Types of Prosthetic Knees
We offer a variety of prosthetic knee options, each designed for different functional requirements and personal preferences:
Microprocessor-Controlled Knees
These advanced knees use built-in sensors to adjust in real time. They continuously analyze movement and make automatic adjustments, allowing for smoother, more natural walking. This reduces the risk of falls and improves overall confidence.
Polycentric Knees
These knees have multiple pivot points, allowing for a more natural range of motion. They provide extra stability, making them a great choice for people who need more support or are very active.
Weight-Activated Knees
These knees lock when you put weight on them. This feature helps prevent accidental buckling. This makes them a great choice for new prosthetic users or individuals who need added security while walking.
Single-Axis Knees
These knees are simple and strong. They allow easy movement and are perfect for people who want a low-maintenance option. These knees are reliable and easy to use.
Manual Locking Knees
These knees let users lock the joint. This provides extra stability for activities like standing for a long time or walking on uneven ground. This feature provides extra security when needed.
The Benefits of In-House Fabrication
At Amputee Clinic, we take pride in offering in-house fabrication for prosthetic knees and other prosthetic solutions. Having an on-site fabrication facility provides several benefits:
- Faster Turnaround Times – We make and adjust prosthetics in-house. This means patients don’t have to wait weeks for their devices to arrive from a third-party lab. This means you can receive a custom-fitted prosthetic knee in less time.
- Immediate Adjustments – If a prosthetic knee needs modifications or fine-tuning, we can make those changes on the spot. This ensures that each patient receives a comfortable and functional device without unnecessary delays.
- Customized Fit and Precision – No two patients are the same, and their prosthetic solutions shouldn’t be either. Our in-house team can make real-time adjustments to improve comfort, performance, and overall mobility.
- On-Site Repairs – Over time, prosthetic devices may need maintenance or repairs. With in-house fabrication, we can quickly address any issues, minimizing downtime and keeping you active.
- Cost Savings – Removing the need for third-party fabrication reduces costs, allowing us to offer high-quality prosthetics.
Common Prosthetic Knee Questions
What type of prosthetic knee is best for my activity level and lifestyle?
The best prosthetic knee depends on your mobility goals, activity level, and daily needs.

During your consultation, our expert team will assess your needs and recommend the best prosthetic knee to enhance your mobility and comfort.
How do microprocessor-controlled prosthetic knees improve mobility?
Microprocessor-controlled knees use advanced sensors to adjust in real time, making movement more natural and stable.
