What Types Of Adjustable Workstations and Tables Do We Offer?

RDM Ergonomic Adjustable Workstation – Model RDM-i-107P-BOOM

We offer a whole slew of tables and workstations with many different adjustability options that add to its capabilities. At RDM we have tables that are specially designed for drafting and other types of engineering work. They come ready with the features needed to be productive in those specialized working environments. We also allow you to customize your adjustable workstations and tables with options such as height adjustability, a tilting top, or even a backlit surface. All of these table types have their use cases, and we can help you pick out the stations that best fit your line of work.

For Drafting & Engineering Tables – Tilt-Top Surfaces Are Key!

Drafting Tables

Drafting tables are the ideal workstations if you need a place to make accurate blueprints or draft up a sketch or two. Most drafting tables have a perfectly flat drawing surface with a tilt-top design. Tilt-top tables allow you to get into a more ergonomic drawing position, which will increase comfort and reduce the risk of injuries. Having a tilt-top drafting table also allows many drafters to use the same workstation, as they can all adjust it to their preferred drawing angle.

We also offer a form of drafting table called a light table. Light tables come with a backlit surface that illuminates everything that is placed onto the working surface. The backlighting helps to highlight small details in drafts or blueprints, which will cut down on your worker’s eye strain as they are drawing or drafting. Backlighting also allows for easy transfers of information from one project to another. Especially if you make use of any tracing medium. Most light tables light up the entire drafting surface, but we also offer models that allow you to customize the drafting surface that is illuminated.

When it comes to outfitting your workspace with drafting & engineering tables – tilt-top surfaces with varied light options are key factors to consider.

Engineering Tables

Our engineering tables are similar to our drafting stations, but they are more focused on practicality. Engineering tables usually have added drawers for storage. They often have shelve or racks mounted above the working surface too. Some engineering stations have tilting tops, like our drafting stations. But the tilting surface is much smaller than what you will find on the drawing-focused counterpart. At RDM, we allow you to customize nearly every aspect of your tilt-top tables. That includes using multiple materials for the different work surfaces.

Another key difference for engineering workstations is that they typically don’t use a backlight for illumination. Most of our engineering stations can be outfitted with an overhead lighting setup that allows for a brighter working environment. Overhead lighting is preferable for engineering work, as you will most likely need to illuminate more than just documents on the table.

Workbenches

RDM Workbenches are the ideal workstation if you need a rigid working environment that you don’t plan on moving often. Workbenches are typically larger than our drafting and engineering stations, which makes them ideal for group projects. They can be outfitted with all sorts of storage like drawers and shelves to help increase the practicality of your workplace.

Customizability of Your Adjustable Workstations

One of the best reasons to work with RDM for all your industrial furniture needs is that we use a factory-direct approach. This allows you to easily customize any equipment we offer to better fit your working environment. Two of the biggest factors to consider when customizing your industrial equipment is if you want it to be mobile, and how many people will be using it.

Mobility:

Adding mobility to your equipment is easy and cost-effective. We use industrial-grade casters to add mobility to the furniture we offer. Adding mobility allows you to move your equipment from one working space to another with little to no hassle.

Height Adjustability:

Having the option of height adjustability is a great option to consider. Especially if you are planning on ordering a shared station. This will allow all of your workers to be as comfortable as possible, no matter how tall or short they are. Having an adjustable height station allows you to change the use of the station depending on what you need at the time. Some workers may prefer a sitting station, while others may swear by the health benefits of a standing station. An adjustable station allows you to appease both types of workers.

Work Surface Options:

One of the biggest ways we allow you to customize your equipment, is by allowing you to choose what kind of work surface your equipment will be outfitted with. Some of our most popular options include plastic laminate, chemical resistant, ESD / static-control, solid surface, solid wood, and stainless steel. Our team of experts can help you decide which of these work surfaces best fits your line of work. Some of our stations can even be had with multiple different surface materials. This is ideal if you are looking for a station that will serve many different functions in your workplace.

They can help you with every aspect of picking out your quality-designed industrial workplace furniture. They can even help you design any industrial furniture you may need with custom dimensions.

