Thanks for the emails everyone. Looks like people are definitely putting this to practice a bit. Super cool.
1.Almost all of our 1st check sockets are 3D prints.
1. Cast (professional hands, knowledge of tissues, compressive systems)
2. DigiScan by Lifenabled and a structure scanner on an iPad to scan, reduce, elongate.
3. Get file printed. Protosthetics or in house.
2.
I almost exclusively use 3D scanning, modeling and printing for prosthetic sockets. I use Standard Cyborg's Design Studio software and app. Very simple software that has made a huge difference in time and efficiency. Message me if you have any specific questions. I've been using this for a few years now.
3.We just bought the Create O&P 1400 and have started printing check sockets.
Fitting the first one next week (fingers crossed)
I feel it will be beneficial to us to print the check socket in house. We'll
then modify the scan as needed and still send to our usual c-fab for
definitive fabrication from CAD model. IF we can continue doing several
check sockets a week, it should pay for itself in a quarter. Not sure how
much more we'll be doing with it, but so far I'm impressed. Would love to
hear your other responses.
