Wear is a significant mechanical and clinical problem. To acquire further knowledge on the tribological phenomena that involve freeform mechanical components or medical prostheses, wear tests are performed on biomedical and industrial materials in order to solve or reduce failures or malfunctions due to material loss. Scientific and technological advances in the field of optical scanning allow the application of innovative devices for wear measurements, leading to improvements that were unimaginable until a few years ago. It is therefore important to develop techniques, based on new instrumentations, for more accurate and reproducible measurements of wear. The aim of this work is to discuss the use of innovative 3D optical scanners and an experimental procedure to detect and evaluate wear, comparing this technique with other wear evaluation methods for industrial components and biomedical devices.
磨损是一个重大的机械和临床问题。为了进一步了解涉及自由形状机械部件或医疗假体的摩擦学现象,对生物医学和工业材料进行磨损测试,以解决或减少由于材料损耗导致的故障或失灵。光学扫描领域的科技进步使得创新的磨损测量设备得以应用,带来了直到几年前还无法想象的改进。因此,基于新仪器开发更准确、可重复的磨损测量技术非常重要。这项工作的目的是讨论创新的三维光学扫描仪的使用以及一种检测和评估磨损的实验程序,并将该技术与工业部件和生物医学设备的其他磨损评估方法进行比较。
