Michelangelo Hand

Part # Description  

Product information

The Axon-Bus system is a new system for transradial and transhumeral fittings. Axon stands for adaptive eXchange Of Neuroplacement data. The Axon-Bus itself is a new development by Ottobock for the field of exoprosthetics. It was derived from safety-related bus systems in the aviation and automotive industries and is a true innovation of our Research and Development department.

The advantage is that it constitutes an optimized, self-contained data transmission system. The individual components communicate with each other perfectly, eliminating losses in terms of data transmission, speed and functionality. This results in a plus in safety and reliability for the user. Compared to conventional systems, this is achieved by a significant reduction in sensitivity to outside interference.

In combination with the Michelangelo hand, the Axon-Bus system offers more degrees of freedom than ever before. The user benefits from enhanced hand functionality. The modular prosthesis system can be expanded with additional components in the future.

Frequently Bought Together

AxonCharge Integral

AxonCharge Integral

The 757L500 AxonCharge Integral is designed to charge the 757B500/757B501 AxonEnergy Integral of the Ottobock Axon-Bus® prosthetic system. Charging is performed automatically after the charging plug has been connected to the charging receptacle of the 757B500/757B501 AxonEnergy Integral.The charging plug is secured to the charging receptacle by the integrated magnet. The special contour of the charging receptacle and charging plug ensures quick, reliable positioning of the two components. LEDs indicate when the charger is ready and the current battery capacity.The 757L500 AxonCharge Integral is intended exclusively for the purpose of charging the 757B500/757B501 AxonEnergy Integral.

AxonEnergy Integral

AxonEnergy Integral

The 757B501 AxonEnergy Integral serves exclusively to provide power to the Axon-Bus prosthetic system. The battery consists of 3 Li-Ion cells. The integrated electronics protect the battery against short circuits, overvoltage, undervoltage and charging outside the allowable temperature range.The Axon-Bus cable with the three-pin receptacle is used to exchange data and connects the respective prosthesis components to the battery.The 757B5001 AxonEnergy Integral may only be used in conjunction with components of the Ottobock Axon-Bus prosthetic system. Only the 757L500 AxonCharge Integral may be used for charging.

AxonRotation – Active Rotation

AxonRotation – Active Rotation

The Active AxonRotation unit for the Michelangelo hand. AxonRotation fits perfectly into the Axon-Bus Prosthesis System and is reducing compensatory movement to a minimum level. AxonRotation unit combined with the Michelangelo hand further expands the functionality of the entire prosthesis by providing the user active rotation in addition to an already highly functional Michelangelo Hand. Seven different gripping patterns, automatic thumb positioning and active hand rotation offer the user a great variety of functionality and further enhances the capability of the Michelangelo Hand System. AxonRotation is programmed for more intuitive and effective use benefitting the user in many ADL´s. Not only do unilateral users benefit from bimanual activities, but bilateral users immediately appreciate and benefit the most from the active rotation. Active rotator is only 7mm longer than passive rotator (9S501) so it can be easily added to (or exchanged with) existing prosthetic devices.

AxonRotation Adapter – Passive Rotation

AxonRotation Adapter – Passive Rotation

The AxonRotation Adapter 9S501 allows passive pronation/supination. These functions support the patient during his or her daily activities and provide the highest rehabilitation value. The AxonRotation Adapter 9S501 promotes a physiologically correct body posture and reduces the need for unnatural, compensating body movements.Passive, unlimited 360° pronation/supination of the Axon-Bus gripping component is possible from an activation moment > 2.0 Nm via the integrated ratchet system. There are 24 ratchet positions, one at every 15°, for this purpose.
