Applications

Personal electronics
Precision-engineered position control devices are essential for user convenience in everything from display screens to speakers, to mobile phones and PDA devices. Compact built-in bi-stable devices hold covers down for carrying, then pop them up and hold them open for easy access during use.

Sample Applications

View Applications

Industrial applications
The increased popularity of cart-mounted medical diagnostic equipment benefits from position control hinges and lift-assist devices that permit operators to adjust display screens from any position around a patient’s bed, or help nurses and technicians to position heavier equipment with one hand.
Furniture and appliance OEMs
Cabinet doors, mirrors, lighting units, storage units, and home-entertainment systems. Self-service store environments can take advantage of applications ranging from slow closing hinges for storage bin covers to devices that can stand up to heavy user interaction on touchscreen POS display terminals.
Automotive applications
From positioning GPS and DVD display screens, to closure doors on center consoles, glove boxes, and storage compartments, to passenger convenience items like headrests, armrests, and cup holders. These applications include hinges that deploy easily, but then provide resistance to remain steady despite forces from bumps, acceleration, or braking.
