wall manufacturer, we marry both disciplines to give the client a total
turnkey solution. Our
corporate website is an overview of the many facets that make up the
"Americon Experience".
Technical Furniture
Americon manufactures a wide range of dispatch consoles for police, fire
and security. Many styles and options are available to personalize consoles
to individual needs. Rather than the typical table style system with metal
table legs that can restrict leg room, Americon consoles are robust and full
bodied. Leg room is never compromised even when utilizing lifting motors,
cpu storage and cable management. We manufacture many versatile
styles that can be used in numerous applications. An example would be that
our dispatch furniture can be used for 911 consoles, emergency
management furniture, security consoles, call center furniture, NOC
consoles, process management and trading desks. For examples,
view our project briefs.
Better Materials
The materials that we use in manufacturing our products are many times more
impact resistant than the traditional high-pressure laminates that are commonly
found in our competitor's products. The use of these space
age materials enables us to create free-formed furniture without
utilizing traditional bumper moldings or laminate tapes. The company also offers an upgraded
worksurface made from solid surface cultured marble. Our automated
manufacturing processes allow us to produce consistently superior products
that are extremely cost effective.
Command Consoles
Americon "OMNI Series" furniture has been appropriate named. It works well in most any
application in command centers, control centers, dispatch centers and security environments. As dispatch furniture, it is custom made to meet the individual customer's
needs. There are three basic types to choose from. static that serve well in seated applications,
split-level sit/stand consoles with two independently movable work
surfaces and sit/stand motorized full-lift
consoles that are amazingly simple to adjust and work well with slatwalls and monitor arms. All versions offer many
accessories
and options. the customer can choose cockpit style angular consoles,
straight linear consoles and true concentric-arc style workstations.
Control Consoles
Yes, we still make "Commander Series" control
room furniture for those who are looking for the "Starship Enterprise". Our
enclosed consoles offer rack mounts, faceplates, an open architecture metal
frame, front & rear access, cable management and many other standard
features. They can also be ordered in an open styling without hoods. There is
still a need for these types of consoles in process management and utilities
rooms where a dust-free environment is important. Standard turrets can be
ordered to create single, double or triple-tier consoles
Steel Frame Consoles
Americon also manufactures a continuous "Ergonaut Series" workstation system that eliminates leg
obstructions. The tubular frame is made from 14 gage tubular steel and can
be expanded both vertically and horizontally. A uniquely designed hollow
slatwall eliminates all power and monitor cords from obstructing full use of
the worksurface. The slatwall is expandable vertically in 6" increments and
can be added to at any time.
Flip-Screen Furniture
Our "Communicator Series" flip-screen furniture for flat screens offers line of
communication and eliminates viewing obstructions between participants. Flip-screens can be added to any Americon
workstation. This line of furniture takes an ordinary conference table and turns it into a
multi-purpose tool for EOCs and training rooms. With just a flip of the
lid, a conference room transforms into a working emergency management center
or war room. Flip-panels are also available in our modular furniture. The flip
panel can be securely locked and works equally well with all-in-one
computers or the traditional trio. In the down position, the functionality of a traditional conference table
returns.
Call-Center Furniture
Crosstalk
freestanding lo-profile modular furniture is designed specifically for
call centers where interaction between call-takers is important as well as
maintaining the privacy that is usually only found in cubicle style
furniture. Many sizes and configurations can be achieved including l-shapes,
u-shapes, t-shapes and pod clusters. Crosstalk workstations with above
counter storage cabinets are only 52" tall. The waterfall design of the
storage wings adds spaciousness in a normally cluttered environment.
Modular Furniture
Americon also manufactures full-height "Signature Series" modular
furniture. There are many options available including our patented flip-panel. Flipper door storage above
the worksurface raises overall height of the workstation to 66". Straight
workstations with flipper-door storage are also available. Engraved logos
and chevrons strategically placed promote teaming and personal
worth.
Surveillance
Security and surveillance centers use specialized equipment to monitor
buildings and full complexes. So, we manufacture "Secure Series" surveillance consoles that are available in linear or
cockpit styling. We incorporate low-profile turrets into our consoles to mount electronics
equipment. These consoles are unique in the industry because the turrets are
integrated seamlessly into the worksurface of the console. A unique
continuous grommet system allows monitor mounts, task lights and other
peripherals to be placed anywhere along the perimeter of the console. As
with all Americon products, there are many accessories
and options that can be integrated in.
Video Cabinetry
As a leading audiovisual integrator, we blend this expertise seamlessly
with our cabinetry to produce many innovative and custom AV cabinets for video walls and video conferencing
applications. We have a new Electronic
Map Table that doubles as a multimedia presentation
system that utilizes multi-touch technology and can easily be rolled from
room to room.
PWM-1000
In an effort to always be a step ahead of our customer's needs, we have
created a "state of the art" "Personal Workspace Manager. The PWM-1000 is a self-contained drop-in appliance
that contains a desk fan and a forced air foot warmer. It also controls task lighting and sit/stand motorized lifting
systems. Most common usage is 911 emergency dispatch centers and call
centers where first responders work long hours and must have control of
their own environmental systems.
