BLACKFIN SPINNER FEATURES

 ADJUSTABLE SOCKET TECHNOLOGY 

Adjustable socket technology that allows users to dynamically tune the fit their own prosthetic socket while improving skeletal stability,  performance and comfort.

ADJUSTABLE  SOCKET

Mechanical drive unit translates the socket  wall to adjust for volume changes through out the day.

SKELETAL STABILITY

Control socket forces by expanding the skeletal modifications already built into the socket.

VOLUME MANAGEMENT

Accommodate volume fluctuations to optimze prosthetic fit.

MAXIMUM COMFORT

We start by putting you in control of your socket fit.

CROSS PLANE TECH

When retracted there is no force on the residual limb.  Expand the socket wall to increase the load on the limb.

SUSPENSION MECHANISM

The SPINNER system doubles a unique suspension system to mitigate pistoning & movement in the socket.

NO CABLES OR LOOSE PANELS

No strings attached.  The direct drive and panel system are contained within the socket.

DIRECT DRIVE  ADVANTAGE

Serious mechanical advantage to control your limb in the socket.  

WATER, DUST & LIFE PROOF

Don't let the elements hold you back.

LIGHTWEIGHT

There is no need to laminated the socket twice to incorporate the SPINNER system.  This results in a lighter weight socket.

SILENT

The SPINNER does not make any noise. Making adjustments in discrete settings easy.

EASY INSTALL

The SPINNER system can be installed into a socket during the fabrication process in a matter of minutes.

A NEW WAY OF LOOKING AT ADJUSTABLE SOCKETS

Unlike traditional adjustable sockets, The SPINNER System uses a mechanical drive unit to transalte the socket wall.

Users can determine the exact amount of translation to optimize socket fit and suspension.

Why Have an ADJUSTABLE SOCKET

When a prosthetic socket is made the socket is designed around the shape of the limb at the time of casting.  The SPINNER adjustable socket helps users adjust the socket to accomodate for volume loss and gain trough out the day.

The BLACKFIN SPINNER adjustable socket uses a mechanical dive unit to provide the user the ability to make precise socket adjustments to maintain an exact socket fit.
