Custom Consoles introduces Module-R Lite compact control desk

Custom Consoles introduces Module-R Lite compact control desk 11 Jul 2013

Custom Consoles announces a new addition to its Module-R range of control room furniture. Module-R Lite is designed for use in production suites with limited space, or in large facilities requiring multiple rows of desks.

The 1200 millimetre front-to-back depth of a standard Module-R desk allows easy embedding of control surfaces such as vision switchers or audio mixers, comments Custom Consoles Sales Manager Gary Fuller. Module-R Lite has a front-to-back depth of 875 millimetres which is quite sufficient for production staff working in support-services such as graphics and editing. The option of fitting monitor display screens above the rear edge of Module-R Lite desks makes even more efficient use of space. Module-R Lite is available with the same wide range of matching equipment pods and storage modules as Module-R, with correspondingly adjusted front-to-back dimensions if required.

Custom Consoles will promote Module-R and Module-R Lite on its IBC2013 stand, 3.A54, at the Amsterdam RAI Centre in September. Both product ranges enable customers and systems-integrators to create robust, efficient and attractive control-room desks from a selection of standard interlocking elements. These include high-quality single-bay, dual-bay and triple-bay desk sections with front or rear access, work surfaces in matching widths, corner desk sections in 90 degree, 45 degree or 30 degree angles with integral worktops, slide-out keyboard drawers, equipment pods with 3U, 6U or 8U capacity, 19 in storage pedestals and 27U equipment bays.

Module-R and Module-R Lite desks incorporate steel-and-aluminium vertical supports with internal cable ducts. Resting on a broad load-bearing skid, the legs provide high strength and stability, protect studio carpet and allow easy relocation if required during technical rebuilds. The desks and matching support furniture are as available in a wide range of finishes. Cabinet construction is in veneered MDF with continuous brush-strip edging and easy cable access.

Founded in 1996, Custom Consoles Ltd (www.customconsoles.co.uk) is an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer of project-specific and modular broadcast, process-control and security furniture. The product range includes motorised, manually-adjustable and fixed-height units plus fan-cooled sound-insulated equipment housings. Custom Consoles operates from a 1200 square metre UK-based production facility equipped with 3D computer-aided-design and computer-controlled cutting machinery. This provides the dual benefits of precise quality control and prompt delivery times, typically 21 days from receipt of order. The companys clients include broadcasters, production and post-production studios, governmental and corporate organisations in Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Australasia.

Custom Consoles will be represented at IBC2013 by Neil Reed (Managing Director), Graham Buchanan (Commercial Director) and Gary Fuller (Sales Manager).
