Popis: Metal injection moulding is a method by which metal parts are produced near net form by using metal feedstock. Current medical implants are products that must meet rigorous material, technology and functionality specifications. Corrosion resistance, bio-compatibility, bio-adhesion, bio-functionality and accessibility are the main medical desires of all medical implants. This work focused on the design and production of ulna plate implants using metal injection moulding. To be details on this, maximum stress and shrinkage of ulna implant components are studied. The size after demoulded from cavity was measured and compare to the cavity size. The range of shrinkage is observed by weights lost after debinding process that the result shows 0.1 gram decreased. The average maximum stress is 5.2749 MPa. Based on the result, the products are brittle after debinding process.
