Adjustable Tables Provide Convenience Without Sacrificing Quality

Posted on May 13, 2013 by admin

Employees who work at fixed-height tables must adjust their seats to accommodate the height of the tabletops. Adjustable tables make seat adjustment unnecessary because the tabletop manually or automatically adjusts to the desired height. These tables are ideal for environments requiring both seated and standing work or when ADA accommodation is necessary.

The Science Behind Adjustable Tables

Adjustable height tables are also called lift tables because their worktops lift up to accommodate their users. Many styles are available including those with ergonomic features that make work more comfortable. Industrial tables designed for light, standard, or heavy duty use offer the adjustable height feature, making this furniture suitable for factory, laboratory, and cleanroom environments.

Tables equipped with cranks enable manual height adjustment. Simply turn the crank in one direction to raise the height and turn it in the other direction to lower the height. Tables featuring electric motors offer automatic height adjustment and some versions have multiple-position memory switches that can be programmed with the height preferences of individual users.

Increasing the Functionality of Adjustable Industrial Tables

When ordered from RDM Industrial Products, these tables can be customized to nearly any configuration. An optional lower shelf creates a convenient storage area for a microscope or other equipment. A dual platform style is ideal for laboratory environments where working on two tasks simultaneously is a regular occurrence. Overhead accessory booms are available for adjustable height tables, creating packaging workstations.

There is almost no limit to the customization options available for adjustable tables. Customers even have their choice of work surfaces ranging from laminate, to butcher block, to static control. Design options allow customers to get everything they want in a table featuring an adjustable height without sacrificing on quality. Accessories are available separately so if they omit any from their initial order, customers can request them whenever needed.

Choosing the Best Stainless Steel Table for Your Facility

Posted on April 12, 2013 by admin

When purchasing industrial furnishings, it is important to select the correct product for the workplace. Though high-quality material is used to make this furniture, certain materials more suitable for particular uses and environments. A stainless steel table is a popular industrial furnishing manufactured to handle nearly any environment but different versions are designed for different purposes.

Stainless Steel Industrial Tables for Different Work Areas

Executives need room to store documents and supplies in their offices. For them, stainless steel executive desks are smart choices. These desks feature adjustable heights compatible with seated or standing work. For use in computer server rooms, technology executives may prefer rolling stainless steel tech tables featuring optional keyboard trays.

Several stainless steel table designs are intended for laboratory environments and some are designed for cleanroom atmospheres. Available in assorted heights and with options such as drawers and pull-out keyboard trays, these tables are versatile. A stainless steel lift table is another lab-friendly furnishing because it brings the work closer to the technician, making delicate operations more convenient.

Food Service Industrial Tables

Several tables made from stainless steel are designed for food service environments. These range from a basic light to medium duty ergonomic table with adjustable height to a customizable workstation featuring drawers and shelving. Optional accessories include cutting mat surfaces, stainless steel vise units, and a deluxe adjustable foot rest for seated work.

This is just a sampling of the stainless steel table options available. When they order from RDM Industrial Products, customers customize these tables to meet their space and functional needs. The result is a table that fits within the work area and is equipped with all the accessories necessary for the desired use. This furniture is built to last, making this a one-time investment when the correct style and accessories are selected.

Making Old Work Benches New Again

Posted on March 12, 2013 by admin

Industrial furniture is a substantial investment for many companies. When shopping for work benches and other furnishings for a facility, purchasing managers look for versions that are sturdy and will last for years. However, consistently heavy use can take its toll on this furniture. Fortunately, there are ways to restore an existing table to its original condition.

Replacement Tops for Industrial Tables

Customers of RDM Industrial Products have the option to purchase replacement tops for their work tables. This purchase can be made either when the initial order is placed or later. A variety of surface options are available including chemical-resistant or static dissipative plastic laminate, cleanroom, and butcher block. There is even a replacement transfer top featuring both fixed insert rollers and a pneumatic pop-up ball system.

