OrfitransÒ Medium Soft
New offering helps patient rehabilitation after limb loss
Orfit Industries has extended its orthotics product range with the OrfitransÒ
Medium Soft, which is made of stronger thermoplastic material offering
optimal patient comfort. The ORFITRANSÒ Medium
Soft, is designed for both prosthetic transtibial (i.e.
below-knee) check (or diagnostic) sockets as well as
for lower limb orthoses. Developed by Orfit’s R&D
team, the latest offering completes the OrfitransÒ
product range of high melting temperature thermoplastic
materials for the production of external prosthetic
check sockets. The new Medium Soft version can be
submitted to pressures of approximately 75 MPa (megapascal,
equivalent to 750 bar) and is available in sheets of
different sizes and thicknesses (5/16 in., 3/8 in., 1/2 in., 19/32
in.) depending on the patient’s physical condition.
