We explore how foaming TPU, belt printers, and clinician-led automation can bring custom foot orthoses in-house, cut costs, and reduce lead times from weeks to hours. Fredrik from CADmed shares what actually works, what doesn’t, and how remote design plus per-pair pricing changes the game.

• why automation increases clinician control rather than removes it
• carving versus printing tradeoffs on speed, finish, and cost
• foaming TPU benefits including smoother surfaces and less waste
• belt printers for continuous TPU production and better surface feel
• FDM advantages over powder bed fusion for insoles
• practical lattices and gradients without overengineering
• decentralizing production to clinics for faster delivery
• remote design, slicing, and printer control with per-pair pricing
• scaling systems for reliability, repeatability, and low friction
