Qualisys, Noraxon, Velamed and h/p/cosmos joined forces at this year’s ISB congress! The live presentation from the biomechanics lab at the German Sports University Cologne showcased the seamless cooperation of all systems. A special focus was the fully digital workflow with raw data from the gaitway 3d that provides 3 component force, torque and even pressure distribution measurement in one single belt treadmill!
In February 2020 Franz Harrer (President & CEO of h/p/cosmos) gave "the licence to kill" to our R&D team. The mission was to test the limits and even destroy the latest h/p/cosmos treadmill series model quasar and pulsar. We wanted to test the new MCU6 UserTerminal with TouchScreen and keyboard and see at which temperature it will refuse to work and even gets destroyed.
Our team "successfully failed".
The treadmill even worked with the built in keyboard film at incredible temperatures of -39.5°C as well as +48.4°!
For more than 20 years, our sales representative Markus Maier has been consulting the centre for orthopaedic rehabilitation Reha Süd in Freiburg (Germany). With many medical devices from FREI medical, emotion fitness and h/p/cosmos already being installed on site, the decision for the next treadmill was an easy one for CEO Oliver Maehl! The existing pluto® treadmill with long handrails in the cardiovascular training area got a sibling in the medical therapy area!
Our partner zebris will hold a webinar titled:
Gait analysis and gait training in rehabilitation - The use of instrumented zebris treadmill systems in clinical applications
Date: Friday, 10 September 2021 at 2 pm (German time zone, UTC+2)
A medical treadmill, which is used for physiotherapy, cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, ergometry, cardiopulmonary stress test and diagostics as well as for performance diagnostics is a risk class IIb medical device, either when used as stand alone device in a medical environment or when used in connection with an ECG, EMG, ergospirometry or blood pressure monitoring device.
Medical treadmills are risk class IIb medical devices:
These days the world's best athletes are competing in the Paralympics in Tokyo. All of them invested hours, days, months and years of sweat and intense training, in order to reach their personal maximum performance. On a regular basis, athletic performance will be put to test and accompanied by researchers.
Example: In the case of h/p/cosmos, the intended lifespan of the treadmills, based on the information in the instructions for use, is between 10 and maximum 20 years for normal use, provided that all electrical parts and components are replaced after 10 years. For details, see the respective instruction manuals for the devices.
Our long-term partner proxomed released his treadmill portfolio entitled „the glorious 7“ and we are happy and proud to see 3 of our treadmills in this selection.
A great selection of medical grade treadmills – all made in Germany – have been chosen with our treadmills pluto® med, locomotion® med and quasar® med as well as the optional and easy to retrofit unweighting system airwalk® ap. All devices have their modular system, maximum patient and therapist comfort as well as a large range of options and easy to retrofit accessories in common.
Yesterday, Italy’s sprinter Lamont Marcell Jacobs won Men’s 100 metres Olympic Gold and vaporized the European Record with 9.80 seconds. Yet another record broken by combining athletic dedication, intense training and the support of state-of-the-art technology.
