3D Printing in Orthotics

3D printing in orthotics involves creating custom medical devices, like braces or insoles, using advanced digital design and manufacturing techniques. A patient’s foot or limb is scanned to develop a precise digital model, which is then used by a 3D printer to produce a tailored device. This method allows for highly accurate, personalized orthotics that fit better, are lighter, and can be made more quickly than traditional methods. Overall, 3D printing enhances comfort, functionality, and efficiency in providing orthotic solutions for patients.
