DESK PROJECT

After our large User Research study concerned with customer usage of our equipment on a manufacturing shop floor we wanted to further explore an opportunity tied to a lack of floor space in a modern factory. For many years Hexagon has shipped an off the shelf, bulky, heavy desk with little thought given to ergonomics and factory fit. The reimagined workstation design includes adjustable height columns and a removable desk arm to accommodate a range of sitting and standing positions for different operator roles, easy-access storage for machine controllers, and monitor arm(s) that allow operators to configure height, tilt, and angle of visual displays to fit their needs. Incorporating workstation lighting provides much-needed illumination to machine bed working areas. The new Hexagon Workstation solution minimizes stress on eyes, neck, and back and provides access to a variety of healthy working postures. This workstation now ships with all CMMs globally and has reduced installation time by 50%.
