Features
- VACX is a carbon fiber foot which has been developed based on the Winged Foot Structure.
- “Active Vacuum Unit” of the VAC-100 product has been placed on the Winged Foot to generate an elevated vacuum inside of the socket.
- Generated vacuum occurs between user's liner and the socket to prevent pistoning movement and grip the stump firmly
- This system cancels out the need of using locks and silicone liners with the pin system.
- Absorbs high reaction forces of the ground and creates vacuum on each step.
- Totally Multi-axial body, allows 10 degrees of Inversion Eversion
- VACX Foot should be used together with low height Foot Shell, please check through the Foot Shell section at the end of the Carbon feet range.
- Foot Shell should be ordered separately.
Vacuuming the Socket
The socket should be sealed with sleeves to create vacuum-able environment inside. Once the environment is sealed, which is compressed and released during the walking, the vacuum unit draws air from the socket through the one-way valve and evacuates it through the pump. After multiple steps of the user, 15 in. Hg (around 0.5 bar) vacuum is created in the sealed socket
