What is AspiraMolde??

So I realized that it might be unclear what AspiraMolde is trying to accomplish.   AspiraMolde is a step in creating the socket which the prosthetic device will be connected to.  The socket is made from melting the plastic around a positive mold of the amputated leg, the stump.  A positive mold is made from the negative mold.  The AspiraMolde is a device that makes the negative mold using vacuum casting.
