GEARLESS-BRUSHLESS GB™ MOTOR.
Invacare® GB™ motors are not only a key component of TrueTrack technology, the design is 75% efficient resulting in 17% more battery range than Invacare’s
TRUETRACK TECHNOLOGY.
The patented TrueTrack technology features GB motors and motor controller. This feature helps keep the power wheelchair on a true forward path – even on many slopes, thresholds and uneven terrains. TrueTrack mini- mizes the need for veer correction, diminishing fatigue for joystick and switch drivers.
TrueTrack Technology is beneficial for the client for the following reasons:
•As the power wheelchair holds a truer course, the driver needs to make fewer course corrections. This makes driving more efficient by reducing the necessary amount of movement. Reducing the required movement can increase overall speed (i.e. the client may be able to move down a hallway faster, as less compensatory movements are required), decrease fatigue, and promote safety/independence while driving, because the chair is not pulled off course. This is true for drivers using a proportional control as well as a digital or
•This feature is critical for clients who fatigue easily, as less compensatory movements are required.
•This feature also is critical for clients who use a
