Collaborating
for impact
Working closely with clinicians, families and researchers, we aim to transform how orthotics are made to achieve the best-possible client outcomes.
Innovative clinical services, leading edge digital manufacture
3D Printed Orthotics offer the benefits of customisation, control, structural integrity, fit and repeatability, which enables better client outcomes at comparable costs.
Innovative clinical services, leading edge digital manufacture
Our team combines decades of experience from across Prosthetics and Orthotics with engineering and technology to achieve previously unattainable orthotic solutions.
Why work with us
What will you enjoy?
Digital Workflow Benefits
-
Working with our Virtual Technicians means you get the benefits of digital workflows without having to become a CAD expert yourself.
-
Our end-to-end process is proven to give an average 132.5% increase in weekly capacity to provide AFO’s - nearly 2.5 times as many!
-
Get first time fit and highly accurate, repeatable results with our Expert Clinical Profiles. You get consistent results even when some clinicians are still learning.
Additive Manufacturing Benefits
-
Our Virtual Technicians can do things that are hard to achieve in plaster. Get faster integration of 3D printing advancements, and access to new componentry on the market.
-
Our designs are mechanically tested and TGA certified. Our Virtual Technicians are qualified Engineers and CAD specialists.
