Trabecular Titanium
Trabecular Titanium (TT) is Enovis' proprietary 3D-printed technology, tailored to produce a highly porous biomaterial, that consistently offers reliable fixation, enhanced biological features, and proven performance.
Pioneering heritage since 2007
TT stands on a foundation of proven expertise and innovation, establishing trust with surgeons and serving as a benchmark of excellence in the industry. Recognized for its performance and reliability, TT reflects our long-standing leadership in 3D printing.
Evolving innovation
TT has continually evolved through research, collaboration, and design excellence to meet the demands of modern orthopedic care. Enabling limitless geometries, TT can drive the next generation of orthopedic advancements.
Unparalleled versatility
TT applications are developed with a deep commitment to empowering surgeons to meet patient’s need as they face a wide range of clinical scenarios across segments, from primary to complex revisions, from standard implants to highly customized ProMade solutions.
About
Originally developed to address surgeons' need for strong primary fixation and to overcome the geometrical limitations of traditional materials, TT Technology pioneered 3D printing in orthopedics.
Patented in 2007 following an orthopedics-first investment in 3D printing research that started in 2005, TT is now used worldwide. TT structure is comprised of a unique, fully interconnected open structure with three-dimensional, complex hexagonal cells engineered to facilitate cell migration and differentiation favoring bone formation, while ensuring also high mechanical properties.
TT is created from Titanium, extensively used in reconstructive orthopedics for its biocompatibility and mechanical performance. Titanium powder is selectively melted layer by layer with a high-energy beam, enabling any design with seamless continuity between the bulk substrate and a highly porous structure tailored to guarantee consistently high mechanical properties. Its high elasticity closely emulates that of human bone, promoting physiological load distribution and reducing the risk of stress shielding.
The first TT implant was a primary acetabular cup. Since then, our ability to harness the technology, combined with continuous research, tailored processes and close collaboration with surgeons, has resulted in a wide variety of successful applications, while consistently maintaining TT features and processes.
We are committed to restoring motion for life. With Trabecular Titanium, we’re #CreatingBetterTogether, delivering smart, personalized, and effective care for patients.
With TT, we can shape the future of orthopedics.
Reliable fixation
The high friction between TT porous surface and cancellous bone reduces the risk of micro-motions resulting in increased initial stability.
Biological features
Robust evidence shows the TT structure promotes osteoblast differentiation and vascularization, supporting effective bone formation and secondary stability.
Proven performance
A trusted combination of tailored 3D-printed technology and consistent material properties drives clinical outcomes.
Our products
The TT portfolio includes an unparalleled range of standard and customized implants for hip, knee, shoulder, and elbow surgeries, suitable for primary and revision cases, and designed to restore motion even in the most complex cases.
Our ongoing research and collaborations with the brightest minds keep us at the forefront of innovation, continually expanding and enhancing our TT product range.
