Support Arm Systems: the ergonomic link between man & machine

Rittal's new support arm range, in one uniform design, covers all the load ranges up to 180kg. Wide-ranging and modular, with Rittal support arm systems, control panels can be easily and accurately turned, lifted and swivelled, ensuring operators can monitor their machine at any time.

Support Arm Systems: the ergonomic link between man & machine

Nowadays, support arm systems need to be quick to assemble, simple to adjust, suitable for individual installations, designed in a uniform way, capable of bearing high loads and must facilitate cable management. Rittal's support arm system 60/120/180 meets all these requirements in full.

Support arm systems can be created for the 60, 120, and 180kg load levels (relative to a jib length of 1m) with a uniform function, installation and project planning system. The support arm system, consisting of support section, intermediate hinge and angle pieces, can be mounted on top of a machine or on a side panel. Wall and base mountings, as well as flexible top-mounted joints and wall mounted hinges, are available with horizontal outlets for assembly.

To help select the right support arm system, an interactive online configurator ensures rapid engineering, helping to configure the appropriate support arm with minimal effort.
