The Custom Orthotic Insoles Technology Forum will be taking place on the 19th
- 20th May 2011 at Bath University and is the first event to focus on discussing new technologies and processes designed to assist Practitioners and Laboratories in prescribing and manufacturing Custom Orthotic Insoles.
Our guest speakers are leading the way in developing and using different types of technology, from hardware devices to help measure biomechanical features, pressure and anatomical form, CADCAM tools for plasterless manufacture, as well as new ideas for increasing productivity and reducing manufacturing costs.
Topics for discussion will include:
• Can layered based (additive) manufacturing be used to make insoles?
• Is it really possible for an orthotics laboratory to become completely paperless?
• Can digital scanners completely replace the cast and foam box process?
• Can CADCAM really deliver the efficiency gains it claims?
• How can liquid nitrogen help you to manufacture ultra thin Polyurethane and EVA custom orthotic insoles?
The event is educational and will expose attendees to new and emerging technologies including hands on experience with a tour of University of Bath’s machining facilities as well as contribute towards your continued professional development.
There will also be an opportunity for delegates and speakers to network during the sessions and breaks to share experiences, as well as giving you time to explore the Roman Spa Town of Bath with us.
I hope this helps address any questions and we hope that you’ll take to time to attend – for a full breakdown of speakers and subjects please wait for the link that will be posted next week.
Thanks again for your interest
