Technoresurs: Prosthetic legs

2025: Beginning of Use

Ultralight and durable carbon plastic prostheses of the legs began to successfully install patients in Novosibirsk. This was announced on February 25, 2025 by the Technoresurs company. The development is unique to the Russian market and is aimed at import substitution in the field of lower limb prosthetics.

According to TASS, the new prostheses are made of carbon dioxide (carbon fiber) using a special technology of a multilayer combination of composite materials, which allows you to adjust the rigidity and elasticity of the product depending on the individual needs of the patient.

Vitaly Losev, General Director of Technoresurs, said that when creating prostheses, the company's specialists tested dozens of materials, conducted hundreds of technical tests and developed a digital model before manufacturing the final product. The development of prostheses was carried out taking into account the tasks of import substitution, since foreign products dominated this segment until recently.

The process of manufacturing prostheses involves several stages: initially, blanks are created, which are subsequently processed on a hydraulic press under pressure of more than 150 tons. This approach allows an optimal combination of strength and lightness, which is critical for patient comfort when using the prosthesis.

The peculiarity of the development consists in the use of different types of carbon fiber plastic with different structures, depending on the functional requirements for the prosthesis. Thanks to this, prostheses can be adapted to specific operating conditions and physical characteristics of patients.

The project received official support from the Ministry of Science and Innovation Policy of the Novosibirsk Region, which indicates its importance for the development of domestic medical technologies. This made it possible to accelerate the development and implementation of innovative prostheses in clinical practice.^[1]
