Said colleague wouldn&#8217;t be in town for long, so the job was done in a rush. The SnugFit 3D scanning app, orthotic design software caleld Spentys and Formlabs SLA and SLS printers all played a crucial role.<\/p>\n<p id=\"a83274_1255\" data-ic-marker=\"9087df_1170\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1756794_81_138582_5ggoZQOOX.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"def78b_1052\" data-ic-marker=\"7806c_435\">While we generally seek out printed case studies, this one was presented on video only, and is roughly two minutes long:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"3c38a2_2472\" data-ic-marker=\"fa3313_1374\">Nice work!
