Improved Technology and Fresh Design

Function and benefits
Both knee joints are equipped with an innovative, load-dependant brake mechanism. The brake mechanism engages when the heel is loaded. It stabilizes the prosthesis and achieves a high degree of security during the entire stance phase. The braking mechanism releases automatically when the forefoot is loaded, and the swing phase can be initiated easily and harmoniously. Unphysiological movements, such as hip hike are minimized with this system and this helps to create a more secure, harmonious gait.

* The Otto Bock MOBIS* mobility system is NOT intended to be used in the U.S.A. as a guide to obtaining reimbursement for prosthetic components.

**Knee height = center of rotation to upper edge of pyramid/connection point.

The effect of the integrated extension assist can be regulated very easily by adjusting the tension of the spring . The setting can be engaged individually in five settings and increases or decreases the intensity of the extension assist.

The pneumatic swing phase control allows a significantly smoother gait for the user. The flexion and extension damping is individually and continuously adjustable to match individual requirements. In particular, users with Mobility Grades 2 and 3* will appreciate the smooth and energy-efficient functionality of the progressive pneumatic swing phase control.
