Not all foam applications are created equal. Some need complex geometries. Some need fast iteration. Some need repeatable protection. This is where 3D printed foam fits in. Our application-by-application breakdown shows where digital manufacturing delivers the most value. Learn more: https://hubs.la/Q04rjyj10 #FoamPackaging #AdditiveManufacturing #AdvancedManufacturing

3D Scanning Alone Does Not Increase Lab Capacity. A 3D foot scanner, like Mosaic Manufacturing's Stryde Scan, creates a consistent digital starting point for every patient, replacing foam impressions and manual casting with accurate digital geometry. However, digital scans alone do not solve production bottlenecks. Capacity increases when scan data flows through a standardized digital workflow, from design to manufacturing, with fewer manual handoffs and less technician-dependent interpretation. 3D scanning improves data capture, and a connected digital workflow improves throughput.

Companies buy foam to protect products, organize equipment, and improve operational efficiency. The question is: which type of foam does that better? Traditional foam works, but it often comes with material waste, tooling, manual assembly, and design limitations. 3D printed foam offers a different approach: ✔️ Better protection through digitally engineered designs ✔️ Less material waste ✔️ No tooling required ✔️ Faster design changes ✔️ Cleaner, repeatable manufacturing When you're evaluating foam, don't compare materials. Compare outcomes. #AdvancedManufacturing #3DPrinting #ProtectivePackaging #FoamManufacturing #ManufacturingInnovation

How Do Digital Orthotics Improve Clinical Repeatability? Repeatability is one of the biggest challenges in orthotics manufacturing. When production depends heavily on manual interpretation, outcomes can vary from one technician to the next. Digital workflows change that. By standardizing the process from scan to production, labs can preserve prescription intent and deliver more consistent devices, regardless of who is manufacturing them. That's the real value of digital orthotics. Read more about 3D scanning for foot orthotics here: https://hubs.la/Q04q5rxz0 #Orthotics #DigitalHealth #Manufacturing #Automation

Choosing the right foam for an industrial application is more complicated than it looks. The wrong material choice can lead to: • Higher production costs • Limited design flexibility • Excess labour and manual processing • Challenges scaling custom solutions From protective packaging and case inserts to dunnage and workholding, the best foam solution depends on more than just material properties. It requires understanding the application, production process, and long-term manufacturing needs. We created a practical guide to help industrial teams evaluate foam options and make better decisions.

For more than 45 years, we have engineered foam solutions for applications where performance is non-negotiable. That experience makes the industry's friction points hard to ignore, heavy tooling investment, fixed design constraints, and lead times that slow product development before it starts. We have been working to change that. KristoFOAM Industries Inc. is collaborating with Mosaic Manufacturing to replace tooling-dependent workflows with digital manufacturing processes that enable variable-density structures, complex geometries, and faster design iteration without the upfront cost of conventional tooling. "Without innovation, there is only stagnation. Partnering with Mosaic is another example of how innovation is expanding kristoFOAM's value proposition and our relentless desire to meet and exceed customer expectations." - Mike Dalakis, VP of Operations, kristoFOAM Read more: https://lnkd.in/gwHP4Wx7

Patient anatomy shouldn't start as foam and plaster. It should start as data. What happens when orthotics go from physical objects and start being captured as digital data? Traditional workflow still relies on physical capture: ➡️ Foam box impressions or plaster casts ➡️ Manual handling and modification ➡️ Physical storage and shipping ➡️ Rebuilding or recapturing when changes are needed The challenge is not just speed; it is consistency. Stryde Scan changes the starting point. Instead of capturing a physical form, you capture anatomy digitally at the point of care. ✅ Capture patient anatomy digitally in clinic ✅ Preserve geometry accurately from the start ✅ Eliminate physical shipping and storage ✅ Move directly into production workflows ✅ Create a permanent digital patient record Once the data is digital, the workflow becomes fundamentally different. Adjustments do not require restarting the process; replacements can be generated from stored files, and production can happen wherever it is needed. The result: More accurate geometry. Faster workflows. Better repeatability. Improved economics. #Orthotics #DigitalManufacturing #AdditiveManufacturing #3DPrinting #MassCustomization #MedicalDevices #HealthcareInnovation #Podiatry #OrthoticDesign #Pedorthics #DigitalHealth

We’re excited to announce a new collaboration between Mosaic Manufacturing and KristoFOAM Industries Inc. focused on advancing automated 3D printed foam production. Foam is essential across automotive, medical, packaging, and industrial applications, but many manufacturing methods still rely on tooling-heavy processes that limit speed and flexibility. This partnership combines kristoFOAM’s 40+ years of foam manufacturing expertise with Mosaic Manufacturing’s automated additive platform to explore a more digital approach to foam production. Together, we are working to enable faster iteration, reduced lead times, and greater design freedom through technologies like variable-density structures and complex geometries. As demand grows for more customized and efficient production, this collaboration helps lay the foundation for the next generation of foam manufacturing.

Orthotic materials should do more than print well. Their performance needs to meet the right clinical objectives while also accounting for economic realities. That's why Mosaic Manufacturing developed our own proprietary materials built for the unique requirements of custom orthotics: Stryde Aero → Advanced EVA-style cushioning engineered for patient-specific comfort, durability, and clean production workflows. Stryde Form → Rigid and durable mechanical properties with some flex that moves with the patient. Stryde Align → Our most rigid material that helps maintain biomechanical alignment over long wear cycles with consistent stiffness and structural performance across every build. Always custom. Always click-to-3D print. Always configured to the needs of orthotics labs. #Orthotics #3DPrinting #AdditiveManufacturing #DigitalManufacturing #MedTech
