MTS helps a prosthetic foot manufacturer accurately evaluate
prototype durability at an early stage of development.

Stealth Composites sought to enter the highly competitive prosthetic
foot market with a cutting-edge design that is both functional and
durable. To accelerate this entry, the developers decided to
determine the product fatigue life at an early stage of development
by testing to a rigorous but optional new standard, ISO 22675. At
the time, however, few if any test systems were available that could
reliably test to ISO 22675 requirements. Eric Rubie, President of Stealth Composites, discusses how his company looked to MTS for a test solution that could accurately match the test profiles required by ISO 22675 to deliver repeatable, real world simulation of the loads and moments of walking.
