Abstract
A method for texturing of selected surfaces on a spinal implant. The implant is pretreated with an EDM process by passing the implant by an electrode along an axis, at a predetermined speed, voltage and current. The implant is further conditioned by AlOgrit blasting followed by an acidic solution bath and process water rinse, which yields a surface porosity and topography conducive to osseointegration on the surface of the spinal implant.
