Key Features
1. Flexible Testing Possibilities
The Mover platform supports multiple testing modes essential for modern prosthetic and orthotic development:
Whether for R&D, fatigue evaluation, durability studies, or certification prep, the Mover adapts to your methodology.
2. Precision Data Logging & Control
Designed for high-accuracy measurement, the system offers:
-
Logging of sensor averages at user-defined intervals
-
Full-cycle logging with logarithmic intervals
-
Event-based log capture
-
Ring memory for capturing all data parameters during key events
This enables researchers and engineers to capture detailed structural performance data for reporting, analysis, and compliance documentation.
3. High-Frequency Accuracy
-
Stable force control across the entire load range
-
Reliable performance even at high dynamic frequencies
-
Ideal for fatigue, cyclic load, and long-duration endurance testing
4. Compact & Workshop-Ready
A powerful testing platform that fits easily into any laboratory or workshop:
Its small footprint makes it ideal for P&O research centres, universities, and manufacturers with limited space.
