The effect of thermal treatment on the properties of SLM samples with a bionic design

Abstract

This article shows the possibility of additive technology applied to medical implants. It’s shown the difference of physical properties such as elastic module of bones, implants made of traditional technology and implants made of additive technology. Porous structure has been chosen for future implants through designing its and further calculation of its mechanical properties using software such as Solid Works, Logos and Ansys. To confirm the right choice of design of structure we manufactured samples with using Rosatom 3D printer, made heat treatment and tested them.
