CAD/CAM in Prosthetics and Orthotics
CAD/CAM technology in prosthetics streamlines the process of designing, preparing, and fabricating models used in prosthetic and orthotic care. At NEOPUR, we support laboratories that want to use digital solutions—from working with 3D scans, through file preparation, to the production of precise models made of PUR foam.
Modern CAD/CAM prosthetics is based on a combination of digital design and material machining using CNC technology. This makes it possible to accurately reproduce geometry, ensure repeatability, and reduce the time needed to prepare a model for further work in the laboratory.
CAD/CAM Prosthetics — Support for Dental Laboratories
CAD/CAM prosthetics solutions are particularly useful in dental labs that want to reduce the number of manual steps and increase the predictability of results. The digital process allows users to work with 3D files, analyze shapes, make adjustments, and prepare models ready for milling, thermoforming, or lamination.
NEOPUR offers CAD/CAM services for prosthetics, assisting specialists in preparing models for lower-leg prostheses, thigh prostheses, orthoses, and orthopedic braces. We accept digital files, analyze the documentation, and produce models in accordance with the technical guidelines provided.
Digital Prosthetics in Practice
Digital prosthetics streamlines the process from taking patient measurements to producing a finished working model. Instead of creating a traditional plaster cast, the lab can rely on a 3D scan and a digital design, which is then prepared for further production. This approach helps reduce turnaround time and improve consistency in the work.
At NEOPUR, we produce digital prosthetic models made of PUR foam, which can be used as a base for preparing a denture base or other prosthetic components. The models are dimensionally stable, lightweight, and easy to work with, making them well-suited for a prosthodontist’s daily work.
Digital Denture Design
Digital denture design allows for better control over the shape of the model, the extent of adjustments, and how the surface is prepared for subsequent stages. Based on a 3D scan, a model can be developed that conforms to the patient’s anatomy and the specialist’s requirements, and then fabricated from appropriately selected PUR foam.
Thanks to CAD/CAM technology, it is also easier to reproduce a design in the future. This is important for mass production, revisions, remaking a model, or working with patient records over the long term.
Digital Orthotics and 3D Models
CAD/CAM technology is used not only in prosthetics but also in orthotics. Digital orthotics enables the creation of models for orthoses, braces, and custom orthopedic devices. Working with 3D scans allows for the accurate reproduction of the shape of a limb or the torso and the preparation of a model for further processing.
NEOPUR supports orthotics laboratories in producing PUR foam models for AFO, DAFO, and KAFO orthoses, as well as stabilizing, corrective, and pressure-relieving braces. This solution is designed for specialists who want to combine clinical experience with a modern, digital workflow.
CAD/CAM Services for Prosthetics — Contact NEOPUR
If you are looking for support in the areas of CAD/CAM in prosthetics, 3D model preparation, or the production of PUR foam models, please contact NEOPUR. We help prosthetics and orthotics laboratories implement digital solutions, optimize their workflows, and prepare models ready for further processing.
We support both professionals who are just getting started with digital technology and labs that already use CAD/CAM and need a trusted partner for the production of prosthetic and orthotic models.
