performances.
