The Multi-Station Hip Joint Simulator is a specialized tribological testing device designed to simulate friction and wear behavior of artificial hip joints under physiological gait conditions. Driven by motors and servo-pneumatic loading systems, it reproduces anatomically realistic motions of the femoral head against the acetabular cup with dynamic bi-axial loading. The simulator supports multiple stations running in parallel, providing a cost-effective solution for long-term wear testing, research, and quality evaluation of hip implants.
Standards
ASTM F732 – Reciprocating Pin-on-Plate Wear Test (applied to joint simulators).

Features
(1) Multi-station design allows 6 or 12 hip joints to run simultaneously.
(2) Anatomically accurate mounting reproduces physiological gait loading.
(3) Dual-axis motion (Flexion-Extension + Abduction-Adduction) with a π/2 phase difference.
(4) Dynamic double-peak load curve closely approximates real walking load profiles.
(5) Servo-pneumatic loading ensures stable operation with minimal maintenance.
(6) Mechanical cam generates load curve, avoiding complex real-time control systems.
(7) High repeatability of sample positioning allows intermittent inspection and continuous testing.
(8) Large-volume lubricant reservoir reduces the risk of overheating serum-like lubricants.
