Step 2 - Download Software
After you have registered an account you may then Download Master Setup.
Step 4 - Preparing a Digital Prescription
After installing the latest version of our software you can begin learning how to digitally prescribe and design orthoses.
We recommend that you start by learning the basics of digital prescription by watching the video below - Preparing a Digital EVA Prescription.
Step 5 - 3D Scan Alignment
If you are wanting to digitally prescribe and send your scans and script to a machining centre for manufacture then you will not need to proceed further.
Just click 'Submit Job to Laboratory' from PodView and your files will be sent over the cloud directly to us.
Please remember that by default your digital prescription will be sent to our Head Machining Centre in Adelaide, Australia.
If you are wanting to design your own orthotic models then your next step is learning how to align your 3D scans according to clinical measurement by watching the video below - Aligning 3D Scans in FotoView.
Step 6 - Designing Orthotic Models
After your 3D scans have been aligned according to clinical measurement you may create an orthotic model and apply changes according to requirements.
We recommend starting with basic model adjustments and learning how regional fences work. Watch the video below - Adjusting Regional Fences using Editor and get a feel for making interactive changes to the orthotic shape using the program.
When you are happy with your design click 'Make NC'. This will generate a file for machining.
Once you have made an NC file for the left and right orthoses you can click 'Submit Job to Laboratory' from the client tab.
Your orthotic models will then be sent over the cloud to our Head Machining Centre in Adelaide, Australia for manufacture.
Where to go from here?
There are many more online tutorials for those that want to learn more.
If you are a clinician wanting control over orthotic design we recommend you submit your models to a machining centre.
Just get in touch with your local machining centre to organise some online or face-to-face training for you and your staff.
By mastering 3D scanning, measurement, alignment and modelling you will be well on your way to having complete control of orthotic manufacture.
Remember, if you want to manufacture your own orthoses then contact us directly and we can recommend optimal hardware for your requirements.
We have setup many orthotic laboratories for people using the software so we can offer some excellent advice to get you started.
Good luck!
