The Company is an approved contractor to the NHS Hospitals & Trusts and is registered to CE Mark - all custom made and class 1 devices. Relief Orthotics is a ISO 9001/2000 registered company.

Our mission is to continue the development and production of high quality products with the aim to provide complete customer satisfaction.

The RoSkan system comprises of a handheld laser scanner, orthotic/prosthetic rectification software and a milling machine. The ROSkan system is a replacement system for the traditional casting method for obtaining a mould for producing an orthotic device. Since there is no physical contact during the scanning process, this eliminates any distress or discomfort for the patient.

The scans can then be rectified in the rectification software giving the user maximum control over the rectifications. The rectification software has a simple work stream which allows the user to quickly and easily make any rectifications which dramatically cuts down the time it takes to get the models into production.
