Finding the perfect solution for any customer is something that BUILT Systems takes stride in. So when a customer needed to find the perfect workstation for their facility, the team jumped at the opportunity to help. This ESD Workstation combines aspects of our machine base series, workbench series, and material handling series all in one product. The modularity of this product along with the customizable light frame allows this product to be very versatile, and we at BUILT are proud to display it.

The Problem

This customer wanted a large, semi-mobile workstation that was able to have adjustable flow racks on each side for all the sub-components needed in the assembly of their product.

The Criteria

This workstation needed to be height adjustable, ESD compliant (paint and work surface), and needed to have adjustable flow racks on each side of the work center. This user also needed a location to mount several torque gun controllers and pneumatic controls for testing the assembly once complete.

Brainstorming and Design

With this being a rather large, modular design, it was important to create a structure that was strong enough to support the load of the station itself, as well as the materials that would be placed on it. One main issue was the overall height of the station exceeded the door height of all standard shipping trucks, so the system needed to “collapse” to fit into the shipping container. Another required addition was a custom colored ESD paint. This paint allowed the whole frame to be grounded and dissipate any static electricity created from the sub-components of the assembly.

This was one of the first workstations that integrated adjustable flow racks (with rollers). This design feature required a way to easily adjust the height of the racks. It also made them lightweight enough to adjust them without the use of heavy machinery. This end-user has multiple variations of their final product that require different sized components. The ability to use/order 1 station to fit multiple assembly lines made the process easy for the end-user.

Providing solutions like this for any customer is something that BUILT Systems prides itself on. The team is always excited to collaborate to come up with products that meet the needs of the end-user. In this case, because of the modular design and the customizability of the lightbar covers on the ESD workstation, the end-user ordered almost a dozen workstations, many of them with different text on the cover indicating the location of the assembly.
