Erler-ZimmerOtto Skeleton with Ligaments

The Otto skeleton from Erler-Zimmer is an anatomical full-body skeleton with a complete ligament apparatus. At the large joints, elastic joint ligaments show how bones are held together and guided, which makes the model particularly interesting for the study of joints. Like all skeletons in this range, it is a detailed cast of a natural skeleton.

The anatomical skeleton is used in the training of physiotherapists, in practice and in medical teaching. The ligament apparatus makes it easy to explain directions of movement and the function of the joints. The life-size model stands on a roller stand and is easy to move.

• complete ligament apparatus at the large joints
• detailed cast of a natural skeleton made of robust plastic
• fissures, foramina and processus depicted true to life
• hands and feet flexibly mounted on wire
• arms, legs and skull removable and partly dismountable
• 5-point roller stand for secure standing
• size with stand 176 cm, weight around 9.5 kg

A skeleton with a ligament apparatus is the right choice when joint guidance and ligaments are the focus. If, on the other hand, the emphasis is on muscles, a model with muscle markings is more suitable. For demonstrations of movement, the range additionally offers versions with a flexible spine.
