History & goals
The pedcad solution - top-quality insole production
Managing Director Dietmar Walter has been a certified master orthopaedic shoemaker since 1982 and a state-certified podiatrist since 2005. He is, therefore, well acquainted with the daily demands of this craft.
As early as the beginning of the 1990s, Dietmar Walter realised that neither the conventional production of insoles using a blueprint nor the production of a positive using a plaster cast would, in the future, be cost-effective. However, it is precisely this cost-effectiveness that is crucial for a business to be able to maintain its place and compete in a globalised economy.
Because of these considerations, and with the requirement to use the latest technology, the idea for digital insole production arose.
pedcad is a pioneer, now one of the leading providers in the field of digital insole production, and is there to assist you with your digitalisation. You can decide for yourself how much support you would like us to provide. We offer you four ⇢ business models for this; in each case the insoles are always delivered to you, as the retailer.
No matter what form of collaboration you ultimately choose we will supply you with high-quality, tested and certified insole materials, custom designed and milled insoles, reliable 3D printers, milling machines and much more related to digital insole production.
All our products are the result of knowledge gained from more than 30 years of digital insole production. As a partner, you can draw on this knowledge and our extensive experience, allowing you to design your future-proof insole production.
