2019-07-01

To celebrate the 98th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, the Seventh Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University in Shenzhen carried out a large-scale free clinic.

On this very day, many experts and city volunteers from various departments participated to receive residents. The doctors listened to everyone’s health status and patiently explained the results of their examination, physical condition, rational use of medicine, etc., reminding everyone to go to the hospital for medical treatment in time, and publicize knowledge about common diseases and daily health care.

On this free clinic, eSUN is invited to assist the rehabilitation medicine department of the Seventh Hospital to provide free foot health consultation and examination.

 

At the scene, led by Professor Huang Dongfeng, the hospital conducted free medical treatment and health education for nearly 100 patients. eSUN team brings 'iSUN3D customized 3D Printing insole system to provide foot scanning for Professor Huang Dongfeng and Director Xu Wei to conduct further assessment and diagnosis.

 

Throughout the whole process, it was found that many people easily overlook common diseases such as flat feet, internal and external valgus, and cartilage damage. The rehabilitation medicine department advocates that everyone must be treated in time to avoid serious damage on foot health.

 

During the whole process, eSUN team uses the “iSUN3D FLX printer”for foot scanning. After 3.9 seconds, the foot model data has been obtained to determine whether the patient had foot disease.

 

Then, according to the doctor's final diagnosis, a pair of insoles are 3D Printed to completely suit the user's foot type, thereby fixing and maintaining foot health. It’s a completely new experience that “iSUN3D customized 3D Printing insole system”is bringing to rehabilitation medicine with the convenience of 3D printing technology.

 Through the free clinic, eSUN tries to create a healthy life and enhance the attention to foot health. Mr. Lin Feng, the general manager of iSUN3D, the subsidiary of eSUN, shared at the hospital.

"As a well-known global brand of 3D printing materials, eSUN is always thinking about the application of 3D printing technology and problems in life that 3D printing technology can fix. After a global visit, our CEO Dr. Yihu Yang learned from the rehabilitation customers that many people have foot problems, so he decided to develop customized insoles with FDM 3D printing technology to give everyone a pair of insoles that fit.

It's known that many people have foot pain and wrong walking posture. After the analysis and research, eSUN found out that personalized insoles can be realized with FDM technology, so the team develops "iSUN3D customized 3D Printing insole system", from material development (bio-based TPU), to equipment improvement (reduce printing time from hours to less an hour), and to the introduction of scanning design, all to fully realize the simplification and civilianization of customized insoles (simple printing, lowest cost) with 3D printing technology, to make sure that customized insoles is available to everyone!”

Undoubtedly, the future medical science will move forward with the combination of medicine and engineering technology. Especially in the manufacture of rehabilitation equipment, the development of engineering technology can greatly help to upgrade medical equipment.. eSUN‘iSUN3D customized 3D Printing insole system”is bound to help the foot rehabilitation medical care to be healthier and faster!

 

At the end of the clinic, everyone was very emotional. The Seventh Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University provides a professional and reliable clinic for every patient, hoping to help everyone for a healthy life. As a well-known brand of global 3D printing materials, eSUN is happy to be responsible for the society and combine scientific and technological innovation with the development of rehabilitation medical care, to improve life quality for everyone, with healthier foot, and to integrate 3D printing technology to everyone’s life!
