We'll be Exhibiting at the 32nd Scientific Meeting of Japanese Academy of Prosthetists and Orthotists (JAPO)

We are pleased to announce that we will be exhibiting at the 32nd Scientific Meeting of the Japanese Academy of Prosthetists and Orthotists (JAPO), which will be held on July 4–5, 2026, under the theme "Learning from Clinical Practice and Building the Future" at the Sapporo Education and Culture Hall in Sapporo, Japan. At our booth, we will showcase products and solutions designed to support the future of prosthetics, orthotics, and rehabilitation practice. Our team looks forward to meeting you and discussing how our products can contribute to your clinical and rehabilitation needs.

Exhibit Lineup

Inspired by the conference theme, "Learning from Clinical Practice and Building the Future," we will present products that reflect the expertise and knowledge accumulated through years of clinical experience, together with solutions that will help shape the future of clinical practice and prosthetic and orthotic fabrication.

■■ Ortop Central Fabrication Service - Manufacture of new prosthetics and orthotics for early stage of rehabilitation -

The concept of this Ortop Central Fabrication Service is to deliver proper number of product in timely manner to users who need Prosthetics and Orthotics all over Japan by collaborating with regional P&O workshops. Through this service, we also aim to assist regional P&O workshops by providing solutions for quality stability, cost reduction, quick delivery, and productivity enhancement. If you visit the exhibition, please stop by our booth. We look forward to seeing you there.

Ortop Central KAFO
Based on the measurement and design from a specified Support Design Application, we will manufacture a KAFO (Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthosis) through our sophisticated production line at Kawamura Gishi and deliver it to your P&O workshop in approximately one week.

Ortop Central Damen Corset
Based on the measurement and design through a dedicated application sent by your P&O workshop, we will manufacture the Damen Corset using Kawamura Gishi's production line and deliver the product to you.

Ortop Central Damen Pattern Service
We have a track record of producing over 20,000 Damen corset patterns per year. We produce Damen Corset patterns using our special CAD software based on the measurements from your workshop and our company's prescribed body shape patterns and send them to you by email.

Ortop Central M.A.S.^® digital
M.A.S. technology advocate Mr. Marlo Ortiz creates the model data from the measurement data sent via the dedicated app, Kawamura Gishi performs CAM cutting, plaster coating, and delivers a perfect positive model to your P&O workshop.

Ortop Central T.F. Digital
Using the measurement data submitted through our dedicated form, Kawamura Gishi will fabricate the socket. After the trial fitting is carried out by your facility, Kawamura Gishi will manufacture the final socket and deliver it to your facility.

Ortop Central Medical Body
With the cast and photographs taken by your facility, Kawamura Gishi will fabricate the medical body. After producing a test fitting model, we will send it to your facility for the trial fitting. Once the fitting has been completed and the model has been returned to us, Kawamura Gishi will fabricate the final product and deliver it to your facility.

■■Össur -Proposal for Prosthetic Components Effective in Early-Stage Rehabilitation-

As part of the exhibition of Össur products, we will be showcasing not only newly approved products in 2026, but also the Connect TF system — designed to facilitate the assessment of prosthetic adaptation and support early rehabilitation with femoral prostheses. Additionally, we will present packaged prosthetic components that are especially effective for use in rehabilitation.

Connect^® TF
The Connect^® TF is an adjustable, off-the-shelf socket offered by Ossur for low-activity femoral amputees. The socket depth, circumferential diameter, and strut angle can be adjusted to match the amputation and follow the shape of the amputation. This also allows early stage prosthetic fitting for new amputees with edema and variable amputation volume.

Pro-Flex^® LP Junior
The trusted Pro-Flex^® series is built to support children through their most active and important developmental years. From classroom activities to outdoor adventures, its responsive design keeps up with an active lifestyle, giving children the confidence to move freely and participate alongside their friends.

A waterproof foot cover comes standard and can be easily removed by the user for quick cleaning and maintenance. This practical feature has earned high praise from parents and caregivers alike.

■■Introducing Orthotic Solutions to Support Patients with Cardiovascular Disease　

We will exhibit and introduce our renewed gait analyzer “Gait Judge System G2”, which can be used as a feedback tool for rehabilitation. In addition, we will showcase the “Gait Innovation,” which allows for easy and quick height adjustments with the Height Adjust System, as well as the “MILINE” and "Triple Action" series by Becker.

You can actually touch and try out the products at the venue. Don't miss this opportunity to experience the latest technology!

MILINE^TM

Designed for individuals with unstable knee or ankle joints due to lower limb impairments or severe spasticity requiring orthotic correction, this joint provides controlled motion using a powerful spring and offers high strength and durability.

Triple Action^®

This ankle joint provides effective support for individuals with lower-limb impairments caused by insufficient knee or ankle stability, as well as for those with severe spasticity who require correction using orthotic devices.
Equipped with three independent adjustment mechanisms, it enables rehabilitation programs to be tailored to the user's condition and stage of recovery..

Gait Judge System G2

This gait analyzer can be attached to orthotics to objectively evaluate gait. By walking with the dedicated attachment attached to the Gait Solution series or Double Krenzak foot joint, the plantar flexion braking force and ankle joint angle generated by the orthosis during walking can be measured and the state of the rocker function can be checked in real time on the dedicated tablet. The optional surface electromyograph can also be used to check myoelectric waveforms during walking.
※ The Gait Judge System G2 was developed by Pacific Supply Co., Ltd. under the guidance of Professor Koji Ohata of the Department of Physical Therapy, Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, Hokuriku University.

Gait Innovation

Gait Innovation is a knee-ankle-foot orthosis (KAFO) designed to facilitate early gait rehabilitation by lowering the barrier to height adjustment, in consideration of the importance of early orthotic intervention.
