The Erler Zimmer "Skeleton Otto with Ligament Apparatus" is a life-sized, articulating model casting from an actual human skeleton, offering an incredibly detailed overview of skeletal structures and joint ligaments. The meticulous recreation includes individually crafted bones assembled to demonstrate the complexities of the human body. A standout feature of "Skeleton Otto" is its flexible joints on one side of the model, including the shoulder, knee, elbow, and hip, equipped with lifelike ligament bands. This unique design allows for the demonstration of natural movement patterns through sliding and traction movements within the joints, providing an exceptional tool for explaining their functions in a visually engaging manner. The skeleton also features a three-part skull, which adheres to standard anatomical integrity, outfitted with metal pins and magnets, eliminating the need for unsightly closure hooks and preventing gaps between the cranial vault, base of the skull, and jaw. The skull incorporates pivotal structures, from fissures and foramen to processes, offering comprehensive insight into cranial anatomy. Supported by a five-star safety castor stand, "Skeleton Otto" is effortlessly mobile while maintaining the necessary stability.
