General Catalogue 2023 DIGITAL

153 Meeting customer requirements and wishes is naturally part of our philosophy. We offer a wide range of products that best meet the needs of each customer. This also includes the sale of medical devices as defined by the German Medical Devices Act (MPG, Medizin- produktegesetz), which are intended for use on humans for the detection, prevention, monitoring, treatment or alleviation of diseases or injuries. The use of such medical devices is particularly recom- mended for applications in the field of medical foot care. The corresponding classification of the respective products as medical devices with a medical purpose is evident from the presentation of the respective product in this catalog. With its clear layout which allows easy orientation and its supplementary information, this catalogue is intended to provide the reader with genuine recommendations and decision-making aids. The work was made even easier when, for example, GERLACH introduced its patented fitted fast tension device and simple clear view servicing in 1984. Devices for sucking up unhealthy dust from grinding perform effective- ly and quietly these days. Micromotor hand pieces with spray technology are available for fine work. A fine mist of spray binds the grinding dust and at the same time cools the working area. Drills and grinders at high revolutions are more pleasant and less painful for the patient and save time and are safer for the podiatrist. Since 1993 modern two-in-one cabinets have offered the opportunity to choose between either suction or spray technology depending on the work to be carried out or the size of the burr. The smart appearance of the cabinets is bound up with comfort and functionality. GERLACH foot care cabinets keep modern technology ready to hand and accessible for pleasant working with short hand movements. For more comfort, safety and health protection during foot care, patient chairs have been developed from an ergonomical point of view. With their help, painful tension and back damage can be prevented. The height and inclination can be adjus- ted, and the leg and foot supports can be moved into the perfect position, whatever the work. The podiatrist works with a straight back, is less tired and is not forced to work in an uncomfortable position. The correct work chair also contributes to maintaining good health. The Pending chair is the way forward here. The seat position is flexible so it automatically provides the correct position and perfect protective support for the vertebrae. The variable pulse rhythm also improves blood flow and strengthens the muscles.
