Great video guys. I have been an Orthotic Technician for 20 years now and this is the first time I have seen how someone else or another company manufacturers the stuff I make. Makes me feel part of a bigger group rather than just the small company I work for.
We modify enough room into the model to accommodate adding pads near the end of the process. The pads that we use are very soft and low durometer, the hot plastic under vacuum would permanently compress this type of padding too much to still be effective.
Hello, Thank you for demonstrating!! I live in Washington DC and I have a brother who live in Ethiopia( Africa).He had a car accident and he didn't walk for the last 12 years and I am trying to buy for him KAFO with out prescription but I couldn't find where and how I buy it. can you please please please help me? Thanks in advance!
This might be a dumb question, but why did you choose to put the pads in the malleoli pads at the end and not before the draping when you could have skived and put the pads underneath the nylon stockinette (baby powder could then be used as a separator during the vacuuming)?
Dean Hansen Perhaps in some designs, but it hasn't been an issue. We use full length padded footplates, something no one else that I know of does. It works very well for us.

Two people to do transfer paper. !!!!!!!!! Unheard of .hi I make orthopedic stuff not going to say as I'm a supervisor..man that would be great. I have to use cardboard rolls silacon wrap it tight and apply it with one hand and pull out the wrinkles with the other on poly pro . I also have to do p zot by myself you need a new employee??? jk good work Bud
Erin Tatum A full footplate adds no benefit, it just makes the shoe tighter. There is no added rigidity with a polypro footplate that is flat. Short answer, easier to fit in the shoe.

Fantastic video too, you guys are serious craftsmen!
Nice work man
It's zonolite, aka vermiculite. It makes the models easier to rectify, plaster build-ups stick better. It helps and it's cheap.

The material we add to plaster is zonolite, sometimes called vermiculite

At 7:17 which hand machine is used to cut AFO plastic?

A full footplate will keep the orthosis from cutting into the sulcus of the foot and aid in toe pick up.

At 7:17 which hand machine is that you are using to cut AFO ???

If I had no insurance, how much would these be? I've been through so many braces that just aren't good.
At 6.42 which cutter is that?
its called a 5 in 1 leather cutter I believe. Or at least that will get you closer in the right direction!
Bowl leg ?
Is there no sound with this video?
I guess not. My techs made the video.

Is this AFO rigid design?
very nice process thanks
Why did you choose to use a shorter footplate, rather than a full foot that other ground reaction designs use?

Advanced Orthopedic Designs Thank you for the fast reply
can u plz explain the trimline being made
Proximally the trimline extends to the tibial tubercle. Medially and laterally they extend beyond the apices of the maleoli.
Advanced Orthopedic Designs thanks
at 7:38 I am looking at some sweet buffing machines. Do you think I can use a 1/2 hp motor to serve my needs?
My router is 1/2 hp and works well.
Thank you!
I hope I am not bothering you but would this work instead of buying a router? www.arbemachine.com/View/Two-Speed-Polishing-Motor
and I was going to attach this to it www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002IXQ4W/ref=s9_acsd_hps_bw_c_x_1_w
What is the vermiculite for?
It makes the plaster less dense so it's lighter to work with.
What is the function of zonolite?
+saiful syazwan mohf fadzil Zololite is a light weight filler. It makes the plaster more absorbant and I think it makes plaster buildups stick better.
Thank you for the fast reply. great information
Holly
