Navigating Innovation: Chris Handford on the Evolution of Vorum’s prosthetic and orthotic Digital Workflow

The Prosthetics and Orthotics Podcast is a deep dive into what 3D printing and Additive Manufacturing mean for the Prosthetics and Orthotics Industry. Brent Wright and Joris Peels are the Co-Hosts of The Prosthetics and Orthotics podcast and are both passionate about 3D printing and Additive Manufacturing. Last week Chris Handford, Chief Product Officer in Vorum, joined Brent and Joris to discuss Vorum’s evolution regarding our prosthetic and orthotics digital workflow.

“Get ready to embark on an audio journey that promises to leave you informed and inspired about one of the names that has been around digital workflow since nearly the beginning. We’re joined by Chris Handford, Chief Product Officer at Vorum, who shares his fascinating transition from the telecommunications industry to the front lines of O&P innovation, giving us a personal glimpse into the power of technology to revolutionize patient care.

As temperatures drop and the holiday season approaches, we unwrap the narrative of Vorum’s impressive 30-year history, detailing how they’ve navigated the fluid medical tech landscape. We’ll tackle the tangible benefits of dedicated CAD/CAM solutions, the reasons carving still dominates  in our field, and the must-know factors for clinics considering in-house manufacturing versus collaboration with central fabricators. This episode isn’t just about the cold hard facts—it’s a testament to the warmth and dedication found within the O&P community.

Finally, we take you through the ins and outs of the Luma 3D scanner,  which is a tool that is redefining how we capture the human form for custom devices. We’ll explore the cost-effective strategies for integrating digital tools into your practice, even for the smallest clinics aiming to punch above their weight. And for those new to the digital dance, we stress the importance of education in making the transition as smooth as the glide of a well-fitted prosthesis or orthosis. So, whether you’re prepping for a feast of knowledge or just curious about the future of O&P, this episode serves up a hearty helping of insight.” – The Prosthetics and Orthotics podcast (https://tpopodcast.com/episodes/navigating-innovation-chris-handford-on-the-evolution-of-prosthetic-and-orthotic-digital-workflow)
