Orliman, Spanish company of Grupo Cinfa specialized in the development of orthopedic solutions, presents the new line ERGOTEC 3Da range that includes the first orthopedic corset (orthosis) developed with 3D technology.
This line, developed both in the injury treatment and rehabilitation, represents a pioneering application of the use of 3D in the manufacture of orthoses. Thus, this technology allows fully customize designswith the aim of improving the quality of life of patients with bone, muscle or ligament injuries, as well as people with vertebral deformities.

And it is that, through design and printing in three dimensions, it is possible to simulate the effect that the device will have on the patient himself before manufacturing itevaluating if the correction of the functional or structural aspects of the neuromuscular system is adequate or if, on the contrary, it is necessary to modify the pressure zones prior to their placement.
The manufacture of the 3D orthopedic corset consists of several phases. In an initial, the digitization of the patient, by scanning the affected limb. In the second phase, the orthosis design. The combination of medical experience, proprietary algorithms and the incorporation of the latest technologies allows for 3D modeling of the custom device. The process ends with the three-dimensional printing of the personalized orthosis through high-performance printers, which make custom design and manufacturing possible.
The result of this process are more comfortable, lighter and hygienic devices, which ensure greater acceptance by the patient, guaranteeing the completion of the treatments. In addition, the use of 3D technology allows shorten manufacturing times.
