Works seamlessly with all major scanning technologies and manufacturing equipment, creating a complete end-to-end digital workflow.
Available in 12 languages with region-specific measurement systems, making it the perfect solution for international practices and clinics.
OrthoCAD provides a complete CAD software for orthotic design solution with an intuitive workflow that takes you from scan to finished product.
Import 3D foot scans from any compatible scanning device with automatic alignment and orientation.
Create custom orthotic designs using parametric tools with precise control over arch height, posting, and additions.
Fine-tune your design with condition-specific templates and patient-specific adjustments for perfect results.
Export optimized files for 3D printing or CNC orthotic milling with a single click for immediate production.
OrthoCAD software provides a seamless digital pathway from initial patient assessment to the final orthotic product with advanced tools at every step:
Import scans from any 3D scanner with automatic orientation and classification. OrthoCAD supports all major file formats including STL, OBJ, and proprietary scanner files. The software includes tools for scan cleanup, smoothing, and error correction to ensure a perfect foundation for your design.
Create precise orthotic designs using our intuitive parametric modeling tools. Adjust arch height, medial/lateral flanges, heel cups, and posting angles with real-time visual feedback. The system includes biomechanically validated templates for common foot conditions including pes cavus, pes planus, metatarsalgia, and plantar fasciitis.
Fine-tune designs with our advanced surface manipulation tools. Create targeted pressure relief zones, add metatarsal domes, adjust first ray cutouts, and define variable flexibility regions. OrthoCAD's unique multi-density modeling system allows you to create structures with varying material properties for optimal patient comfort and support.
Prepare designs for production with optimized export tools. Generate toolpaths for CNC orthotic milling or create sliced files for 3D printed orthotics. The software includes material-specific settings to ensure perfect results whether you're using EVA foam, polypropylene, or advanced TPU materials.
OrthoCAD offers unmatched precision, efficiency, and versatility for orthopedic professionals worldwide.
OrthoCAD is designed to run on a wide range of hardware configurations to meet your practice needs.

Common questions about CAD software for orthotic design
OrthoCAD is specifically designed for orthotic design with purpose-built tools for foot biomechanics. Unlike general CAD programs, OrthoCAD includes specialized features like arch height modification, medial/lateral posting controls, metatarsal dome placement, and heel cup depth adjustments. It also integrates directly with 3D scanners and orthotic manufacturing systems, creating a seamless end-to-end digital workflow.
OrthoCAD is designed with practitioners in mind, not engineers, making it exceptionally user-friendly. Most clinicians become proficient after just 4-8 hours of training. The intuitive interface uses familiar podiatric and orthotic terminology, and includes guided workflows for common prescriptions. Our comprehensive training program includes video tutorials, hands-on sessions, and ongoing support to ensure you're successful.
Yes, OrthoCAD seamlessly integrates with both CNC milling systems and 3D printers for orthotic fabrication. The software includes specialized export features that optimize designs for either manufacturing method, applying the appropriate offsets, support structures, and tool paths. This versatility allows practices to use their preferred production method or even combine both technologies for different patient needs.
