It took Yann Paitel, founder of OSIC Carbone (Orthopedic Solutions, Innovative Concept) eight years to master a range of technologies and develop proprietary methodologies that allow the subsidiary of Orthopédie Bontoux to deliver customized foam orthoses to medical providers in just 12 hours. Now, he is promising to deliver these same capabilities to medical service providers and medical products manufacturers internationally in 10 weeks.
Founded in 2008 to explore new digital and robotics technologies that could be employed to reduce lead times and manufacturing costs, the parent company has produced orthotics using labor intensive, time consuming conventional carbon fiber composite manufacturing techniques.
