MEDINA SANCHEZ, Mariana  e  GARZON-ALVARADO, Diego A. Analytical and experimental study of the properties of the bone tissue before machining loads (turning lathe). Rev Cubana Invest Bioméd [online]. 2008, vol.27, n.3-4. ISSN 0864-0300.

The results obtained in the study of bone machinability, specifically the turning lathe process, are presented in order to collect data on bone manufacturability and machinability. This article showed in a detailed way, the methodology of the experiments carried out, as well as the selection of the measurenent instruments used to obtain reliable information on the bone machining process, which is useful to found the design and construction of new implants, accessible to the public in general and produced by enterprises at large scale
