Arthroplasty systems and devices, and related methods

摘要

Systems for manufacturing arthroplasty jigs are disclosed. The systems include positioning components for positioning an arthroplasty jig blank in a machining device (e.g., a computer numerical control (CNC) machine). Arthroplasty jig blanks that may be used in the systems can include an arm fixture component configured to be coupled to the positioning component. Coupling the arm fixture component to the positioning component positions the jig blank body for machining by the machining device. In addition, positioning components, arthroplasty jig blanks, and methods for making arthroplasty jig blanks are disclosed.

主权项

1. A blank from which an arthroplasty jig is to be manufactured, the blank comprising:
a body comprising a shape and size that approximates the arthroplasty jig, the body being configured such that the entirety of the arthroplasty jig is manufactured from the body; and a member extending from the body and configured to support the body during manufacturing, the member being formed with the body as a unitary structure formed from a single mold.
