Instruments for customizing corrective insoles – the use of 3D foot scanners

If the traditional measurement and detection methods are used to make corrective custom insoles, the data accuracy will be relatively low, and it will be very time-consuming, and the insoles produced will not be so good in terms of experience and comfort.

However, now, with high-tech equipment such as foot 3D scanners, the whole process will be much faster, the efficiency has been greatly improved, and it also has the following advantages.

1. The foot 3D scanner detects and measures the foot, and the data obtained is more accurate, and the accuracy can often reach about 0.5mm. Such data can improve the user experience and greatly improve the comfort.
2. The scanning speed of the foot 3D scanner is faster. The traditional measurement method requires step-by-step measurement. When measuring multiple data, it may take more than ten minutes or even half an hour, or more time, while the foot 3D scanner measures the foot information, which generally only takes tens of seconds.
3. The foot 3D scanner can quickly measure more than 20 sets of data in a short time, including the length, width, angle and arch height of the foot. At the same time, it can also generate a 3D model of the foot, allowing users to understand their foot conditions more intuitively. The generated stl data can be directly imported into the insole design software for personalized design and correction design.

The process of making insoles using a foot 3D scanner is as follows:

1. First, measure the entire foot information through a foot scanner. Generally, it only takes a few tens of seconds to complete the test.
2. Import the stl data generated by the device measurement directly into the insole design software, and then carry out personalized design and correction design according to the specific needs of the customer.
3. Import the designed insole personalized data into a 3D printer or engraving machine for insole production.
4. Perform veneer and polishing according to customer needs to make the insole more beautiful. After it is done, the insole is delivered to the customer by express or other means.
