Abstract

The paper presents a study based on the experimental research on the surface quality of the medical implants used for the partial resurfacing of the femoral condylar surface of the knee obtained by single point incremental forming process. The present paper discusses the measuring of the roughness of parts obtained through the previously mentioned process and highlights the factors that influence it. The initial roughness of the punch, the punch diameter, and the friction coefficient between the punch and the blank were considered. Also, the mathematical models that define different roughness parameters were determined.
