Stabilus to present new POWERISE^(R) applications and other innovative solutions for the furniture industry at the interzum furniture trade


 
Luxembourg/Koblenz, May 16, 2017 - Stabilus S.A. (ISIN: LU1066226637) will present its advanced technology and innovations in gas springs, dampers and electro-mechanical drives for motion control at the interzum furniture trade fair, held in Cologne from May 16 - 19.

 

This includes the debut of a POWERISE^(R) electro-mechanical spindle drive in office furniture, namely in the next generation of a table classic, the Confair folding table from Wilkhahn. With the additional help of two gas springs, intuitive, safe and automatic opening and closing of the conference table, which can be up to three meters long, is just child's play. Ultimately, one person can easily set up and take down the table in no time due to the intuitive handling. The electromechanical drive is powered wirelessly by a rechargeable battery. This makes the table even more mobile, allows for space-saving storage and the flexible use of the office space.

 

Another innovation that Stabilus will present at the trade fair is the revolutionary new column technology for office chairs. Thanks to this feature, the same chair can be used as a mobile swivel chair as well as a fixed sit-stand work stool. This so-called sit-stand column will be used for the first time in the BALANCE.CHAIR office chair from Koenig + Neurath (K+N). With just one movement, the user can manually convert the swivel chair into a standing support by adjusting the cantilevered, mobile backrest. The chair column will automatically extend a stopper to the floor, which will stabilize the chair and prevent it from rolling away. Thanks to the technology developed by Stabilus, the chair combines the sitting and standing functions, making it the ideal addition to any sit-stand work space.
