As a young spin-off of the Ulm University of Applied Sciences, the company impresses with groundbreaking technologies and innovative concepts in the field of technical orthopedics.
HKK Bionics has developed the exomotion® hand one, a myoelectric hand orthosis. This revolutionary orthosis enables people with paralyzed hands to grip again and cope with everyday life with fewer restrictions. The orthosis is individually tailored to the patient's needs with the help of motors that move the fingers via artificial tendons[2][3]. In addition to the hand orthosis, the company also offers training and services for specialist companies[2].
The Mission of HKK Bionics is to give people with motor impairments new mobility and quality of life through innovative, active orthoses. The company's Values - quality, safety and progress - are the basis for innovative solutions that sustainably improve people's lives[1][3]. The close cooperation with medical supply stores makes it possible to provide individual care for patients and optimally support their abilities[1].
Although specific sustainability goals are not explicitly mentioned, HKK Bionics attaches great importance to developing innovative solutions for people with special needs and thus making a social contribution. The high adaptability of their products and the cooperation with partner companies ensure long-term support for patients[1][2].
HKK Bionics is committed to changing lives by overcoming movement restrictions. With its vision of enabling more freedom through movement, the company has taken on an important role in medical technology and continues to develop forward-looking solutions for people with hand paralysis[1][3].
