Abstracts : In last decade, cluster of research has been
carried out in order to provide better medical
treatment to human. Huge number of surgeries
carried out in the world every day. In this era,
medical surgery is carried out to replace or recur the
damaged bone with artificial components i.e.
Implant. The joint surface is recreated by
replacement of knee with metal components.
Authors have carried out the research to use rapid
prototyping and investment casting route in medical
implant. Knee implant has been selected for the
present research work. Material selected is 316L
Stainless Steel. To characterize the manufactured
parts different tests are performed. To check the
microstructure of the castings microstructure
authors have used Metallurgical Microscope. Use of
Rockwell Hardness Tester is implemented for testing
the surface hardness. While roughness of the casting
surface has checked by using surface finish tester in
order to check the surface characteristics. The
tensile strength of the implant material is checked
on Universal Testing Machine. Authors have
compared the results with present studies.
