Bone punch

Bone punch CAD model

With the help of simulation calculations that took into account the nonlinear material behavior of the bone punch, the geometry was optimized in collaboration with the client so that no further material failure occurred when using the punch.

Project description

For an internationally active biomedical company, the geometry of a bone punch that had shown material damage in clinical use was optimized. To this end, a simulation model was created that could be used to map the kinematics of the bone punch's movement in an FE model.
