Advantages of 3D Flatfoot Scanners
As a core flatfoot measurement tool, 3D plantar scanners offer significant technical advantages in the following areas:
Millimeter-level high-precision measurement: Using laser or optical scanning technology, we achieve submillimeter accuracy (e.g., ±0.5mm), far exceeding the subjective error of traditional footprint-based methods and ensuring the reliability of diagnostic data.
Non-contact scanning: No physical contact is required, preventing foot forces from interfering with measurement results, ensuring data authenticity and objectivity.
Real-time 3D model generation: After scanning, a visual 3D model of arch height and plantar contact area is instantly generated, intuitively demonstrating foot structural abnormalities and facilitating doctor-patient communication and treatment decision-making.
Fast operation process: The scanning process takes only seconds (e.g., 3-10 seconds) and supports batch processing (up to 300 screenings per day), significantly improving diagnostic efficiency for medical institutions.
Eliminating subjective error: Through digital technology, unified data standards reduce reliance on physician experience and provide repeatable, objective assessments suitable for dynamic monitoring and treatment tracking.
Personalized Orthotic Support: Measurement data can be directly exported for customized insoles and orthotic solutions (e.g., STL files support 3D printing), enabling precise intervention and optimized results.
Long-term Data Management and Application: Supports foot data storage and review and comparison, facilitating tracking of children’s arch development and evaluating treatment outcomes in adults. This technology is widely used in medical rehabilitation, sports medicine, and custom footwear.
