WORLD PATENTED 3D SCAN PODOACTIVA

Our belief in continuous improvement and evolution of the evaluation and diagnosis protocols of our patients is embodied by R+D+i These are our stand out pillars of Podoactiva and our clinical partners. These values have made clinical excellence, added value and patient outcomes all vital parts of our clinical processes. As a result of this work, in 2008 we developed the 3D Scan Podoactiva, worldwide patented, and unsurpassed in accuracy by any other system on the market.

The vocation for continuous improvement and evolution of the processes of study and diagnosis of our patients and R+D+i are differentiating pillars of partners, which has made excellence and added value part of all phases of our processes. As a result of this work, in 2008 we developed the 3D Scan Podoactiva, worldwide patented, and unsurpassed in accuracy by any other system on the market.

What differentiates the 3D Scan Podoactiva?

Most of the plantar scanners that currently exist obtain the image of the foot by stepping on glass, but with the Podoactiva system, the foot is wrapped in an elastic membrane which allows generation of a virtual electronic image of the weight bearing foot, and provide the optimal electronic image of the loaded foot to suit any diagnosis and subsequently develop our custom-made insoles.

3D Scan

In client cases where the foot impression is obtained directly resting on the glass or off the floor with an iPad scan, both the image of the heel and the forefoot are altered, and the plantar foot accuracy appears significantly diminished, this is fundamental data for the optimal design and manufacture of a 3D printed orthotic. In the case of the Podoactiva 3D Scan, we capture the foot in a close real-world situation, weightbearing, windlass adjustable, collecting the soft tissue and simulating the situation inside the shoe.

All this data is processed thanks to a specific software, and later they go to the department of engineering for template design. In this process, finite element calculation concepts are applied that allow a virtual simulation of the behavior of the insole on the patient’s foot, considering its geometry, weight and dynamics.

As a result, perfectly personalized insoles are obtained adapted to the biometrics and anatomy of each patient, allowing Podoactiva insoles to be of high quality, thinner, more flexible and comfortable, and with greater dynamic response and elastic memory, also thanks to the use of exclusive materials within in its manufacture.

Our exclusive scanning system It is applied in all the hospitals and clinics where Podoactiva is present, both in Spain and international clinics.

About 250 podiatrists have been trained in the facilities of the central headquarters of Podoactiva in Huesca, the largest space dedicated to the podiatry and biomechanics in Europe, to learn the 3D Scan Podoactiva methodology, as well as the company’s own protocols, for its subsequent application.

3D Scan

In the cases in which the mold is obtained directly resting on the glass, both the image of the heel and the forefoot appear flattened, and the plantar vault appears significantly diminished, fundamental data for the optimal design of the insole. In the case of the 3D Scan, the foot is recreated in real situation of the patient, collecting the soft tissue and simulating the situation inside the shoe.

As a result, perfectly personalized insoles are obtained adapted to the anatomy of each patient, allowing Podoactiva insoles to be of high quality, thinner, more flexible and comfortable, and with greater dynamic response and elastic memory, also thanks to the use of exclusive materials in its manufacture.

Our exclusive scanning system It is applied in all the hospitals and clinics where Podoactiva is present, both in Spain and international clinics.

About 150 podiatrists have been trained in the facilities of the central headquarters of Podoactiva in Huesca, the largest space dedicated to the podiatry and biomechanics from all over Europe, to learn the 3D Scan Podoactiva methodology, as well as the company’s own protocols, for its subsequent application.
