3D CAD MODELS ARE AVAILABLE FOR SELECT BONES


3D CAD models can be helpful when sizing implants or other hardware for workshops or biomechanical study. Both external and internal anatomy where applicable.

3D CAD models are available in SLDPRT, IGES, PARASOLID, and STEP file formats.

FE Finite Element models are used for computer simulated experimentation (finite element analysis). The anatomy and material properties of these files are based on the composite bone production line. FE models are used to optimize, compare and test orthopaedic devices and surgical instruments. Validated Finite Element (FE) models are available for select composite bones and biomechanical spine.

FE models are digitally available in ABAQUS, ADPL, and NASTRAN file formats.

Use Digital Anatomy Media when sizing hardware for biomechanical study

NOTE: Sawbones digital files are created via a high accuracy 3D scan of a physical molded bone. Be aware that subtle manufacturing tolerances exist between molded bones and the 3D data may not be a perfect match to every molded bone. Dimensional variations up to two percent are possible. Please contact us if you have any concerns about your intended application.
