Description

The University of Salford are currently looking to purchase a 3D printer to produce custom made insoles for specific service user requirements. We are looking for a device which can offer at least 10 different densities within the printed layers to offload pressure areas on the foot. Insoles need to be produced with minimum modification following printing ready for usto use. 3D printing capability with a minimum printing height of 5 millimetres and a maximum height of 5 centimetres. Capable of producing 230 pairs per month with minimum waste (we are not looking for a carving solution). The software needs to be specific to the industry offering all the adaptations required - metatarsal bars, sinks, valgus arch profiles at different heights, heel dish, skives etc. For educational purposes the successful provider needs to provide software and hardware support for future use of a minimum of 10 years.
