Invacare Corporation has announced the global launch of the Invacare TDX SP2 Power Wheelchair with LiNX technology and Motion Concepts Ultra Low Maxx Positioning System.
The TDX SP2 power wheelchair is the newest Invacare-branded power wheelchair offering in North America building on the long-standing heritage of the TDX family of power wheelchairs. In North America, the company will build this product at its headquarters in Elyria, Ohio. For European customers, the product will be assembled in Germany.
“The launch of the TDX SP2 power wheelchair is the biggest sign yet of our reinvigorated product pipeline, and our focus on bringing increasingly novel solutions for clinically complex needs,” said Matthew E. Monaghan, chairman, president and CEO. “Our rehab sales team is armed with great solutions to address a broad range of end-user and provider needs. The TDX SP2 with LiNX technology should help enable long-term revenue growth for the company and allow our customers to provide great service cost-effectively, all while improving the quality of life for end users.”
The TDX SP2 power wheelchair base builds on several of Invacare’s core patented technologies, including SureStep suspension, Stability Lock and G-Trac tracking technology, which ensure smooth driving and maneuverability. The Ultra Low Maxx power positioning from Invacare’s Motion Concepts subsidiary creates a highly adjustable, modular system, which allows providers and therapists to create a seating, positioning and driving experience that delivers comfort and support for the end user. Developed by incorporating extensive user insights, LiNX Technology is available across a full lineup of drive controls, ranging from simple drive-only remotes (REM110) to a remote with a sleek, Enhanced Rehabilitation Touch Screen (REM400) or Standalone Display Module (REM500).
“The TDX SP2 with LiNX technology is like having the first smart phone in the industry. This is revolutionary technology that allows high-end complex rehabilitation needs to be met with exceptional functionality and ease of use," Monaghan continued. "The LiNX electronics system includes a touch screen display, wireless programming, and remote monitoring for better clinical evaluations, easy, intuitive programming and great connected functionality for providers.”
