EXCLUSIVE: Curtiss-Wright launches end-to-end powerchair solution with customer software benefits
Curtiss-Wright Industrial Division has announced the launch of Powerchair Manager, an “end-to-end total powerchair solution”, ranging through design, manufacture, user experience, remote servicing and data analysis with significant benefits for mobility manufacturers, providers and users.
The Powerchair Manager is being officially unveiled at this year’s Rehacare International Trade Fair for Rehabilitation and Care in Düsseldorf from 13th to 16th September, where Curtiss-Wright can be found on Stand C41 Hall 6.
Features and benefits of Powerchair Manager include customer software to enhance powerchair functionality, which includes unique features within its R-net Customer Code Space.
It streamlines production with Curtiss-Wright’s Manufacturing Programming tool and offers enhanced data-logging to enable the original equipment manufacturer or dealer to learn more about how powerchairs are used and cared for.
Other benefits include a ‘My Powerchair App’ which enables users to learn more about their powerchairs. It is also possible to transmit logged data and store it in the Cloud.
The web portal makes it possible to view and analyze Cloud-stored data, enabling remote diagnostics, management of extended warranties and informed future design decisions.
Tom Walsh, Director of Sales, Medical Mobility Systems at Curtiss-Wright Industrial Division, commented to THIIS: “Powerchair Manager’s extensive, on-board data-logging and connectivity to the Cloud, as well as the My Powerchair App, brings significant benefits to all stakeholders in the powerchair supply and service chain.”
