The SLS Edge: Precision at Scale

24-Hour Turnaround

Digitized production cuts the cycle from 3D scan to finished insoles to just 24 hours—boosting efficiency and reducing patient wait times.

Cost Savings

EReduced manual labor, fewer consumables, and affordable hardware lower total production costs by approximately 15–17%.

Simplified Workflow

It transforms complex manual steps (like mold making) into a digital workflow (scanning and designing) with easy-to-use software and batch printing capabilities.

Seamless Digital Logistics

Satellite locations only need a scanner—foot data is sent instantly to the main facility, eliminating slow and costly mold transportation.

Sustainability

On-demand printing removes single-use foam molds and chemical waste, while unused nylon powder is highly recyclable.

Innovation Leads Insole Production

Enables thinner, lighter, and more complex geometries—including targeted pressure zones—that traditional methods cannot achieve.

A Streamlined Workflow

High-precision 3D foot scanning captures digital data to create personalized models for custom SLS 3d printed shoe insoles.
