What is Mid-Wheel 6 Technology?

Mid-Wheel 6 Technology refers to a unique power wheelchair configuration that prioritizes both stability and maneuverability by combining a six-wheel layout with an advanced suspension system.

This setup is ideal for riders who want a smooth, stable ride indoors and outdoors — especially over thresholds, inclines, or uneven terrain.

How It Works

Mid-Wheel 6 wheelchairs feature:

• Six total wheels: Two large center drive wheels, plus smaller caster wheels in the front and rear

• Central drive system: The middle wheels are powered and placed directly under the rider’s center of gravity

• Suspension-enhanced support: Front and rear casters work with the suspension to adapt to different surfaces and obstacles

Key Benefits

1. Superior Stability
The six-wheel setup provides exceptional balance. The weight of the rider is evenly distributed, helping the wheelchair remain grounded — even when climbing curbs or navigating ramps.

2. Tight Turning Radius
Because the drive wheels are centered, Mid-Wheel 6 power chairs can turn in place. This makes them ideal for indoor use, especially in small rooms or narrow hallways.

3. Smoother Ride with Active Suspension
In more advanced versions, the system is paired with active suspension, allowing the casters to lift when climbing and drop down when descending. This minimizes jolts and keeps the rider comfortable and stable over thresholds or outdoor terrain.
