Abstrakt     The paper describes the use of an 6-d.o.f. industrial robot for kinematic tests of synovial joints. The well known hybrid force-position control method was combined with stiffness method to meet the requrements of the medical application, where safety is of exteme importance. The tests were performed on a model of human knee. The geometrical model of human knee was built using CAD system. Kinematic data measured with the robot have been passed to the geometrical model, where different surgical methods of replacing knee ligaments were compared.
