JAWS
JAWS is a unique, heavy duty, voluntary opening (VO), terminal device-prehensor that can be operated with a
normal harness and cable system or JAWS can be used manually as a snap “on-off” gripper for controlling all
types of handles and objects. JAWS’s gripping force is controlled by a high tension spring that is capable of
being easily adjusted to four different levels of prehension (gripping force), using a self-locking shifting
Yoke-Lever. JAWS can also be mounted onto an “electric or myo” type prosthesis using a special myo to body
powered adapter, available from most prosthetic service providers-facilities.
