hyperMILL Medical Solutions - Machining for Mankind
The medical device industry is growing fast and the time and cost pressure is high. Reducing costs-per-part is crucial. How can you meet these high requirements?
The right CAM system is an important factor within your process chain. With hyperMILL you can quickly and easily generate safe NC codes: whether in prototyping, toolmaking or production. All around the globe, well-known medical device manufacturers and suppliers use hyperMILL successfully. Additionally, they can always rely on our manufacturing know-how.
Part diversity – flexibility is key
Are you milling prototypes from a solid block? Do you make forging dies and thermoforming tools? Or do you have secondary operations after investment castings or printed implants? hyperMILL has the right toolpaths for the entire range of parts in the medical device industry. Generate secure NC codes easily and flexibly and significantly reduce your costs-per-part.
Variety of materials – CAM system as an important factor
Are you challenged trying to machine titanium, cobalt-chrome or UHMWPE? Use the powerful tool database with interfaces to catalogs from well-known tool manufacturers.
Suitable technology parameters combined with proven 2.5D, 3D or 5-axis strategies are crucial for success. Even the most demanding materials can be easily machined with hyperMILL.
Automate with ease
Do you produce many part families in several standard sizes every day?
Automate CAM programming of bone plates, knee implants or forging dies for hip stems with hyperMILL. Numerous, successfully implemented automation projects with our customers speak for themselves. You can take advantage of this enormous potential for time savings as well!

Knee Replacement
Every component of a knee prosthesis has different manufacturing challenges: A variety of geometries of the femoral and tibial component. Material that is difficult to machine, such as cobalt-chromium in the femoral part and UHMWPE in inlays. With hyperMILL you are prepared for all challenges of knee implant milling.
Femoral component
hyperMILL's 3D and 5-axis strategies are perfect for complex geometries. You can achieve huge time savings with barrel cutters or use special tools with the “Free Tip Geometry” function.
Thanks to the digital twin of the virtual machine, you can already see in the simulation what will happen on the machine.
Inlay
Benefit from efficient toolpaths for the machining of knee implant inlays. Ultra-high-molecular weight-polyethylene is not easy to machine. A powerful tool database and interfaces to tool catalogs guarantee reliable processes and excellent surfaces when machining engineered plastics.
Hip Replacement
Producing hip shafts in all variants requires know-how in many areas. Prototypes made from a solid block or forging dies for production can be machined comfortably, in highest quality.
Hip Stem
You want to machine prototypes as well as production components? With hyperMILL you can comfortably generate perfect toolpaths for your machine tool. Thanks to proven strategies and technology parameters, you can process titanium alloys safely and reliably. The use of special and form tools with hyperMILL is also possible without any problems.
Forging Die
Toolmaking for medical parts? hyperMILL
Manufacture forging dies for hip shafts in superior quality. Thanks to excellent, transition-free surfaces, you minimize secondary operations. Do you manufacture a variety of part families? CAM automation reduces programming times significantly.
Bone Plates
Successfully milling bone plates depends on many factors. Machining them in just one setup requires a CAM system with reliable 5-axis capabilities. hyperMILL offers reliable toolpaths for demanding titanium materials.
Bone Plates
Milling bone plates reliably, in just one setup – no problem with hyperMILL's 5-axis strategies. Achieve the best surface finishes without transitions and reduce secondary operations to a minimum. You can also program conical threads with form tools quickly and easily with hyperMILL.
Clear competitive advantage!
Do you manufacture many bone plate variants in different sizes? Program them in record time with hyperMILL's unique automation technology. Just contact us for more information.
Spinal Implants
Implants for spines are extremely diverse. Cervical plates, spinal cages or stabilization systems challenge manufacturers for various reasons. Here, too, it is important to get to the NC code quickly and comfortably.
Spinal Cages
Do you mill spinal implants from a solid plastic block? PEEK machining is a no-brainer thanks to proven roughing and finishing strategies. Toolpaths from hyperMILL ensure machining results of the highest quality.
Cervical Plate
Milling cervical plates from a titanium bar requires suitable strategies and cutting parameters. With hyperMILL and its powerful tool database, you can program and mill your parts conveniently and efficiently. Thanks to reliable 5-axis technology, even in just one setup.
Power Systems
They are important supporters in the daily business of surgery. Often finish machining of the casted housings is necessary. But this increases production costs enormously. That's why it is important to quickly get to safe NC code. No matter if it is simple tapping or complex 5-axis machining. hyperMILL offers you the necessary flexibility and user-friendliness.
Containers
The development of containers to hold kits with sterile medical devices is commonplace. For the manufacturing of thermoforming tools, hyperMILL already plays an important role for many of our customers. Because with the right CAM software you save programming and machining times. Feature recognition can be helpful to organize pockets and holes. Avoid time-consuming ball mill finishing and start finishing in record time. With conical barrel cutters and our hyperMILL MAXX Machining finishing module, you can manufacture your tools much more economically.
