Camplex to Launch Delcam OrthoModel,
OrthoMill in Australia
BIRMINGHAM,
UK, Apr 28, 2009 - Delcam reseller Camplex will stage the Australian launch
of the company’s software for the design and manufacture of orthotic insoles at
the Australasian Podiatry Conference to be held in Queensland from 12th to 16th
May. The software is now in use in many UK organisations, including Blatchfords,
Langers, Salts Techstep, Sub 4 and the East Lancashire NHS Trust, so Camplex is
confident of repeating this success in Australia.

OrthoModel can create
“foot-positive” models from scan data
The Delcam software comprises two programs – OrthoModel and OrthoMill for
computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacture (CAM), respectively.
This division increases purchasing flexibility for customers; giving both
practitioners and laboratories the option to choose the combination of software
which best suits their needs.
The combined programs provide a complete solution for the production of
high-quality insoles for both the comfort and medical markets. The entire
process is driven by a series of easy-to-use menus, which incorporate the
terminology used by the industry to describe the various features of the
orthotic. This makes it easy for medical and footwear professionals to use the
software, even those having little previous experience of working with
computers.
Using OrthoModel and OrthoMill reduces the time needed to prepare orthotics
so giving the faster turn-around times that customers demand. In addition, the
use of computer-based design and manufacturing techniques brings the benefits of
accuracy and quality to the orthotics industry that are already enjoyed by other
areas of footwear manufacture.
Although many customers are expected to use both OrthoModel and OrthoMill,
the two programs are completely “open”. OrthoModel can take data from any
scanning system or use manual measurements, while OrthoMill can take models from
most CAD systems and output machining instructions to any milling machine.
Delcam CRISPIN is happy to recommend the type of equipment that is required to
companies that are new to computer-aided manufacturing.
The main addition to the latest version of the software is a new method for
creating “foot-positive” models. This allows patterns to be designed directly
from scan data taken from the patient’s foot to create orthotics in a variety of
materials, including carbon fibre.
A new “cast-dressing” option allows the user to apply corrections directly on
the scan of a patient’s foot when designing orthotics. This process duplicates
on the computer the modifications made to the cast by adding or subtracting
plaster using the traditional methods. In a related development, the scan and
the orthotic can now be overlaid and viewed together, so that the extent of the
changes can be seen easily.
Improvements to existing options include enhancements to the functions for
alignment of the scan to give more precise accuracy of measurement. Dynamic
editing methods, with immediate on-screen feedback, have been added for heel
expansion and for raising or lowering the arch.
In addition, the library of base models provided with the software has been
enhanced and extended. Furthermore, customers are now able to add their own
library of models, add-ons and cut-outs.
