GTV 2.0

Ergonomic workplace design

The “GTV” series sets an exclamation mark in the ergonomic design of workplaces.

The requirement of the Machinery Directive for adaptation of the human/machine interface (HMI) to the foreseeable physical characteristics of the operating staff means that there are more and more calls for ergonomically designed machine workplaces.

The GTV’s highlights include:

• A design which causes the system to automatically remain in a stable
  position when the operator lets go of it and
• A lockable type for applications in which a downward force acts during operation (example: control-panel type), and in which the system remains in a stable position when the switch is tripped.

A large load range, fine adjustment of which can be performed by the user on the machine, a generously dimensioned cable gland, which is located away from moving parts and thus effectively protects the cables installed, and elegant styling are only a few of the interesting properties of the new GTV height-adjustment system.
