How is the HUMAC NORM chair configuration superior to the other designs?
The HUMAC NORM chair / dynamometer configuration was designed and released in 1995, after extensive study of the industry standard design of T-base and elbow-based machines with tethered computer carts. Our engineers and product specialists developed the superior and patented sliding chair / fixed dynamometer configuration with integrated computer system.

Does the HUMAC NORM include a manual front panel?
No. Manually operated front panels are hold-over designs from the early 1980's when faith in computers was not as high. Additionally, there is nothing a manual front panel can do that a well designed software package can't do better. We anticipate front panel designs will disappear.

Why does the HUMAC NORM have adjustable mechanical Range-of-Motion stops?
Range-of-Motion stops are in place for safety. The HUMAC NORM's adjustable ROM stops allow the user to match the machine allowable ROM to the patients ROM. This is especially important for patients with limited ROM. Fixed ROM stops only provide protection for patients with the maximum ROM. Patients with limited ROM have NO protection until they exceed their ROM and hit the fixed mechanical stop located at the end of the ROM for the average patient. For example, an ACL patient with 70 ROM, HUMAC NORM allows the operator to set the ROM stops at 70 degrees. Other systems have one setting - 120 degrees.
