A new model for M4D Scan
Specially developed for orthopaedics by Creaform, M4D scan brings together all the characteristics required to use CAD/CAM on a daily basis
Since the beginning of April, Rodin4D offers a new version of M4D Scan, the latest model in our range of 3D scanners dedicated to orthopaedics.
This new model, faster, lighter and more portable than its predecessor, comes with new technology and is fully integrated into Rodin4D.
With M4D Scan, a patient can be digitised in less than 30 seconds, and with automatic post-processing, the scanned form can be imported into Rodin4D in just one minute.
This makes it the fastest 3D scanner used in orthopaedics.
M4D Scan can be used to produce a large number of devices: custom-made shoes, orthosis, minerva braces, tibial and femoral prosthesis, upper and lower limbs, seats, helmets for adults and children.

SOSORT Meeting at Chicago
Rodin4D will be in Chicago from 8 to 11 May 2013 for the meeting organised by SOSORT (International Society on Scoliosis Orthopaedic Rehabilitation and Treatment).
This international event aims to improve the management of scoliosis (including prevention, early detection; medical treatment and patient education) and other spinal deformities. It also aims to encourage team work between scientists, healthcare professionals, the patients and their families.
Our team will have its own stand at the meeting to welcome participants. We will present our new 3D scanner, M4D Scan, as well as our brace simulator.
A new recruit joins the team
Having worked with Lagarrigue Aquitaine for 14 years, the company where Rodin4D began, her integration in the team could not have been more natural.
Isabelle is now in charge of product import / export, to facilitate exchanges between Rodin4D and its customers.
A warm welcome to Isabelle!
Neoprot, a customer satisfied with the Rodin4D system
Created in 1996, Neoprot is an orthopaedic company located in Slovakia. With more than 60 ortho-prosthesists based in 10 agencies, the company decided to move to CAD/CAM and have chosen the Rodin4D system.
Robert Wagner, Chief Executive Officer of Neoprot, shared his impressions:
“In my opinion, the Rodin4D rectification software is very user-friendly for ortho-prosthesists. As for digitisation, it is fast and easy, and the digitised model can be directly downloaded into the rectification software. So, there are many advantages with this system.”
Tip of the month
How to copy and move an anatomical area
The principle behind this tip is simple:
- Copy the current form to insert.
- Move the insert to position the anatomical area at the desired location.
- Merge the anatomical area using the merge tool.
- Smooth using the “standard tools”.
