Custom EVA Material for Orthotic Milling — Product Data
Closed-cell EVA milling blocks/sheets engineered for CAD/CAM fabrication of custom orthoses, footbeds, and accommodative inserts. Tunable density and hardness deliver the right mix of cushioning, support, and long-term resilience for retail, hospitality, clinical, and athletic use.
Material: EVA closed-cell foam (latex-free)
Applications: Orthotic milling, footbeds, heel lifts/posts, wedges, accommodative pads
Density: Customizable (typical 0.12–0.28 g/cm³)
Hardness: 25–80° Shore C (soft comfort → firm control)
Thickness: 1–57 mm standard; thicker laminates on request
Formats: Milling blocks / sheets / billets; laminated multi-durometer stacks available
Colors: Any solid color or Pantone-matched; optional color-by-durometer system
Origin: CN
Feature: EVA orthopedic/orthotic sheet for CNC milling
Consistent machining: Fine, closed cell structure mills cleanly with crisp edges and smooth surfaces.
Comfort + control: Wide durometer range supports soft top layers with firm posting/stabilization under rearfoot/forefoot.
Lightweight & resilient: Low compression set and reliable rebound for all-day wear.
Hygienic & water-resistant: Closed cells resist moisture uptake; easy to clean and finish.
Process-ready: Bonds well to common top-covers (mesh, PU, microfiber, cork) and to EVA/rubber posting materials.
Top-cover / accommodative layers: 25–40° Shore C
General orthotic shells / footbeds: 35–55° Shore C
Posting, wedges, motion-control zones: 50–70° Shore C
High-load work/industrial inserts: 60–80° Shore C
Single, dual, or multi-durometer laminates (e.g., soft 30C surface / firm 60C base)
Pre-laminated top-covers (mesh, microfiber, antibacterial fabrics)
Pre-bonded posting sheets (EVA, EVA-rubber, cork/EVA)
Perforated or grooved comfort layers; branding deboss or printed IDs
CNC kit-packing from CAD/DXF with left/right mirrors and part labeling
Tooling: 1- or 2-flute up-cut or straight router bit, Ø 3–6 mm
Spindle speed: 8,000–18,000 rpm (use lower rpm for softer grades)
Feed rate: 1,000–3,000 mm/min (adjust to eliminate melting/fuzz)
Step-over: 40–60% of tool diameter for finishing passes
Pass depth: 3–6 mm (deeper for firmer grades)
Tips: Sharp tools, dust extraction, and light air assist improve edge quality. Avoid prolonged dwell to prevent heat marks.
Surface prep: Light sanding or scuffing; wipe with isopropyl alcohol.
Adhesives: PU/contact cements, reactive hot-melt, heat-activated films, or PSA where specified.
Lamination: Heat and press per cover supplier guidance; avoid scorching.
Edge work: Buff to radius; finish with fine grit for smooth perimeters.
Hardness: ASTM D2240 (Shore C)
Compression set: ISO 815
Abrasion/wear (for exposed bases): ISO 4649 / DIN 53516
Tensile/tear (foam): ASTM D3574 / D624 (as applicable)
Chemicals: RoHS/REACH-friendly formulations available
Store flat, dry, and out of direct UV. Keep in original wrap until use to prevent dust pickup. Clean finished devices with mild soap and water; avoid harsh solvents/bleach.
Lead time: Standard sheets/blocks ship in about 25 days. Allow +1–2 weeks for PSA, heat-lamination, multi-durometer stacks, or kit-cut sets.
Samples: Yes—sample kits cover multiple densities, hardnesses, thicknesses, and laminations.
Soft/firm tuning: Achieved by compounding/expansion; specify target Shore C and density.
Recyclability: EVA can be recycled where facilities exist; in-plant offcuts are recycled.
From CAD: Provide CAD/DXF and layout notes; after minor revisions, sample production can usually begin within two weeks.
