PDE Modular Composite Spring System
Dynamic responsive brace
Available in 200, 250 & 300mm Lengths and 9 spring ranges.
Composite Bracing
Dynamic response orthotic bracing, unloading bracing and partial foot amputation prosthetics can be some of the most challenging devices to manufacture in-house. If done incorrectly, it’s costly! In the end most O&P companies don’t see enough of these types of patients to develop the knowledge, expertise or to justify the investment in tooling required to produce a device that functions to desired expectations.
PDE removes the guess work
The PDE removes the guess work! Now you have the ability to build your own custom composite bracing and choose and tune the appropriate category for maximum function and energy return for your patients. PDE springs are available in a variety of categories and sizes to address your patients’ needs.
Repeatable results
We’ve developed the process, tested the materials and verified the results in our own patient care and outside test groups. Purchase a PDE kit, follow the instructions and guidelines, and get great, repeatable results.
An upper cuff in combination with the Boa Closure System™ you will have the most solid, secure and adjustable upper cuff section possible. Using this BOA solution the patient has control with a simple twist of the dial to release or tighten the fit as needed.
PDE modular springs may be exchanged to a new one in a matter of minutes. Choose from carbon or thermoplastic, 9 weight / activity spring choices, 200, 250 & 300mm lengths.
Shim wedge spacers are also available to give you the freedom to address post alignment changes of the upper cuff and lower foot plate sections separately.
