“The Demo Center was created in the Delcam Windsor office because of the expertise that Delcam can offer with the experienced and senior Application Engineers here,” said Mark Cadogan VP Sales North America. “Having a demo center here will not only benefit customers and prospects in the healthcare markets but also other areas of manufacturing by showing how technology and Delcam solutions can be applied.” As the market increases so will the number of support staff possibly creating more Demo Centers across North American in offices in Salt Lake City, Pasadena, Toronto, and Fort Washington, PA.

Commenting on the Orthotic Business, Maida Koller VP Orthotic Business Development said, “Delcam is very committed to the orthotics market and is continuously looking for ways to improve the overall process of developing custom foot insoles. By having a “pseudo” lab, we can allow our prospects who are currently making orthotics by hand see how using the latest technology can make the process faster and more accurate. It also allows us to better support our customers because we can quickly reproduce problems they are having and find solutions quicker.”

Delcam was, of course, already active in many areas of the healthcare business for years with PowerSHAPE (for design and reverse engineering) and PowerMILL, PartMaker and FeatureCAM (for machining) from the production of prostheses, through to the manufacture of surgical instruments and even different types of medical packaging.

For specific medical industries such as orthotics however, Delcam felt it was necessary to combine the software knowledge and expertise into a format that is intuitive, flexible and familiar. For more on Delcam’s CADCAM suite for Custom Orthotic Insoles go to www.orthotics-cadcam.com
