Knee

Orthopaedic device researchers and manufacturers use MTS single- and multi-station knee testing solutions to analyze the strength and fatigue of basic material properties, to simulate the motion of the knee to determine wear, and to study bone cement and its properties.

Dynamic Test Systems
Use Bionix servohydraulic test systems to study material properties, joints and structures, surgical techniques, and wear on joint replacements and implants.  Bionix dynamic load frames are flexible and upgradeable, to accommodate varying levels of testing complexity.

Knee Test Fixtures
MTS offers a multiaxial knee wear fixture that works with Bionix servohydraulic load frames to deliver active flexion testing in four degrees of freedom to simulate level walking, descending / ascending stairs, and sitting down / rising from a chair.  It includes a chamber and catch basin to simulate in vivo conditions.

Multistation Wear Simulators
Our compact Bionix Multistation Knee Wear Simulators provide long-term wear, fatigue, and durability tests of orthopaedic devices and related materials.  Bionix knee simulators allow for kinematic measurements such as extension/flexion, medial/lateral, and internal/external rotation.

Software
Our full complement of software applications will meet your biomedical testing requirements.  Use our MultiPurpose TestWare software to easily perform advanced dynamic tests, both standard and non-standard.
