The use of single point incremental forming for customized implants of unicondylar knee arthroplasty: a review

Abstract: Introduction: The implantable devices are having enormous market. These products are basically made by traditional manufacturing process, but for the custom-made implants Incremental Sheet Forming is a paramount alternative. Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) is a manufacturing process to form intricate, asymmetrical components. It forms the component using stretching and bending by maintaining materials crystal structure. SPIF process can be performed using conventional Computer Numerical Control (CNC) m… Show more

“…The SPIF process has widespread applications in automobile, shipbuilding, aerospace, prototyping industries and also in biomedical sectors. 8,9 In spite of several lucrative advantages, the major setback for SPIF process is its higher fabrication time for which the productivity of the component drastically reduces. Furthermore, it has been observed that the formability during SPIF process is dependent on the forming tool diameter, the feed rate of the tool, step size, wall angle of the formed component, material properties, lubricant condition and tool path design etc.…”

“…It has broadened its application domain since its emergence. This method has applications in numerous sectors such as biomedical sector (denture base, 44 ankle prosthesis, 45 foot orthosis, facial, cranial and cadaver implants, 4655 knee implants, 56 surgical tools 57 ) and architectural industry (decorative elements and artifacts, 3D roof structure at RWTH, 58 sandwich panels, 59 historic façade construction 32 ). Other prototyping applications cover in aeronautic industry (Gas Turbine diffuser cone, 32 airfoils 60 ), and automotive sector (vehicle head lights reflector, 61 engine intake parts, and heat shields, 62 car body, 63 car fender, 64 car tail light bracket, 65 powertrain guards, 32 motorcycle exhaust pipe cover, 66 Ford Motors logo plate, 67 hood parts of Honda S800, Toyota iQ logo mark on side door panel, 68 and other general parts and dies (shower basin molds for thermoforming, 69 solar cooker, 70 HVAC baffles for efficiency, HVAC shrouds for flow pattern, 32 and bullet train (Shinkansen) components 67 ).…”

“…ISF is a very suitable technology for the biomedical field due to the need for highly customized unique parts. Special applications include ankle supports [14,15], dental prostheses [16], facial implants [17], cranial plates [18][19][20][21], knee prostheses [22,23], and clavicle implants [24]. The application methodology is based on computed tomography (CT) that is used to produce high accuracy patient-specific computeraided design (CAD) models from which the shape of the implants can be established.…”
