The importance of central locking for medical casters

Working in a nursing and hospital environment can be very stressful. Medical equipment such as hospital beds must be constantly stopped, pushed, and locked and unlocked. Some casters even require staff to use their foot to search for the lever to activate the lock. In most cases, two to four casters must be locked one after the other. This takes an enormous amount of time and reduces efficiency. The loss of time quickly leads to increased stress to make up for lost time. Increased stress, in turn, can quickly lead to carelessness errors, where, for example, casters that still need to be locked are overlooked or forgotten. This can lead to a strong risk factor for the nursing staff and the patients.

How does the central locking system work?

The central locking system blocks several casters simultaneously and thus effectively secures the means of transport against rolling away or slipping. Unlike individual locking, this system is connected to at least two casters and can also be activated directly on all casters.

Which areas need a central locking system?

This type of locking system is useful for all areas of application in which equipment has to be constantly moved and parked again. Central locking is particularly recommended in the hospital sector, as hospital staff need to move hospital beds and medical equipment from one area to the next. But central locking is also highly recommended in the industrial sector, as it can greatly reduce the ergonomic strain on personnel here as well.

When is central locking recommended?

Overall, central locking is recommended wherever it is necessary to ensure the secure position of the equipment. At the same time, a fast, simple and reliable operation process is given.
