Hooks
 |
With cable-controlled prostheses, a Hook can be used alternatively to the System Hand as a grasping tool. Hooks are especially suited for activities that demand extreme precision for grasping smaller objects such as screws or nails. The Hook is a reliable, robust and resilient tool for manual labor or activities in a difficult environment (e.g. solvents, moisture). |

Hooks are opened via the body harness worn on the upper body. They close
independently by means of spring or elastic components. Hooks are made of
particularly robust materials (e.g. stainless steel). In
addition, they are easy
to clean and have minimal weight (e.g. aluminum alloy). Aside from standard hooks for adults, hooks for children and adolescents as well as working hooks are available. |