Rather than buying tons of lab equipment of all different kinds, heights and sizes. Getting height adjustable workstations and other adjustable lab furniture can give you the versatility you need and help save you some money. RDM Industrial Products custom-designs a wide range of versatile adjustable workstation solutions and ergonomic laboratory furniture to meet your needs. And all of our products are proudly manufactured in the USA.

Let’s have a look at some of our height adjustable workstations and other ergonomic furniture categories, to give you a taste of what we have to offer.

Adjustable Workstations & Tables

RDM Lift Table – Model RDM-ES-107P-SSTOP-CSTR-01

A lab table, workbench or workstation is every scientist’s and lab worker’s bread and butter. It’s where virtually all the important work is done and where nearly every major tool or chemical is handled. It’s therefore crucial to get these made right.

Thankfully, we have an enormous amount of different models to choose from here – large and small, square and rectangular, L-shaped and i-framed, with racks or shelves and without. We even have models that come with platform lifts to bring researchers up above their workstations to the appropriate degrees.

The major adjustable feature for most of these models, however, is height. By means of anything from a manual hand crank, to adjustable legs with pins, to an electric crank. You can toggle and play with the height of our workbenches until they’re at the optimal height to allow you to do your best work. We can even install a hydraulic lift into certain special and multipurpose models like the A-107P, the LA-107P and the P-107P-HYD Ergonomic Workstation. Any of these options are open to you because all of our models are manufacturer-direct and custom-designed.

Lastly, we manufacture a series of different light tables to help illuminate your lab work. Adjustability here pertains to the lift, height and tilt of the table surface.

Have a look at all of our many adjustable workstations, tables and workbenches here.

Ergonomic Chairs

Every quality adjustable workstation, should have a corresponding ergonomic chair. Chairs are a simple, but critical piece of lab furniture. A good chair can mean the difference for a lab researcher between sitting for hours, hunched and cramped in discomfort and misery and having a breezy and efficient day at work.

To keep things humming along and your staff comfortable, we manufacture a variety of different ergonomic X-chairs and stools with adjustable seating heights, frames and arm rests. These fall into three main series:

• The Standard Series: The chairs in this series are ordinary but comfortable chairs with small back rests, tube steel bases, adjustable heights and foot rings. They are ideal for high work surfaces that measure 34 inches or more off the ground.

• The Pro-Duty Series: The chairs here have seats and back rests that are similar to those in the Standard Series, but have adjustable arm rests and aluminum bases. Foot rings are optional and may be preferred for higher work surfaces measuring 34 inches or more off the ground. Otherwise, they are good for desks and workbenches that are between 28 and 32 inches high. The chairs are also mobile because they are on wheels.

• The Technical Series: The chairs in this grouping might be the gold standard in ergonomic chairs. Primarily, this is because they have much larger back rests than other models and are built for maximum comfort. They offer more customization options but have many of the same features as Standard and Pro-Duty Series chairs.

Have a glance at all of our ergonomic chairs here.

Carts

Carts are an imperative piece of laboratory and industrial furniture. It’s because they are a great way to quickly transport important tools, supplies and equipment to lab workers in a pinch. A cart can be as simple as a table or a rack on wheels. However, we have all other types of quality-designed models waiting for you. Including ones made of stainless steel, ones with built-in drawers or multiple shelves, and more. They can carry things virtually as high up or as down low as you need, and we even manufacture adjustable-height models for maximum versatility. We have peg boards, roll storage, panel racks, packaging and even large PCB storage carts for sale as well.

You can find all of our various cart models here.

Cabinets

Good, sturdy and reliable cabinets are indispensable to any lab. Laboratories and other industrial spaces often need a place to store potentially dangerous tools or hazardous chemicals. These items need to be kept out of reach when not directly in use, and adjustable cabinets fill the gap. Lab safety would be virtually impossible to guarantee without them. RDM manufactures and sells wooden, stainless steel, chemical-resistant, corrosion-resistant, flame-resistant and/or laminated cabinets. They are all easy to clean and can make great additions to your lab.

