CAD/CAM stands for Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing. At iFab, we use milling robots and 3D printing to precisely manufacture positive models for orthoses, prosthetic sockets, as well as seat shells and support mattresses.

We offer a variety of soft and hard foams for the milling process. Soft foams are used for seat cushions and mattresses, while hard foams serve as precise models that form the basis for the production of aids made of thermoplastics and fiber composites.

The milling process is characterized by its high speed, which enables fast production. In 3D printing, we use the FDM process for precise structures and the Multi Jet Fusion process specifically for definitive supplies.
