Experimental Analysis Of Parameters Influencing The Bone Burring Process, Jonathan Kusins
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
The experimental quantification of the bone removal characteristics associated with bone burring represents a desirable outcome mainly for the selection of optimal parameters. An experimental apparatus was developed that allowed for concurrent measurement of three outputs associated with the bone removal process (cutting force, vibration, and temperature) as a function of various burring-specific parameters. Initial process trends were established on a uniform sawbone analog through use of a fully balanced multivariate statistical analysis. A smaller set of optimal and suboptimal parameters were further validated using a porcine femur. From the parameters tested, an optimal tool configuration, to avoid high temperature …
