Vertical stand allows for socialization at a peer-to-peer level.
Inspired design
The F-Series builds on over 50 years of experience to create our most capable family of front wheel drive power wheelchairs ever. We’ve combined a low center of gravity, optimized weight distribution and powerful high efficiency motors to offer enhanced base stability, obstacle climbing and chair responsiveness.
Stand without compromise
We combined all of the performance features of the F5 Corpus with superior power standing functionality. Fully programmable standing sequences allow user position to be optimized using supine, semi-reclined or sit-to-stand techniques.
Strength and stability
Power meets performance on the new F5 Corpus with a blazing 7.5mph top end speed and upgraded ComfortRide Pro suspension. All-wheel independent, fully adjustable, oil dampened shocks provide the ultimate in ride comfort while helping to reduce vibrations that can transfer from terrain up to user.
Small footprint, big impact
The F3 Corpus offers the smallest footprint of the F-series front wheel drive power wheelchairs. Its compact size and agility allows users to easily maneuver in and out of tight spaces.

Manual wheelchair frame materials: 6000 & 7000 series aluminum
Hi again. In our last Balanced Ride blog we discussed the importance of material science in the complex rehab technology industry. Frame material choice in ultra-lightweight manual wheelchairs (ULMWCs) plays a pivotal role for someone searching for a more Balanced Ride. Today we are going to dive a bit deeper how and why aluminum is used when manufacturing ULMWCs. Aluminum is the material used most often, though it is still surprising that it was only 50 years ago that people started to use it in the design and production of ULMWCs. Especially when you consider the fact that wheelchairs or similar devices have been used for over 2000 years.
We take a personal approach to complex rehab equipment.
That’s right, personal.
Because we know every person faces unique challenges in mobility, comfort and safety. Challenges our pioneering spirit can solve through design, engineering and technology.
