Essentium, Pflugerville, Texas, and Vorum, Vancouver, British Columbia, have formed a global partnership designed to deliver 3D printing to O&P practitioners that will allow for the production of mass-customized O&P devices at speed and scale.
“Our partnership with Essentium means we can offer O&P customers the confidence that they will have the device they desire every time they print,” said Carl Saunders, Vorum CEO and founder.
“Our 3D-printing platform combined with Vorum’s expertise will not only help O&P customers embrace a faster, more efficient method for producing custom-made orthotics and prosthetics, but the medical devices will also be produced with high quality and durability,” said Blake Teipel, Essentium CEO and cofounder.
