Medical castors

e-SMART

The Manner e-SMART castor is equipped with a central locking system. The superior ergonomics and safety of the patented castor locking system improve and facilitate work.

Ideal for use in hospitals, care institutions and other places where easy and reliable castors with remote locking are required. The castor can be locked and released easily and ergonomically at the push of a button. The locking/unlocking actuator is embedded in the wheel and connected to the control system. The wheel is placed directly on the horizontal round or square tube, making it quick to install. The motion sensor allows automatic locking.

The e-SMART castor is made of durable, fibreglass-reinforced polyamide. e-SMART castors are also available as conductive versions, and they can be customised using the customer’s colour scheme, subject to minimum order quantities.
