Conventional motors

Often cheaper to buy, but more expensive to run.

• Shorter service life

  Not designed for continuous use, faster wear is likely.
• Louder in operation

  Higher noise levels, disruptive for therapy and patients.
• Lower force reserve

  Performance drops off under heavy load or frequent use.
• Maintenance-intensive

  Requires regular re-greasing and servicing, time-consuming and costly.

  Fewer protective mechanisms, higher risk of failure and injury.

Bottom line: the Hanning motor is a sustainable investment in quality, safety, and efficiency, for smooth operation and satisfied patients.

The electric Riedi Bobath 1e therapy table is the one-piece standard version of the Vojta table with single-motor electric height adjustment, a straightforward, reliable solution for the Vojta method without additional segments or special functions. It suits practices that prefer an uncomplicated, robust base setup over a pricier multi-segment variant. Electric height adjustment ranges from 50 to 105 cm at a selectable width of 100 to 120 cm, operated via hand control of the electric motor. The wide selectable width accommodates both adult patients and children treated with the Vojta method. The continuous, one-piece treatment surface provides even support for the positioning techniques used in Vojta treatment, without the complexity of additional segments, and thanks to its generous height range can be set appropriately for both children and adults. As standard, the table comes with a central roller lift system and 70 mm wheels. The Bobath 1e suits the Vojta method and further physiotherapy applications within Bobath therapy, where a one-piece, stable treatment surface with a generous height range is needed and the practitioner frequently switches the table between different working heights. Anyone needing additional segmentation or an adjustable headrest will find it in the two-piece Bobath 2e. A lock-out box compliant with the German Medical Devices Act (MPG) is included as standard: it disconnects the electric motor from the mains after adjustment, preventing unintended movement of the couch. The overall length is 200 cm. The table supports loads up to 180 kg.
