Ankle Fracture Plating System
Apollo provides a distinguishing clinical advantage by drastically improving intraoperative and postoperative visualization of bones and joint spaces. Plates are made using proprietary composite consisting of an additive manufactured (3D printing) titanium shell injection molded with a novel PEEK polymer. The system features a comprehensive selection of 26 unique plate options from 6 plate families.

Hybrid Materials and Manufacturing
The plates are not only visually green, but also environmentally green. Produced using a zero waste process, these plates are made through a proprietary additive manufacturing (3D printing) and injection molding process.


Tapered proximal end easily and comfortably fits under soft tissue upon insertion
Special syndesmotic holes are designed for the 4.3mm screws and standard suture buttons. They are anatomically angled 35°, posterior to anterior
Screw heads sit below the plate surface when fully engaged
Ø2.9mm and Ø3.7mm locking and non-locking screws can be placed up to 15° off-axis
Plate holes allow for Ø2.9mm and Ø3.7mm locking and non-locking screws
Proprietary Hybrid Titanium/ PEEK construction is ortholucent and malleable
Low profile, contoured plate offers strength while reducing soft tissue irritation
Distal fibula screw cluster allows for multiple points of fixation
Additive manufacturing offers the capability to mirror complex anatomy and create very smooth contours that minimize soft tissue irritation. This technology creates the shell structure of the plate which offers the thinnest section of titanium on the market, giving Apollo its radiolucent properties.*
* PEEK pellets are melted and injected into a custom mold. Any left over sprues or scrap can be reground into the raw material and used again. Components produced using additive manufacturing require minimal to no additional machining and create no titanium waste.

Screw Technology
The unique combination of additive manufactured titanium and injection molded PEEK leads to the patented screw locking technology of PEEKLOC™


Screw mount below the plate surface
Even angled screws remain flush to the plate

Self-countersinking feature allows surgeon to skip countersinking step
PEEKLOC™ and Self-countersinking Screws
All Apollo locking and non-locking screws can be placed up to 15° off-axis.



The PEEK construct allows for a quick thread engagement, and smooth tactile feel, while the proprietary hidden titanium structure enforces the solid locking strength. PEEKLOC™ technology creates the elastic locking friction and greatly reduces the risk of cold-welding during screw insertion.

Ortholucent
This thin cross-sectional structure of titanium gives the plates “ortholucency”, a unique advantage over traditional metal implants where the radiolucent properties drastically improve the visualization of bones and joint spaces. Intraoperatively, surgeons benefit from improved fracture and joint reduction imaging, while postoperatively they can better assess if bone is healing properly, potentially leading to earlier weight bearing decisions.
