Digital-ready Workshop: Creating a Digital-ready Workshop through Innovative Use of Cross-Industry Manufacturing Technology
Foot Care & Limb Design Centre
The Foot Care & Limb Design Centre team was recognised for their project “Digital-ready Workshop”, which aims to reduce or eliminate WSH-related injuries through the digital transformation of manufacture processes via adoption and integration of digital solutions used in other industries. These solutions include 3D shape capture, computer-aided design rendering, computer-aided carving and 3D-printing.
Outcomes from the successful creation of a ‘Digital-ready Workshop’ include a significant reduction in WSH-related injuries, improved manpower productivity and faster turnaround time to fabricate customised devices for patients.”
