Research and Development

 

Ireland

Trulife has expertise in silicone gels and rubbers, hydro gels, foams, elastomers, coated fabrics and films. Rapid prototyping techniques, in-house modelmaking and mould design enable upscaling to production at minimum cost and short lead-times. With skills in SolidWorks, engineering and industrial design, we can move from concept to design and rapid prototype through to product testing and successful product launch in a timely and controlled manner. Additive Manufacturing technology has greatly enhanced our abilities. Our Stereo Lithography Capacity (SLA) allows us to make 3 dimensional solid objects from a digital file. This enhances our product development timelines, effectiveness and quality.

Radiant Impressions

Radiant Impressions is a custom breast prosthesis that simulates breast tissue and provides symmetry to the body and the bra fit. It is made of 100% pure silicone and is hand painted to match skin tones. Scanning technology is used to capture a precise and rapid 3D scan of the breast surgery site. The moulds are created with additive manufacturing technology.

UK

Trulife manufactures orthotic devices and walking aids in our modern fabrication unit in Sheffield. Skilled technicians manufacture a range of products from aluminium through to modern carbon fibre and glass composite materials. We are continually seeking ways to improve our products and processes.

Canada

Trulife utilises state-of-the art knitting equipment and an advanced system of computerised Gerber cutting to manufacture prosthetic interfaces, complex bras and orthopaedic soft goods. We continually seek innovative materials to develop new products, enhance the product quality and improve user experience.

United States

Trulife applies CNC computer controlled and water jet technology on a variety of materials including steel, titanium, aluminium, plastic, carbon fibre, foam, rubber and urethanes. Our composites are processed in a computer-controlled autoclave to give consistent quality of lamination, high strength and low product weight.

We have a specialised test laboratory where we validate the designs of our prosthetic feet and components to the industry standards ISO 22675 and ISO 10328 to ensure functionality and safety.
