Product overview

The socket body is modelled from 3D scan data of the residual limb and printed as a single piece in a high-thermal-conductivity polymer composite. A dedicated mounting position holds the semiconductor cooling unit without changing the space needed for standard prosthetic assembly.

The cooling unit monitors temperature with two NTC sensors and supports automatic control plus three manual levels. Power is supplied externally over USB-C at 5 V or 9 V. The manual specifies a peak cooling power of 35 W, operating noise of 24 dB or less and an added weight of 180 g or less.

This is a custom-made rehabilitative device. It is intended for a single individual, must be fitted by a qualified prosthetist, and is not a consumer product. Specification figures follow the main table of the client manual and remain subject to the final datasheet.
