Riedi Premium 4

Hanning motor vs. conventional motors

Why we rely on Hanning drives for our electric therapy tables

Hanning motor

Made in Germany

Purpose-built for therapy tables, reliable, quiet, long-lasting.

• Exceptionally durable

  Built for continuous use, up to 10× longer service life.
• Very quiet

  Exceptionally smooth running, for a pleasant therapy environment.
• High force reserve

  Reliable performance even under heavy load and intensive use.
• Maintenance-free

  Sealed system, no re-greasing, no regular maintenance required.
• Maximum safety

  Overload protection plus smooth start-and-stop behaviour, tested to the highest standards.

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.
• Higher risk

  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 Premium 4 therapy table combines four segments with an electrically adjustable U-shaped backrest, aimed at physiotherapy practices with increased positioning needs compared with the smaller Premium models. It forms the middle link between the two-segment Premium 2 and the more advanced Premium 5 and Premium 6. Two electric motors control height adjustment and the backrest; electric height adjustment ranges from 53 to 93 cm. At 200 cm length, width is selectable from 65 to 85 cm, with a maximum load of 180 kg. The four segments, combined with the U-shape, allow more differentiated positioning than the smaller Premium models, for example separate adjustment of the torso and legs while the backrest remains upright. Both motors are operated via a single shared hand control. The central roller lift system is included as standard and does not need to be purchased separately. Thanks to the additional segments, the Premium 4 suits physiotherapy treatments that require not only switching between lying and seated positions but also finer positioning of the torso and legs, for example exercises involving different joint positions. 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.