But even with this humble, simple and unassuming piece of laboratory furniture, RDM gives you the option to make adjustments. The primary adjustment open to you in this case is in the number of shelves to be found in each unit. Though doors and their specific features can also sometimes be adjusted. For instance, you can buy units with either swinging or sliding doors, and each door of this type can be made out of either metal or glass. Of course, you can also choose to have no doors at all.

Oh, and let’s not forget about making them mobile. Your carts can be equipped with industrial-duty casters with locking wheel & pivot capabilities. Of course we have other wheel/caster styles available too. Just let us know what you need.

Our units also come in an impressive range of sizes. Including, those that are small and easily hung on a wall to those that are tall and meant for more heavy-duty storage. Since everything we make is factory-direct and can be designed to your specifications, you can tailor every purchase to the specific conditions in your lab.

Conclusion

Ergonomic furniture isn’t just an optional luxury that you can either make part of your lab or not. After all, worker comfort doesn’t operate in a vacuum; it can have critical effects on productivity and efficiency, too. But beyond its benefits for staff comfort – adjustable workstations whether it be in laboratory furnishings or industrial furniture, has many other advantages as well. Not least of these lies in versatility and adaptability. If you can adjust workstations, chairs, carts and other equipment as things change, then you won’t need to spend as much to keep your lab in good working order.

With RDM’s quality-designed adjustable workstations and ergonomic furniture, you and your team will be ready for anything.

Adjustable desks are equipped with cranks for 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. Electric hydraulic motors are also available to ensure easy, smooth, and quick height adjustments. It’s even possible to program individual height preferences with multiple-position memory switches. This is a useful feature when more than one person is using a power adjustable desk.

There are many benefits to having height adjustable desks. For example, the need for less office furniture and improved worker health and ergonomics. They also improve efficiency and adaptability to accommodate diverse work environments.

A Requirement for Fewer Desks

Today, many workplaces increasingly encourage “hot desking”, which is when employees move freely from desk to desk. However, not all employees have the same body type. For this reason, hot-desking requires flexible furniture options to accommodate the different needs of employees. An adjustable height computer desk provides a convenient solution. These types of desks can easily lower or raise according to the height and ergonomic needs of the employee. This way, many employees can share the same adjustable desk. With a need for fewer desks, workplaces can save money and make better use of space.  

Health and Ergonomic Benefits of a Height Adjustable Desk

Adjustable workstations also provide health and ergonomic benefits. For example, some employees don’t have the flexibility to get away from their workstations every hour. An adjustable height computer desk allows for more variation in body position. This can help prevent stiff, tired, or painful muscles and joints. An adjustable height feature can also provide a more comfortable workplace. For example, whether your employees are short or tall, they can adjust the table to their individual comfort level.

Adjustable height computer desks also help to reduce strains and injuries. Common injuries include backaches, wrist problems, and neck pain. Adjustable desks can sometimes benefit workers who have existing back problems since standing for part of the day can offer relief and aid recovery. Each employee has a distinct body shape and it’s important to accommodate these needs. For example, if a tall person is working at a shorter desk, they will have to bend over which can lead to back problems.

Functionality and Adaptability to Different Workplaces

From private offices to laboratories, to industrial workplaces, adjustable standing desks can easily adapt to almost any workplace. The ability to adapt and add custom features to the tables can help improve workplace efficiency. When ordered from RDM Industrial Products, these factory direct and industrial quality adjustable tables can be customized to nearly any configuration. For example, an optional lower shelf can create a convenient storage area for a microscope or other equipment. Also, a dual-platform style is great for laboratory environments when there is a need to regularly work on two tasks simultaneously.

The weight capacity of an adjustable standing desk, or a power adjustable desk, can range from 500 pounds all the way up to 3,000 pounds. Adjustable desks are also available with wheels for added mobility. Once moved into place, the desk wheels can be securely locked down, for static use. Best of all, an adjustable height feature is available on almost every type of industrial table. Examples include heavy-duty stainless steel lift tables and height adjustable light tables. Other examples are adjustable laboratory tables, such as ergonomic microscope tables with vibration-damping levelers. 

When ordering your manufacturer direct, industrial quality adjustable standing desk from RDM, there is almost no limit to the customization options available.
