Linx Limb System

Linx - Fully Integrated Limb System

There’s Nothing Like It in the World

Linx behaves more like a real leg than anything else on the market. It helps do the thinking for the patient, sensing and coordinating its response across both the ankle and knee joints.

It is the world's only fully integrated limb system. It is also a winner of multiple awards for design and innovation. It is a microprocessor knee and integrated limb system designed to deliver an experience that mimic the incredible and complex structure of the human leg.

Linx actively senses and analyses data on user movement, activity, environment and terrain. It provides a coordinated stream of instructions to the hydraulic support system.

It ensures fast adjustment and easy navigation of slopes and steps, allowing amputees to think about where they are going, rather than how they are going to get there.

Note: Ankle hydraulics mimic the eccentric contractions of muscles that move the foot. There is also evidence that hydraulic ankles reduce deep tissue trauma, they also allow for more symmetrical loading and less compensatory movements, thus reducing the loads on other parts of the body and hence the likelihood of osteoarthritis in those articulations than would be the case with fixed ankles. Linx is also biomimetic in that is co-ordinates the movement/responses of the knee and ankle.

By considering the natural function of the limb and replacing its structure through a unique combination of design elements, Blatchford biomimetic hydraulic technology provides greater safety and a more natural walking experience.

Linx Programming App

Programming Linx just got faster and simpler with the Linx Programming App. With it's simple to follow automated smart programming, simply connect via Bluetooth and program in just a few walking steps. You'll also have access to advanced fine tuning and be able to save and restore settings.
