Dual-Axis Weight-Bearing ForcePlates
Experience precise weight-bearing evaluation with the E-LINK Dual-Axis ForcePlate system. Measure forces in multiple directions for accurate upper and lower extremity exercises, supporting effective rehab.
Weight-Bearing Solutions
Achieve Functional Goals
The position of the ForcePlates in the BaseFrame can be adjusted to accommodate different stance widths, from pediatric to adult patients. For added flexibility, the ForcePlates can be removed from the BaseFrame and used with other everyday equipment to achieve functional goals. While primarily designed for lower extremity use, the ForcePlates also support evaluation and weight-bearing exercises for seated balance, making them a versatile tool for comprehensive rehabilitation.
Weight-Bearing Evaluation and exercise
- Evaluation
- Exercise
The patient stands on the ForcePlates with the medial arch placed over the gap between the front and back ForcePlates. Thus, foot positioning is standardized reducing any variability for analysis.
As the patient stands on the ForcePlates, the clinician easily activates the software to perform a timed balance test for 5,10,15,30 or 60 seconds. The patient's symmetrical weight distribution over the ForcePlates is scientifically quantified in both the anterior-posterior (front/back) and medial-lateral (left/right) axes simultaneously.
Fluctuations in the weight distributed over the ForcePlates are instantly measured and results displayed both in text and graph format for immediate feedback and analysis.
The average % deviation from the center documents symmetry of the patient's stance and the standard deviation % documents stability of the patient's balance.
Up to 10 tests can be compared simultaneously for progress reporting over time and reports are easily generated for outcome measures.

Balance training is a major benefit of the Dual-Axis ForcePlate System and the innovative, interactive Activities bring an exciting element into the therapy session, motivating the patient to exercise. Lower extremities are strengthened whilst also encouraging proprioception, motor control and balance.
Baseline measurements are taken of the patient's Limits of Stability within their comfort zone and these measurements are then used to set the single or dual axis activities. The parameters can be graded to suit the patient's physical and cognitive state, addressing various therapeutic objectives, as well as ensuring the goals are achievable for each and every patient.
The patient controls their balance for the activity by the loading and unloading of their weight distributed over the ForcePlates. Exercise graphs are generated for each exercise session and form part of the report.
The Activities can be saved in a set sequence and used again for the next session thus saving set-up time for the clinician as well as familiarizing the patient to the Activities.
All the Activities can be graded for progression over time and help build up the patient's confidence in their abilities whilst exercising towards good balance control.

Interactive Activities
Four ForcePlates are ideal for weight-bearing balance training and, with the integration of highly gradable game Activities, exercise is focused either for single-axis or dual-axis movement. As well as enjoying the exercise, the patient is concentrating on moving objects into place on the screen by adjusting weight over each ForcePlate - muscle strengthening is encouraged as well as proprioception and motor control, thus addressing a variety of therapy objectives.
