Beijing GlobeGem's Support for Paraplegic Support Program Wins Praise for Commitment to 3D Printing Assistive Device R&D and Application

　In May 2015, the technical support of the marketing department of Beijing Universal Precision Technology Co., Ltd, the controlling subsidiary of SANDY Printing Technology Co., Ltd, was invited to support the paraplegic support project of Guangxi Disabled Persons' Federation in Liuzhou, participating in the whole process of patient screening in the countryside, pre-assessment, RGO production and guidance of rehabilitation training for the patients in the later stage, which was highly evaluated by Liuzhou Municipal Government, and gained the unanimous thanks and praise from the families of the patients.

　　It is reported that fitting 50 poor paraplegic disabled people with braces free of charge and guiding them in rehabilitation training is one of the practical projects for the people of Liuzhou Municipal Government in 2015. In order to ensure quality and efficiency, Wang Xiao, a well-known domestic orthopedist from Beijing Global Jingbo Rehabilitation Auxiliary Technology Co., Ltd. was specially hired to provide technical guidance throughout the whole process.

　　According to the introduction, the paraplegic brace fitting is a highly technical and expensive project, and few families of paraplegic disabled people in China rely on their own financial ability to fit the brace. Benefiting from the Liuzhou Municipal Government's practical project for the people, these poor disabled people who have been fitted with paraplegic braces will be able to take a confident step towards a new life from here.

　　The most important feature of orthotics is customization, and most patients often face the problem of inflexible adjustment of orthopedic means and aids during treatment. Traditional orthotics use plaster molds, and the fitting effect of orthotics is not as good as it should be. Combined with 3D printing technology, the patient's limb is digitally scanned with high precision through a scanner, and then the data is processed according to the characteristics of different patients and specific functional needs, including the design of the orthosis, adjusting and repairing the three-dimensional model, and then an accurate digital three-dimensional model is created for the patient through the proprietary software, and then the orthosis can be made to fit the patient's limb completely.
