Forced Running Wheels are designed for controlled exercise studies and for sleep deprivation applications. We provide standard wheels with 250mm diameter for rats (80mm depth) and 115mm diameter for mice (40mm depth). For larger rats special drums with 160mm depth are available. When used in sleep deprivation studies the front lids can be equipped with an integrated holder to fix a drinking bottle and a food trough.

For testing fine motor skills and motor learning the wheel drum can be equipped with easily removable rods to change the rod pattern between sessions. If camera observation is required during the test the front of the wheel is made from clear material so that paw usage of the animal is easily visible.

All wheels are equipped with an electronically-controlled motor that guarantees reliable and consistent speed that is adjustable up to 60rpm. If only constant speed is required throughout the experiment the manually operated wheel is a cost-effective solution. Speed and rotation direction are set manually for each wheel, the current speed is shown on an integrated display on the motor control.

Special Requirements: Medical equipment often has specific needs, such as temperature control or shock absorption. For example, certain medications must remain at a specific temperature throughout the supply chain. This may require insulated containers, refrigerated vehicles, and specialized warehousing.
Custom Packaging: Custom packaging solutions are essential for medical equipment. A professional crating company can provide protective packaging tailored to the unique requirements of each product. This can include foam packaging die-cut to the exact shape needed for the product.
Reusable Packaging: For regular shipments, reusable packaging can be a cost-effective and environmentally friendly option. These crates can be assembled and disassembled without tools and can be fully customized.
International Shipping: When shipping internationally, it's important to be aware of customs regulations. Failure to comply can result in delays, returns, or fines. Professional shipping companies can help obtain the necessary permits and documentation.
Insurance and Tracking: Given the high cost and critical nature of medical equipment, insurance is essential. Tracking can also provide peace of mind and help prevent loss.
