Great video guys. I have been an Orthotic Technician for 20 years now and this is the first time I have seen how someone else or another company manufacturers the stuff I make. Makes me feel part of a bigger group rather than just the small company I work for.
This might be a dumb question, but why did you choose to put the pads in the malleoli pads at the end and not before the draping when you could have skived and put the pads underneath the nylon stockinette (baby powder could then be used as a separator during the vacuuming)?
Hello, Thank you for demonstrating!! I live in Washington DC and I have a brother who live in Ethiopia( Africa).He had a car accident and he didn't walk for the last 12 years and I am trying to buy for him KAFO with out prescription but I couldn't find where and how I buy it. can you please please please help me? Thanks in advance!
We modify enough room into the model to accommodate adding pads near the end of the process. The pads that we use are very soft and low durometer, the hot plastic under vacuum would permanently compress this type of padding too much to still be effective.
Buenos días cual es la medida exacta donde deben ir los maniquíes de la articulación para AFO teniendo encuentra que un maléolo es mas alto que el interno?
This is so incredible I’ve been suffering for over 1 1/2 years with a collapsed right ankle. Please help me. I’ve lost two jobs and my quality of life is so depleted. I have to able to wear a regular or near regular shoe or work boot
Erin Tatum A full footplate adds no benefit, it just makes the shoe tighter. There is no added rigidity with a polypro footplate that is flat. Short answer, easier to fit in the shoe.
Dean Hansen Perhaps in some designs, but it hasn't been an issue. We use full length padded footplates, something no one else that I know of does. It works very well for us.
Two people to do transfer paper. !!!!!!!!! Unheard of .hi I make orthopedic stuff not going to say as I'm a supervisor..man that would be great. I have to use cardboard rolls silacon wrap it tight and apply it with one hand and pull out the wrinkles with the other on poly pro . I also have to do p zot by myself you need a new employee??? jk good work Bud

Nice work man
Fantastic video too, you guys are serious craftsmen!
At 7:17 which hand machine is that you are using to cut AFO ???
It's zonolite, aka vermiculite. It makes the models easier to rectify, plaster build-ups stick better. It helps and it's cheap.

at 7:38 I am looking at some sweet buffing machines. Do you think I can use a 1/2 hp motor to serve my needs?
My router is 1/2 hp and works well.
Thank you!
I hope I am not bothering you but would this work instead of buying a router? www.arbemachine.com/View/Two-Speed-Polishing-Motor
and I was going to attach this to it www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002IXQ4W/ref=s9_acsd_hps_bw_c_x_1_w
Can you do a video of making a hinged afo
At 6.42 which cutter is that?
its called a 5 in 1 leather cutter I believe. Or at least that will get you closer in the right direction!
we work the exact same way with the exact same tools here in montreal, canada. Great work guys ! your anvil is nicer tho ;-) lol
At 7:17 which hand machine is used to cut AFO plastic?
Is this AFO rigid design?
The material we add to plaster is zonolite, sometimes called vermiculite
You are so awesome!

Any orthotist can make this. I am retired
@ thank you
Why did you choose to use a shorter footplate, rather than a full foot that other ground reaction designs use?
Erin Tatum A full footplate adds no benefit, it just makes the shoe tighter. There is no added rigidity with a polypro footplate that is flat. Short answer, easier to fit in the shoe.
Advanced Orthopedic Designs Thank you for the fast reply
The Thing That You add With The Plaster That Make His Colour Grey n It's Just A Dye ????
Bowl leg ?
If I had no insurance, how much would these be? I've been through so many braces that just aren't good.
We will at some point. Just subscribe to our channel to stay up to date with our releases.
A full footplate will keep the orthosis from cutting into the sulcus of the foot and aid in toe pick up.
Dean Hansen Perhaps in some designs, but it hasn't been an issue. We use full length padded footplates, something no one else that I know of does. It works very well for us.
Does anyone know the tool he is using at 7:20?
It is a Landis 5 in 1 trimmer. Kevin
Thank you so much!
That is an incredible tool btw!
It is a Landis 5 in 1 trimmer, most commonly used in shoe repair.

hi sir
iam from India
sir i want to do training orthotics and prosthetics
please help me sir
What is the vermiculite for?
It makes the plaster less dense so it's lighter to work with.
can u plz explain the trimline being made
Proximally the trimline extends to the tibial tubercle. Medially and laterally they extend beyond the apices of the maleoli.
Advanced Orthopedic Designs thanks
Is there no sound with this video?
I guess not. My techs made the video.

Advanced Orthopedic Designs Aaaaaaa
What is the function of zonolite?
+saiful syazwan mohf fadzil Zololite is a light weight filler. It makes the plaster more absorbant and I think it makes plaster buildups stick better.
Thank you for the fast reply. great information
More videos, please!
