Active wheelchairs

Fast, light and manoeuvrable – active wheelchairs for every requirement

Active wheelchairs offer high-tech solutions for the particular needs of active wheelchair use. Active wheelchairs are the result of intensive research in direct cooperation with experienced active wheelchair users and therapists. Active wheelchairs are available as fixed-frame wheelchairs and as folding wheelchairs.

Suppliers such as Küschall, Pro Activ, Ottobock, Sunrise Medical, Permobil and Meyra offer a wide range of models that can also be seen in the Orthotec AG showroom.

Folding wheelchairs

  • Ortotec Rehatechnik Aktiv-Rollsruhl Küschall Compact

Every millimetre of the Compact was designed, developed and produced according to the most precise standards. With its compact dimensions, this wheelchair fits into almost every car boot.

  • Orthotec Rehatechnik Aktiv-Rollstuhl Küschall Champion

    This is the world's first rigid folding wheelchair. The incredible driving performance enables the user to glide impressively along the street.

Many airlines have now recognised this and accept the Champion as hand luggage.

  • The TRAVELER offers maximum performance in daily use and minimal transport size when travelling. This folding wheelchair is a smooth-running wheelchair offering maximum mobility. With its extremely torsion-resistant and reliable folding mechanics, the TRAVELER combines the handling characteristics of a rigid frame with the advantages of a folding wheelchair. Furthermore, the innovative folding mechanism enables the wheelchair to be folded inwards while sitting in it, allowing many narrow passages to be easily negotiated.

  • This model with fixed or swing-away leg supports is suitable for ambitious users. A high level of mobility is guaranteed thanks to the beautiful design, good handling characteristics and an improved folding mechanism. This wheelchair is available in three different frame options in order to do justice to every user requirement.

  • Statement from the manufacturer; with the QS5 X, we are reinventing the wheelchair with a cross-brace shape that we have developed and that reduces the energy required for folding and unfolding by up to 40%. Once folded, the automatic folding lock holds the QS5 X securely in the slimmest position. As a result, the QS5 X makes handling easier than ever before!

  • The individual wheelchair that perfectly combines everyday and travel requirements.

    Planning a plane trip? Got a small car? – no problem! TIGA FX can be folded into a briefcase style shape, making it ideal for tight spaces. The TIGA FX easily fits into the overhead luggage compartments on planes or even into a small car boot.

  • Orthotec Rehatechnik Aktiv-Rollstuhl Ottobock Avantgarde DV

    While the Avantgarde DV is impressive with its light weight, this does not mean it has lost any of its proven advantages.

    The removable legrests of the Avantgarde DV can also be swung in and out, which makes it possible to get close to objects. Removing the legrests also makes toe propelling possible.

  • Orthotec Rehatechnik Aktiv-Rollstuhl Küschall KSL

    With this wheelchair, Küschall has created the experience of the lightest and most dynamic wheelchair it has ever constructed. To achieve this, every element had to be reconsidered. Not only to make it lighter and more stable, but also to make it better. The result is more than a wheelchair. It's the KSL.

  • The SPEEDY 4all active rigid frame wheelchair combines technical and sporty looks with sophisticated functional elements and adjustment options. Thanks to the wide range of options and accessories as well as the integrated tipping point and seat height adjustment in 1 cm steps, the SPEEDY 4all is well suited for all of life’s situations. Due to its excellent stability, the SPEEDY 4all can be combined with all PRO ACTIV adaptive bikes, traction and attachment devices. With its Heavy Duty equipment, the SPEEDY 4all is designed for extreme loads, such as a body weight of up to 180 kg.

  • The fixed-frame wheelchair excels with its completely individual and welded frame and resultant unbeatable handling characteristics. The complete frame is manufactured as per the wheelchair user’s individual dimensions and requests. The SPEEDY F2 is the correct choice for experienced wheelchair users. Traction devices and adaptive bikes can be connected in just a few hand movements using adapters and the stable frame allows for optimum handling. A removable or welded wheelbase extension can optionally be used to achieve greater traction.

  • The LIFT activ is equipped with a manual seat height adjustment, which is conveniently triggered via an ergonomic handle. With little muscle strength, the seat then lifts upwards by up to 30 cm. In this position, the wheelchair user can be eye-to-eye with a person around 1.75 m tall who is standing up.

  • Orthotec Rehatechnik Aktiv-Rollstuhl Sunrise Sopur Nitrium

    This wheelchair is impressive with its light weight and robust fixed frame with an open frame design. Stability for good driving characteristics and perfect handling are further advantages.

  • The RGK Tiga offers a world full of sensory impressions and responds very quickly to body movements. Experience the ultimate rigidity of the fully welded version (including integrated back, centre of gravity adjustment and footrests).

    To go with this, there is the RGK Frontwheel – the additional wheel for any terrain. It can be connected and removed in seconds and allows the user to move easily, even on extremely uneven ground.

    With a low additional weight of just 2.5 kg, it opens up new paths with almost any RGK Aktiv wheelchair.

  • 25 mm frame tubes combined with a clean frame design give the Hilite a classic, elegant appearance.

  • This wheelchair is built to your specifications in every single length and angular dimension. The entire seat tube can be shaped to your anatomy. The box-frame is manufactured from a single tube made of the hardest weldable aluminium. The sporty frame shape combines extreme rigidity with a low weight.

  • Weight-optimised components and improved fixed-frame properties turn all of your energy impulses directly into movement, which hugely improves the quality of the handling performance.

    Numerous setting options also allow for optimum adjustment to ensure even more comfort and make the Zenit R an active wheelchair that makes no compromises.

  • It is not without reason that TiLite's keywords for these models are “eye-catching” and “no boundaries”. The ZR and ZRA wheelchairs are made from robust titanium. While the ZRA fixed-frame wheelchair offers numerous adjustment options, the fully welded ZR wheelchair can offer experienced users a slightly lower weight. This wheelchair is also available in a heavy duty version with a maximum load of up to 136 kg at a surcharge.

  • The TR active wheelchair is the sportiest of all the TiLite wheelchairs. The welded box frame holds its own in all of life's situations and goes above and beyond in terms of its stability with titanium tubes with a diameter of just 2.5 cm. As opposed to the TR, the TRA fixed-frame wheelchair offers comprehensive adjustment options.

    Every dimension of this active wheelchair with a made-to-measure fixed frame is adjusted precisely to the centimetre or degree. This means that it offers the most individual and needs-focused adaptation to the user's abilities. Suitable for active wheelchair users in day-to-day life.
