The Neo-Flex Wall Mount is available for $49.00.
Each new product incorporates Ergotron's Constant Force (CF™) lift-and-pivot motion technology. CF converts a conventional spring's linear force curve into a constant flat force through the entire range of lifting or pivoting motion for a flat screen monitor, LCD TV, Plasma Screen or other digital display. As a result, users exert much less effort to noiselessly adjust their computer display or television. The consumer electronics industry can be assured of robust reliability in each display and monitor installation, without inflated mounting project costs.
«We're thrilled to offer products that add flexibility and adjustability to LCD Displays, plasmas screens and notebooks,» said Lee Schalk, VP of North American Sales for Ergotron. «The CF advantage ensures effortless adjustability at a fraction of the cost. Adding these products to our widely recognized collection of mounting solutions offers consumers a high quality, less expensive alternative to traditional display and notebook mounting.»
Ergotron, a rapidly growing global company focused on the channel and OEM business, expects to release additional CF products for the consumer electronics industry throughout 2006. For more information on Ergotron products, visit www.ergotron.com or call Ergotron sales at 1-800-888-8458.
