Hello List,
As a clinic we have recently purchased one of the Vorum scanners and have
been using their software for both O&P at our clinic. Pulling check sockets
and laminating definitive sockets have been an easy transition but we have
found that draping AFOs etc has been less successful. Any form of nylon
seems to become fused into the plastic and creates a real headache for our
techs. Potentially our vacuum is too powerful when draping or maybe there
is a separator that we are unaware of. If anybody as been through this
process and is willing to share a solution to make draping more successful
I would be extremely appreciative.
Thanks!
