Kinnex 2.0: The Next Generation of Microprocessor Ankle/Foot

Steeper are pleased to introduce the Kinnex 2.0 by Freedom Innovations to our extensive lower limb prosthetics portfolio! Combining the popular features of the first generation, the Kinnex 2.0 has been optimised with new features and performance capabilities to offer the user intuitive movement and real-time response. This ankle/foot microprocessor system utilises sensor-controlled ankle movement to process data at a rate of 200 times per second, and Rapid Response™ valve technology responding at a rate of 5 milliseconds.

The Kinnex 2.0 is suitable for low to moderate ambulators (K3) who desire superior ground compliance in their everyday activities, and an ankle that independently adjusts according to their speed and terrain. Improved hydraulic design, water ingress certified and app customisation, work together to provide the optimal prosthesis for those seeking a microprocessor prosthesis that adjusts to their everyday life.

App Customisation
The GaitLab clinician app and Kinnex 2.0 patient app, enable a streamlined setup, monitoring of performance, and customisation of the device to suit user’s preferences.

Alignment Setup Feature
Using the GaitLab app, you can lock the ankle in a neutral 90° position with 10mm heel height during setup for alignment and performing sensor calibration.

IP67 Rated
The Kinnex 2.0 is water ingress certified, enabling the device to be submerged for up to 30 minutes in 1m of fresh water.

Improved Hydraulic System
Improved seal technology and robust cylinder design increases the durability of the prostheses, whilst a new hydraulic oil reservoir increases and optimises oil capacity and longevity.

Low Battery Alerts
The user will be notified when the prostheses is running low on battery via the app, and also via a low-profile light on the button panel along with a soft vibration.

Change Footwear with Ease
The manual lock can be easily engaged/disengaged using either the app or by double-pressing the Change Footwear button on the front panel, and with up to 2” of heel height adjustment users can program in up to 100 types of shoes.

Optimised for the Everyday
The split heel and keel design increases ground compliance to provide optimal stability for the user, and full length sole plate provides seamless stance phase during rollover.
