No other computerized exercise system adjusts to the patient to ensure,
optimum programming and safety,
but rather having the patient adjust to the system.
For the first time, you can now use high technology to manage and control your exercise
system.
The following presentation describes the Implementation of the ACES at NASA
The following are a summary of the features and
benefits of the ACES product line.
The Ariel ACES 2000 Operating System
uniquely controls, records, evaluates, and modifies functional performance
with programmed parameters that are user defined.
Specific Models
CES 2000 Back
- The Ariel CES 2000 Back is ergonomically designed for lumbar extension and
abdominal flexion . It specifically isolates the abdominal-lumbar areas with
simple adjustments.
- The Ariel Back is easy to use. Electric motors adjust the seat to its optimum
position, allowing quick and efficient patient positioning.
- Lumbar extension and abdominal flexion can be tested, quantified and exercised
independently.
- The Ariel Back has an adjustable range of motion and programmable stops, which
allow specific safety in testing and rehabilitation according to patient needs.
- A minimal equipment footprint reduces space requirements.
- It is designed for additional attachments, such as lift testing and lateral back
flexion/extension.
- Protocols can be designed to mimic specific lifting situations.
CES 2000 Multi-Function
- The Ariel CES 2000 Multi-Function allows closed kinetic chain testing
and rehabilitation. Multi-joint whole body, lower and upper torso exercises, such as
squats or bench presses, can be performed objectively and quantified. It can be used
bilaterally and unilaterally for over twenty-five exercises.
- The Ariel Multi-Function allows the testing and reconditioning of an entire
extremity in a functional mode, and can be applied to a total body reconditioning exercise
program in conjunction with individual joint treatment. No attachments are necessary.
- The Ariel Multi-Function allows for versatile and flexible work hardening.
- Protocols can be designed to mimic specific work situations such as dynamic lifting or
sport activities such as vertical jumping.
- A built in lift task test format, correlated to the NIOSH Test database, is available.
CES 2000 Arm-Leg
- The Ariel CES 2000 Arm-Leg is designed for isolated, single joint movements of the knee,
elbow, shoulder and ankle. It can also be used for multi-joint exercises.
- It allows either unilateral or bilateral joint testing without repositioning the
patient.
- The Arm-Leg has infinite seat adjustments for precise joint positioning. Attachments are
available for versatile applications.
- An active extremity can control the movement of the contralateral extremity in a passive
manner.
- A minimal equipment footprint reduces space requirements.
