Stands and Construction
The Stands for presses where first provided in the late 1980’s . The first customers to require castors where schools. They wanted the the ability to move the press from classroom to classroom. They had the space to accomodate this. Another useful option was to be able to move the press into a cupboard and into a secure place. Castors have the benefit of Taper roller bearings and this level of quality makes it very easy to move the press into any position.The castors used are rubber non marking and are the swivel and brake type. The castor size is 100mm for easy manoveuvrability.
Stands for larger presses have a footprint similar to the press footprint but remain very stable with the press fitted. This is a desirable aspect where space is limited. Stands for smaller presses have to have a viable footprint for safety, so they have a footprint larger than the press footprint.This prevents the top heavy structure from tipping over.The base of the stand can accomodate a shelf without fixings. Also to fully utilise the space under the press supports rails for a shelf can be added. We have in the past also provided underslung Drying Racks. These where usually 4 tier, each tier has an area 45cm x 60cm and they slid in and out on guides.
As mentioned above I can provide a bed height to suit your needs . I have supplied presses on stands for artists in wheelchairs.
