Digital orthotic and prosthesis manufacturing

Digitalisation is here to stay in orthopaedic technology. Since 2012, Shapemakers has been helping companies switch from manual working methods to modern, digital production.

We work with orthopaedic workshops, rehabilitation centres and manufacturers to optimise the entire process: from fitting to final product.

With our knowledge of 3D scanning, CAD/CAM software and advanced manufacturing techniques, we make the production process smarter, faster and more consistent. This creates more efficiency and less margin for error at every step.

Shapemakers

From manual to digital orthopaedics

Digitalisation within orthopaedics goes beyond technology. It offers a new way of working, in which craftsmanship is supported by data, accuracy and speed. Shapemakers guides your organisation step by step in introducing this digital way of working.

We provide support for:

Choosing and deploying the right 3D scanning technology
Designing with CAD/CAM software
Linking digital files to production

And our goal? That is to realise a reliable and future-proof orthopaedic production process for every company.
