2 Product description

2.1 Design
The product consists of the following components:
2.2 Function
The product is a myoelectrically controlled and multiarticulating hand prosthesis.
The product enables objects to be gripped, pushed, pulled and carried with multiarticulating
functionality. The product is designed to resemble the anatomical structure and weight of a
human hand.
The thumb can be set to two different positions (opposition and lateral), allowing for 14 different
grips (see page 3). Eight grips can be preconfigured using the adjustment software.
A finger chain that protects the drive serves as overload protection for the 4 actively powered fin­
gers. In case of overloading, the corresponding finger cannot be flexed anymore since the con­
nection to the drive was severed. The finger chain can be replaced without disassembling the ter­
minal device (see page 22).
