The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) leads the industry in evaluating hip implants for safety, reliability, and mechanical properties. As demand for hip implants increases, manufacturers rely on our advanced testing lab to ensure that products consistently meet rigorous performance and safety standards.
What is Hip Implant Testing?
Hip implant testing involves tests that check implant performance and safety. ISO and ASTM publish standards for these tests, ensuring implants meet essential criteria:
Corrosion Tests
Corrosion tests ensure that a hip implant’s metal components have adequate anti-corrosion properties.
Fatigue and Static Tests
Fatigue tests determine a device’s endurance properties, and static tests evaluate the device’s stiffness, strength, and deformation characteristics.
Wear Tests
Wear tests simulate material degradation, accurately simulating how hip implants break down and weaken over time.
