🛠️ Behind the Scenes: How Is the Cosmos Pilates Basic Reformer Made?

At first glance, Pilates equipment might appear to be just a combination of springs, rails, and wooden parts. But when you step behind the curtain, you’ll find that every Reformer, Chair, or Cadillac is backed by precision engineering, design rooted in human anatomy, and years of accumulated know-how.

In this article, we open the doors to our workshop and walk you through the production process of a Pilates machine—from scratch to studio—step by step.

1. Design Begins with User Experience

The development of the Reformer starts with analyzing feedback from instructors, physiotherapists, and users. Are there difficulties in certain movements? Do home users struggle with changing the springs? With answers to these kinds of questions, the equipment’s ergonomics and functionality are optimized.

2. Material Selection: A Balance of Beauty and Durability

The body of the Cosmos Reformer is crafted from premium solid beech wood. This wood offers both durability and an aesthetic appearance. Timber that has been dried for over 15 years eliminates the risk of warping or bending, ensuring long-lasting performance. The upholstery is covered with a non-slip, antibacterial leather, providing a hygienic, comfortable, and easy-to-clean surface.

3. Precision Mechanics: CNC + Handcrafting

The carriage system glides smoothly and silently on 8 wheels. Metal and wooden parts are precisely cut using CNC machines and then assembled by skilled technicians. The spring system is adjustable to 5 different resistance levels, allowing each user to work at their own pace. The gearbar can be set to 3 different positions, supporting a variety of exercises.

4. Personalized Fit and Comfort

The footbar system can be adjusted to 4 different angles, offering users a comfortable workout experience in various positions. The headrest is adjustable to 3 levels, and neck-head support is customizable. Additionally, a 3-level stopper system allows for fine-tuned adjustments during exercise.

5. Enhanced Pulley System

The pulley system of the Cosmos Reformer is optimized to provide quieter and smoother operation. This detail enhances its suitability for professional use while also offering home users a peaceful exercise environment.

Conclusion

The Cosmos Pilates Basic Reformer is more than just a piece of exercise equipment—it’s a fitness system that offers personal comfort, durability, and functionality. Every detail is designed with both professional use and individual experience in mind.

When choosing a Reformer, don’t just look at how it looks—consider how it’s made. Because a good piece of equipment moves with you.
