Work made with Satres machines

These are not product shots. They are real devices, made in a lab that works with our machines every day — and photographed by the technician who made them.

Ortopedia Primo Cecilia

Rome, Italy

The workshop runs an Ortho EVO. The pieces below were made and published by Fabrizio Martinoli, who looks after the lab’s digital side.

Thirteen milled polyurethane body-jacket positives stacked in the workshop, each with its own job sheet

An ordinary day

Thirteen milled body-jacket positives lined up waiting for thermoforming, each with its job sheet attached. Fabrizio posted it with three words: Ci sono giornate intense — some days are intense.

Prosthesis for a Lisfranc amputation: blue carbon laminated socket with forefoot filler, made by Ortopedia Primo Cecilia

Prosthesis for a Lisfranc amputation

A Lisfranc amputation leaves a partial forefoot: the socket has to be built on the residual shape and the missing volume rebuilt, without creating incorrect load points.

The machine at work

Dry milling of two insole positives, filmed in the workshop mid-cycle. This is the step that decides the accuracy of everything that follows.

Ankle-foot orthosis with Neuro Swing joint and laminated shell, made by Ortopedia Primo Cecilia

Ankle-foot orthosis with Neuro Swing joint

An ankle-foot orthosis with a dynamic joint: the laminated part has to be built on the patient’s model before the mechanics go on, so the joint axis falls where it should.
