More Comfort with Shock-absorbing Depth Spring Action
Gas spring systems from Stabilus allow innovative swivel chair solutions
Koblenz, April 2009. – Locking gas springs are indispensable for designing ergonomic functions into office swivel chairs. Stabilus, a manufacturer with a long tradition, is a premium supplier in this market. At this year’s INTERZUM, it will present its locking gas springs STAB-O-MAT, STAB-O-BLOC and BLOC-O-LIFT for the variable adjustment of seats and backrests. Special focus will be on the selection of depth spring action systems for more seating comfort, and on an expanded line of actuation systems for enhanced handling flexibility.
Experiencing the effect in the dark
The focus of Stabilus’ presentation at this year’s INTERZUM will be on shock-absorbing systems that provide top comfort over the entire adjustment range and especially in the lowest seat position. Stabilus offers a broad range of options for this purpose. Visitors of booth G010/H011 (hall 5.2) will be able to experience the subtle differences between different shock-absorbing systems in a darkened showroom. They will be trying out twisting columns with integrated depth spring action, comfortable bounce or additional shock absorption in the lowest seat position. They differ with regard to design, price-performance ratio, and comfort level. Another focus at the Stabilus booth will be on the gas springs of the BLOC-O-LIFT line. They are considered the ideal solution for variable adjustment of backrest and seat position.
Moving up with a joystick
The numerous actuation systems offered by Stabilus will also be presented at INTERZUM. For the height adjustment of the STAB-O-MAT or the STAB-O-BLOC alone, swivel chair manufacturers have a choice of standard axial actuation, actuation by valve pin, or radial actuation by joystick, as well as axial and radial Bowden cable actuation (fixed or rotating).
At Stabilus, manufacturers of swivel chairs will always find the right solution for their design ideas. At the same time, they can be assured that all Stabilus gas springs are high-quality products developed for a long service life. They are manufactured according to DIN EN ISO 9001 and global standard ISO/TS 16949.
