Company Information

Since 1994, mediCAD Hectec GmbH has been working on software solutions for orthopedic surgeons. The goal is 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 for reasons of age, 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.

The subsidiary mediCAD Inc. was launched in 2015. We are proud to present another location in the USA.

mediCAD makes history and now offers a 3-dimensional planning option in addition to the 2D version 5.0. Further highlights such as the automatic segmentation of the 3D object, the visualisation of the 3D implant and the movement simulation simplify the surgical planning.

mediCAD works with 70 distribution partners worldwide. This year we gained 2 major additional partners: Zimmer Biomet and LINK.

The development of new products is progressing:

chatMED – Messenger for medical professionals
Mixed Reality – Hologram in the operating theatre
3D foot – OP planning

A new location was opened in Hamburg.

With the release of the new MDR-certified version 7.0, numerous requests from doctors have been integrated into the software and many more implants have been added to the database
