We have a tilt platform designed by Mike Broadhurst from the Newcastle
Regional Medical Physics Dept. It was manufactured by Consort Engineering
Ltd in Hyde, Manchester (Tel: 0161 366 6883). Had settings to static test at
the standard 12 and 16 degrees. Not sure if still available or whether the
company still exists but may be worth a try.

Dear All,
I'm struggling to find information on currently available wheelchair
stability / tilt test ramps or platforms and would be grateful for any
information on the method and equipment you are using to assess stability.
Thank you
David
