Precise Pin Positioning
As part of an osteosynthesis procedure, bone and bone fragments are fixed for mutual stabilization. This is frequently done with K-Wires. The PinPositioner is a targeting aid to position K-Wires. It allows the user to accurately guide the K-Wires through drill sleeves in the desired direction and inclination.
Advantages
Three drill sleeves for drill wires with inner diameters of 1.1 mm, 2.3 mm and 3.0 mm.
Self-retaining fixation is possible at angles between 45° and 135°.
Due to the small, handy format of the PinPositioner (80 mm x 44 mm), the drill wire can be placed freehand at even more acute angles.
Controlled compression is possible by rotating the drill sleeve with a fixed PinPositioner. One rotation corresponds to 1.0 mm feed.
The direction and planned inclination of the K-Wire position can be checked by aiming over the straight arm before the K-Wire is screwed in.
The PinPositioner is suitable for small animals weighing up to 20 kg.
