Full Case Details

This professional orthopedic insole model incorporates an anatomically integrated heel lift system designed for advanced podiatric and biomechanical applications. The elevated heel structure assists in managing structural or functional leg length discrepancies (LLD) while improving sagittal plane balance during walking and standing.

The orthotic geometry is engineered to reduce mechanical stress on the Achilles tendon and plantar fascia by optimizing heel elevation and rearfoot positioning. A contoured heel cup and supportive arch foundation help stabilize the calcaneus and minimize heel slippage inside footwear despite the raised platform.

The model is developed in Rhino 3D using production-ready watertight geometry compatible with modern podiatry CAD/CAM workflows, CNC machining, and 3D printing systems. The design can be further customized based on clinical prescriptions, patient biomechanics, or manufacturing requirements.
