Modular architecture
OTTOKIND use one mounting system across all benches, storage and accessories. New accessories fit existing frames, with no adapters and no obsolescence.
HSE compliance
If an HSE inspector has found that manual handling, noise or hand-arm vibration in your workplace is not adequately controlled, the required response is an engineering control. Training courses and PPE will not close the notice.
Height-adjustable workstations and benches are a recognised engineering control for manual handling and hand-arm vibration risk. Modular acoustic enclosures are the standard engineering response to noise above the upper exposure action value of 85 dB(A).
Real results
Three OTTOKIND installations in Germany, from OTTOKIND's own case studies.
Problem: Canon Deutschland moved its service and repair centre into its Krefeld headquarters, and the old benches did not suit the range of repair work.
Solution: 40 electric height-adjustable workstations, each fitted to its department, with ESD mats, monitor arms and glare-free LED lighting.
Problem: Staff at Bösl Medizintechnik in Aachen assembled sensitive medical devices at fixed-height desks that suited neither them nor the work.
Solution: 20 multi4motion ESD workstations with energy bars, swivel arms and storage rails, delivered pre-assembled.
Problem: Staff worked next to fully automated sheet metal machines, and a Plexiglas screen made no difference to the noise.
Solution: A U-shaped OTTOKIND acoustic cabin with a roof and three windows, so staff keep sight of the machines.