Shoppers can view a graphical depiction and product summary on the RDM website. If they are purchasing a transfer top, customers select their transfer preference and provide the height, depth, width, and weight of their product. The online form can be used to request a price quote or place an order for a customized replacement top.

Seating Makes Work Benches More Versatile

Tops are not the only components that may suffer wear. Industrial chairs are used regularly, some used by multiple workers in a single day. Replacement chairs are available in ergonomic designs with sturdy steel or cast aluminum bases. An upholstered, contoured backrest containing a lumbar curve and compact armrests are two options of a deluxe version designed for long-term use.

After making an initial investment in industrial work benches, purchasing managers will be pleased to realize that even rough treatment will not render this furniture unusable. Replacement tops and seating make facility workbenches look and operate like new even after years of heavy use. Businesses can remain productive without overspending on workplace furniture.

Fascinating Features of Stainless Steel Tables And Carts

Posted on February 18, 2013 by admin

When we think of industrial furnishings like stainless steel tables and carts, “fascinating” is not usually the first word that comes to mind. However, these industrial workbenches and mobile units do have some remarkable aspects. Take a few moments to review the various features to determine whether one of these furnishings would be useful in your facility.

Standard RDM Stainless Tables and Carts

Available finishes include #4 brushed, 2B smooth, and a special electropolished finish designed for a cleanroom. Whether these tables will be used in a lab, cleanroom, medical facility, or general industrial environment, they are built to last.

With the addition of rolling casters, tables can be made into carts, making it easy to transport products, equipment, and other items. These stainless steel carts feature a work surface and sometimes have multiple shelves or an area enclosed by drawers. Other optional features include retaining curbs, pull-out trays, cabinets and much more. What they all have in common is the convenience provided by mobility. Workers can push or pull these carts throughout a facility, delivering items as needed.

Getting Specialized Tables and Carts

Some stainless steel industrial workbenches are designed for special purposes. Heavy-duty versions are able to support large microscopes that cause other surfaces to sag and eventually buckle. A table featuring a vice unit is ideal for use within the food or beverage industry or as a standard cleanroom fixture. Some carts are intended to store tools and others are designed to handle special materials.

These are just a few interesting features of RDM stainless steel tables and carts designed for industrial, medical, laboratory, and other environments.

Custom Manufacturing of Oversized Industrial Tables

Posted on January 30, 2013 by admin

Customers who require oversized industrial tables for their facilities often have trouble finding these units when looking at typical furniture retailers. The fact that they require an oversized table means they need a customized product that many industrial furniture retailers do not provide. RDM Industrial Products custom manufactures its industrial furniture, enabling you to personalize industrial table dimensions and features.

Large Tables with Custom Features

The largest tables feature center legs to provide additional support but customization options do not end with the size of the table. Customers can request integrated lift systems, shelving, various types of work surfaces, and even partitions that provide privacy to keep workers focused or for hanging tools. Casters are available to make these tables mobile so the facility floor can be reconfigured easily whenever necessary.

There are even manual or automatic adjustable height tables. Some of these larger tables feature dual-stage lift systems that provide extra height lifting range. Adding an overhead boom with task lighting makes it easier for workers to see what they are doing. Even the lighting is customizable to create an optimal work environment. Several light fixtures suspended over a large work surface provides an even illumination over the entire area below.

Customers can convert a single table into a two-person workstation by requesting a special configuration. Two tables will face each other, with a separate lighting boom over each, or can have a single shared overhead light boom. Shelving, storage drawers, computer monitor stands, and keyboard trays can be added to adapt the table for use by two workers who may be collaborating on a project.

This is just the beginning of the customization options that are available for these oversized industrial tables. Review the different configurations, features, and optional accessories and use these options to create large industrial workbenches for different areas of your facility. If you have the space available, and adequate delivery clearance, RDM can build an industrial table to fit your exact needs. Their helpful and courteous representatives are available to answer questions and provide advice whenever needed.
