Description

This Hip Replacement Stem Test Print is more than just a calibration tool—it’s a functional test of your printer’s limits and a nod to cutting-edge orthopedic design. With a unique geometry inspired by advanced hip replacement stems, this model challenges your printer in several critical areas:

Bed Adhesion Test:
The stem’s 12.5mm diameter head taper is the sole contact point with the bed, offering a demanding test of your printer’s ability to maintain adhesion on a small surface area.

Overhang Stress:
The stem’s 135° neck angle creates a distal end that prints at a 45° angle to the bed, putting your overhang capabilities to the test.

Cooling Challenge:
Featuring overhangs, sharp angles, and lower layer times on narrower sections, this model highlights the effectiveness of your cooling setup, ensuring layers solidify properly without sagging or curling.

Educational Opportunity:
This model is perfect for anyone interested in orthopedic medical devices, showcasing design elements found in cutting-edge hip stems used in joint replacement surgeries.
