SIMTIT ENGINEERING’s mission is to: design and obtain titanium-based metal alloys through an unconventional technology and synergistically combine the effects of each element involved in the titanium matrix, following the manufacture of orthopedic implants for medical applications.
Our expertise and numerous scientific researches contributed to improving the quality of our work, allowing us to offer consulting services for materials engineering and to test and analyse different metal alloys.
The alloys and the proposed implants bring improvements to the field and represent a continuation of the scientific research carried out in other research or ongoing projects (Ti-Mo, Ti-Mo-Si, Ti-Mo-Zr-Ta-Si, etc.), stating that by adding biocompatible elements such as tantalum and zirconium, improved results are estimated compared to those obtained and presented / validated in other previous research. The products obtained bring improvements to the orthopedic field by replacing the alloys currently used (based on Ti6Al4V or CoCrMo) and are challenged by many researchers.
