A “continuous passive motion” (CPM) machine is a motorised device that moves a joint (in this case the knee) through a controlled range of motion, without effort from the patient’s muscles. It’s typically used after surgery (e.g., total knee replacement, ligament repair) or significant trauma to maintain or improve range of motion (ROM), reduce stiffness, and promote healing. 
Benefits can include:

• Controlled, repeatable movement of the knee joint—extension to flexion and back.  

• Prevention of adhesions and stiffness by passive motion. 

• Some evidence of improved joint fluid circulation and cartilage healing. 

• However there’s also some debate about how much long-term benefit they provide compared to manual therapy and active muscle mobilisation. As one user put it:

“My Dr says CPM HAS FALLEN OUT of favour … most don’t use it any more … like 10 years…” 

🔍 What I found re: Technomed / Technomed Electronics

• There is a listing on a hospital-store site: “Technomed TECH CPM Machine or “Technomed Electronics TECH CPM CPM machine”. The listing says:

  • Brand: Technomed / Technomed Electronics

  • Model code: HS19201

  • Features: digital control of flexion/extension angles; angle indicator; smooth & silent motor; height adjustment; patient safety switch; speed control; digital system. 

  • Material: mild steel; weight ~15 kg; usage hospital. The corporate site for Technomed Devices India Pvt Ltd is listed, but their product catalogue did not show clearly a knee-CPM machine under their “devices” section (or at least I did not locate it).

  • Because of this, if you want a Technomed-branded knee CPM machine, you’ll need to check with the company or an authorised dealer for confirmation of model specs, warranty, service, and after-sales support.
