February 2008 - Keyboards remain the input device when it comes to entering information into a computer. Given the widespread use of keyboards in challenging industrial environments, it is essential that they are designed with reliability and durability in mind. To meet these exacting standards, ELMA only uses premium-quality materials in all of its 19" keyboards. The keyboard itself is enclosed in a steel casing, and each stroke of the key is transferred via gold contact points – the best possible basis for a long service life.
The 19" keyboard slides out effortlessly and tilts downward at an 8° angle to ensure perfect ergonomic positioning. This configuration is also recommended by leading medical practitioners: after all, health always comes first!
The keyboards can be accommodated in all standard 19" racks and require an installation height of just 44.45 mm (1 rack unit). The range also includes versions with an integrated touchpad or a 16 mm trackball. Both the touchpad and the perfectly dimensioned trackball have been designed for effortless yet accurate cursor control, even when the device is operated by novice users. The model range includes various country-specific layouts (DE, CH, FR, US, GB) as well as a wide choice of colours for the front panel and keyboard casing. ELMA will even come up with a tailor-made solution for customers with different colour or language specifications.
Challenging applications, robust keyboards, unparalleled reliability and a healthy work environment – ELMA's ergonomically designed 19" keyboard drawers deliver perfect results every time. A success story in the making.
