Device Type
There is just a single tab for this section of the FUSION order form.
Select the Order Type; is this a bilateral, left foot only or right foot only order?
The device type determines the style of device you are ordering. These types are listed in detail on the product page of our website or our product catalogue.
There are five categories, standard, dress, sport, moulds and specialised. Each of these categories has a number of products with specific lab descriptions.
NB: when you see an option for direct milled this indicates that the shell is milled directly from white, clear, or black polypropylene or black Delrin (polypropylene & nylon). This creates a unitised extrinsic heel component producing a robust product. (Osirusoft CAD CAM)
All other shells are vacuum formed onto a milled MDF block of the corrected foot position as requested by your prescription. (Sharp Shape & manual manufacturing)
N.B. It’s useful to know and understand that a standard functional device has a heel height of 14mm and normal width shell grind while a standard sport has an 18mm heel cup and sport shell grind.
The deeper the heel cup automatically creates a wider shell. This creates greater interaction between the foot and the orthoses altering the forces at the foot orthosis interface greater than with a standard or dress device. Hence product descriptions are important.
You can indicate the quantity of the order, which by default will be 1.
At this point you could jump to the Order Summary & Submission screen and submit your order and the device will be manufactured to our default spec as per the product page on our website and our catalogue.
