Company Information

Since 1994, mediCAD Hectec GmbH has been working on software solutions for orthopedic surgeons. Our goal is and was to enable efficient and safe planning of joint operations in all aspects, digitally – in clinics as well as in practices.

In 1999, mediCAD Hectec GmbH was the first company in the world to provide a software program that enables the complete preoperative planning of a joint replacement to be professionally created in a digital environment with just a few inputs/clicks.

After the company founders, the Hechenbichler family, had to retire, the current managing director Jörn Seel took over the company.

He optimised the software development and the sales concept and led the company into a successful future.
