Lista has announced that its workbench system is suitable for use in dental and orthodontic laboratories.
According to James Anderson, the company's vertical market and national accounts manager for laboratories, the cabinets have the strength, quality, weight capacity and simple drawer operation required by dental laboratories.
The systems come with a lifetime warranty.
The typical dental technician workbench measures 4 x 2ft but the benches also come in 5ft and 6ft sizes.
They are offered in both single- and double-sided configurations to support workflow preferences and space requirements.
They can also be ordered with mobile casters to facilitate repositioning.
Work surface depths are available in 2in increments from 24in to 36in.
Work surface lengths come in five sizes, ranging from 30in to 72in.
Lista's integrated downdraft suction system is available in all bench sizes and is incorporated right into the bench.
The bench-top systems are said to be ergonomically friendly, allowing each laboratory technician to set the height of the work surface to meet individual needs, from a height of 28in to 34in.
Work pan shelves can be adjusted vertically in 3in increments and the tilt can be changed from flat to 15deg or 30deg.
A four-bulb light provides 147 lumens at the work surface and the company can supply colour-corrected lighting.
The light's height can be adjusted to meet individual needs and lights can be tilted 5deg.
An electrical strip on each bench provides eight outlets per bench.
Lista's dental workbenches come with multiple drawer options and doors are equipped with heavy-duty hinges.
Work surface materials include a range of laminates, stainless steel, Trespa/resin, Corian or butcher block.
Field representatives are available to visit laboratories and make an evaluation of specific features and appropriate configurations.
