Mechanical operation

With extra power for easy movement of several shelf units at one time, mechanical drive is the ideal solution for medium to heavy loads up to a maximum of 5 tonnes (larger loads can be accommodated with design consultation – see our recent project at the Art Gallery of NSW). Using our standard gearing ratios of 1:1500 or 1:3000 to the shelf load, it is possible to move several heavily laden shelf units effortlessly. Units incorporate an anti tilt mechanism and can be operated by hand-wheel or a steering wheel, both equipped with ergonomically shaped knobs that are designed to be modernly aesthetic and timelessly elegant. The sturdy black matt surfacing withstands all solvents, oil and other chemical liquids.

Accident Prevention

Moveable systems present a risk of accident. With the new Baylock system, Bosco offers you a mobile shelving system that only moves when you want it to. This safety locking mechansim is located in the centre of the hand wheel, which makes is possible to disengage the turning mechanism when not in use. The red indication ring shows whether the mobile shelving system is locked in posistion and can be used safely. This safety feature can be expanded with a central locking system that guarantees only authourised personnel have access to the shelving system or bay.
