heal.abstract	Wear and simulator testing are complicated tasks. Controlled wear testing should not be routinely done to qualify a material, but rather to elucidate wear mechanisms. It, generally, may be described as a machine used to test a joint replacement under conditions approximating those occurring in the human body. Simulator tests, on the other hand, can be used to conduct accelerated protocols that replicate/simulate particularly extreme conditions, thereby establishing the limits of performance for the material. The present paper is dealing with the study of the most common simulators, and the design of a new one that has been analysed by a CAD software to meet the aforementioned study and the ISO 14242 Standard recommendations.	en
