Bench Alignment
The instructions in this section are for practitioner use only.
7.1
Static Alignment
With the flexion accommodated the build line
should pass through the center of the socket
in the sagittal (A–P) plane and through the
SuperSACH foot, as shown. Make sure you
accommodate the heel height of the shoe.
Build Line
This should fall 1/3 of the foot length from the
heel.
7.2
Dynamic Alignment
Coronal Plane
Ensure that M-L thrust is minimal by adjusting
relative positions of socket and foot.
Sagittal Plane
Check for smooth transition from heel strike
to toe-off. Ensure also that when standing the
heel and toe are evenly loaded and that both
are touching the floor.
7.3
Transfemoral Alignment
Align transfemoral components according to
fitting instructions supplied with the knee,
keeping the build line relative to this device,
as shown.
