C-Leg’s greatest strength is helping amputees rediscover their independence. The mechatronic leg prosthesis system is trusted by as many users worldwide. With its numerous innovative features, the new C-Leg marks the start of a new era: It’s the best C-Leg of all time – safer, more dynamic and easier. From stairs and ramps to varying surfaces and walking backwards – the C-Leg leg prosthesis system adjusts itself dynamically to various everyday situations. A relaxed standing position with a slightly flexed knee is intuitive now. Also new are the design and the option of controlling the knee joint via an app. Finally, we’ve taken the stumble recovery function to an even higher level.

Fluid movements occur first and foremost when the prosthesis responds quickly to different everyday situations. The resistance of the C-Leg adapts to all walking situations in real time, whether on level ground, stairs, ramps or varying surfaces. This gives you a noticeably smoother and more reliable movement pattern – and energy for the more important things in life.

The C-Leg supports you when standing. Using a discreet movement pattern, you can assume a relaxed position with a slightly flexed knee. You might already be familiar with this function. It is especially comfortable on slopes and uneven surfaces. A new feature of the C-Leg is that your prosthetist can alternatively set the intuitive stance function at your request. With this function, the joint detects from your movement when you’d like to stand in a relaxed position and when you need support for your next step.
