Rock Steady RS-231 Short Heavy-Duty Stand

In response to customer suggestions, Brunson has re-engineered the company’s heavy-duty stand line—the new Rock Steady^TM line (patent pending) of metrology stands features:

• NEW: Large, dual wheel, 5” casters improve mobility—the Rock Steady will roll unimpeded over most thresholds, power cords, floor tracks and uneven surfaces.
• NEW: 'hidden trivets’ are designed to nest in a recessed position between the dual-wheel casters, effectively eliminating a source of potential floor contact and damage.
• NEW: the trivets now feature tool-less precision leveling adjusters.
• NEW: claw-foot tribrach base.
• Re-designed and simplified foot-pedal operation.

The innovative re-design of the Rock Steady stand series required rigorous testing, ensuring the new stands support the tight-tolerance measurement requirements of the worlds’ metrologists. Dynamic product testing included:

• Stability tests for deflection, with the Rock Steady line withstanding significant moment loads from portable CMM arms.
• Crash-testing to ensure instrument protection and worker safety.
• Instrument testing with a wide variety of laser trackers, measuring the stands’ ability to suppress the effects of instrument vibration upon metrology processes
• Cycle testing to ensure durability over the long-term.

The Rock Steady line of stands has retained popular features as well:

• Best-in-class metrology stability
• Air-cushioned telescoping tube protects critical instruments
• Extreme durability
• Unmatched product quality.

Product compatibility:

• Laser trackers
