Abstract: A method of manufacturing an implant for use in a surgical procedure, a corresponding implant and the use thereof during the incorporation of a substance is presented. Specifically anodized and blasted titanium implant substrates are provided with a hydroxyapatite (HA) coating for incorporating for example a therapeutic agent. In particular, an anodizing procedure by an electrolytic process in an alkaline liquid is carried out. Moreover, blasting of the anodized titanium implant substrate is carried out by the presented method. The HA coating can be in the range of 1 to 5 ?m, particularly in the range of 1 to 3 ?m. A local delivery of the active pharmaceutical ingredient is achieved by the implant of the present invention. Moreover, the implant allows for the removal of the implant without damaging surrounding tissue or a bone. Moreover, the HA coating is provided to the substrate such that enhanced fixation as measured by pull-out force is achieved whilst having a relatively low removal torque.

Abstract: A method for loading a hydroxyapatite coated implant with a therapeutic agent including the steps of providing an implant and applying a hydroxyapatite coating on a surface of the implant. The hydroxyapatite coated implant is contacted with a solution including the therapeutic agent. The hydroxyapatite coated implant and solution is heated to temperature of about 60° C. to about 100° C. Pressure is applied to the hydroxyapatite coated implant and solution from about 2 bar to about 10 bar, to load the hydroxyapatite coated implant with the therapeutic agent. An implant made according to the method has sustained therapeutic agent delivery and includes a base and a biomimetic hydroxyapatite coating disposed on a surface thereof.

Abstract: This invention relates to a welding carriage operable to drive across a surface of a work piece having a joint to be welded. The welding carriage comprises a number of wheels, where each wheel is pivotal around an axle and where each wheel is a magnetic wheel; the welding carriage further comprises means for supporting a welding device wherein at least one of the wheels can be flexed inwardly or outwardly so that the welding carriage can travel over curved surfaces. The welding carriage can travel over magnetizable surfaces having any direction, e.g. orientation in space. The welding carriage can carry a laser sensor arrangement arranged to detect the position as well as the direction of a joint to be welded, so that the welding carriage is applicable for performing fully automated welding.
