Mosaic’s Array offers unique automated capabilities that have unlocked a vast range of applications for on demand digital manufacturing across multiple industries. Custom medical orthotics, one of Mosaic’s newest verticals, presents a perfect use case for additive manufacturing due to the high volume, custom nature of each pair.

While utilizing 3D printing for the production of custom orthotics is not a novel concept, historically, the practice has been infeasible due to high up front equipment costs and high labor requirements for post processing. Array presents a solution to these issues, allowing labs to manufacture orthotics efficiently, locally, and cost-effectively, while requiring limited operator oversight.
Working with medical practitioners and central fabricators in the foot orthotic space, Mosaic has validated a streamlined end-to-end workflow to unlock efficient orthotic production. Mosaic is partnering with orthotics design software companies to streamline the processing of prescriptions and patient scan data, to offer a smooth proven workflow to customers.
The first in a series of collaborations, Mosaic is thrilled to announce our partnership with Taika3D, a pioneering leader in orthotic design technology. This partnership optimizes Taika3D's design automation software for Mosaic's flagship product, Array.
