Our history
Mecuris is a medical technology start-up that was founded in 2016 as a spin-off from the University Hospital Munich (LMU).
The idea behind Mecuris originally arose from two different research projects: Jannis Breuninger researched additively manufactured prostheses and prosthetic feet at the Fraunhofer IPA in Stuttgart. Dr. Simon Weidert, on the other hand, worked on orthoses from the 3D printer at the University of Munich Hospital. The aim of both projects was to individualize and digitize the creation of orthopedic aids - Time-saving, high quality, reimbursable and above all as a real asset to the life of the wearer.

Tailor-made solutions for your customers
Individual orthoses & prostheses - digitally created, 3D printed
Our goal is to offer you the opportunity to create individual orthotics and prostheses online in a cost- and time-saving manner. Integrated into a digital value chain, we are your partner for the future in orthopedic technology. To do this, we translate traditional craftsmanship into digital workflows and patient-specific products that are manufactured using industrial 3D printing: I 'm always up-to-date, always up to date to meet the highest quality and safety standards.
For U.S. clinicians: Earn Continuing Education Units (CEU's) through Mecuris
We offer training programs such as the Mecuris E-Learning as well as certain on-demand webinars, which are accredited by the Amercian Board for Certification (ABC).
Stay up-to-date, there's more to come!
What is a CEU?
A CEU (continuing education unit) is a measurement unit used in the United States in education and training programs. In some professions in the U.S. it is required to earn a certain number of CEUs per five-year continuing education cycle to maintain the license to practice. If you are a Orthotist/Prosthetist, O&P Assistant, O&P Technician or a Pedorthist you can earn some CEU's with our online content. Click here for more infos why you need CEU's and see here our other ABC accredited courses.
ABC accredited webinars:
BASIC WEBINAR
How to Create an AFO Ready for 3D Printing
Video recording | 60 Min.
earn 1.25 CEU's!
Get to know the Mecuris Solution Platform!
In this starter-webinar, you'll learn how to create an orthosis in 3 steps using digital tools fast and easy. Everything from the upload of a scan until the download of a finished .stl-file, that only needs to be send to a manufacturing partner.
You'll learn how to:
> digitally correct the posture of a patient scan
> create a positive model
> define an orthosis design
DEEP DIVE WEBINAR
Using 3D Printing with Polypropylene (PP) to create durable orthotic devices
Video recording | 80 Min.
earn 1.5 CEU's!
Additive manufactured PP in the field of O&P
Using the example of a SMO (Supra-Malleolar Orthosis) you will be able to see the fully digital workflow. Followed by insights from PPprint on how to use PP in a FDM printing process.
This agenda is waiting for you:
> Digital Design Workflow - Let's create a SMO
> Production & 3D Printing of PP
> Showcases & Cost Analysis: How much does a FDM-printed orthosis cost when using PP?
DEEP DIVE WEBINAR
Whole leg orthosis (KAFO)
Video recording | 60 Min.
earn 2 CEU's!
Modeling of a whole leg orthosis
If you have basic CAD experience, learn how to digitally create a positive model for a whole leg orthosis (more complex).
You'll learn how to:
> digitally correct an lower limb user scan
> modify a positive model for complex orthoses
> smooth, mask and offsett the ankle and heel & create a forefoot extension
DEEP DIVE WEBINAR
Spinal Brace
Video recording | 60 Min
earn 1.25 CEU's!
How to create a spinal brace ready for 3D printing
CPO Richard Miltenberger will show you how to create a TLSO (thoracic-lumbo-sacral orthosis) with the Mecuris Solution Platform.
You'll learn how to:
> upload a scan into the Mecuris3D Modeling tool
> modify the positive model of the torso, i.e. reducing certain sections etc.
> create the orthosis by setting i.e. trim lines & perforation holes

DEEP DIVE WEBINAR
Residual Limb Modeling
Video recording | 90 Min.
earn 2 CEU's!
The 3D Tech revolution is here!
In this webinar recording, you will hear the story of Joe Johnson, Clinician & CEO Quorum Prosthetics. Learn more about chasing the perfect socket and Quorum's take on digitalization in O&P.
In addition, our CPO Richard will show you in a 20 minute DeepDive how to use the Mecuris Solution Platform to modify a positive model of a residual limb.
Topics covered are:
> how Joe found his way into digital O&P and why he developed the Quatro Socket
> how to evaluate materials in context of MJF-printing
> how to model a residual limb digitally
ABC accredited E-Learning
Our E-Learning program is accredited by ABC. That means you can earn up to 8 CEU's in total if you choose all modules:
-
Module 1: Scanning = 1.75 CEU's
-
Module 2: Modeling = 2.75 CEU's
-
Module 3: Construction = 1.75 CEU's
-
Module 4: Manufacturing = 1.75 CEU's
Process
Each module contains several lessons including on-demand videos and practical tips. At the end of every module you have to complete a quiz to continue with the next module. In these quizzes you enter your ABC certification number. Once you finished a module successfully we will forward the information to ABC and you will get your CEU's.
