Traction devices play big role in this therapy. One of the most commonly used traction device type is motorized traction device. Commercially available tackles apply tractive power to do patient depends on the some parameters which are duration and force level. If patients change their positions during the treatment, tractive power will covary with movement. In this study, motorized traction device has been designed and performed by using load sensors, dc motor and mechanical structure. The system has been controlled via microcontroller. Main focus of this design is to implement precision tractive power to the patient thanks to feedback from the sensors. Also realized traction system is cheaper than the other traction devices.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessTraction TherapyTraction DevicesNovel Motorized Traction DeviceConference Object10.1109/ELECO.2015.7394515112211252-s2.0-84963818065N/AWOS:000380410800194N/A
