Customize your Workstation from the ground up
Every employee can benefit from a workstation, no matter their task—assembly, repair, or production. A workstation can also provide an organized personal space for tools and personal items.
Workstations offer an ideal solution to give each employee their own space while keeping them close to their activities. They can be designed in simple or complex ways and offer various configurations and accessories.
But how elaborate should these spaces be? Should your employees be equipped with every possible tool, or is a basic solution with the essential functionalities for everyday tasks sufficient?
Rest assured: we are here to help you answer these questions and guide you through everything that can be accomplished with workstations, regardless of their complexity.
Rousseau has the solution for installing workstations that are adapted to your employees.
Basic Multi‑Purpose Workbench
A basic multi‑purpose workbench can be the ideal cost‑effective solution for personnel who only need a table for simple tasks. These workbenches can be adjustable, fixed, or mobile if they need to be moved to different areas.
The basic multi‑purpose workbench can be equipped with many add‑ons: open or closed legs, crossbars, shelves and footrests, electrical units, casters (mobile), sliding‑door cabinets, drawer cabinets, compact cabinets, and even heavy‑duty drawer units that can be added under the table to provide additional storage, separation, and locking if needed.
Accessories complete the customization of your work bench: computer and keyboard supports, paper or cardboard roll holders, circular packaging cutter, power bars, and more.
Riser Shelf Workstation
Do your personnel need a space equipped with electrical outlets to plug in devices or tools? The riser shelf is the ideal addition to meet this need.
This shelf, installed above the workstation, is equipped with outlets that allow employees to plug in computers, devices, and power tools.
Workstations benefit from the same storage options as the multi‑purpose models, such as drawers and cabinets.
Packaging and Production Workstation
For personnel who need to package, assemble, disassemble items, or perform general production tasks, a workstation equipped with an EW structure provides extra multifunctional overhead storage that is both practical and efficient.
These workstations can be configured in the same way as your basic multi‑purpose workstation, but the focus is on adding shelves, perforated panels, bins, totes, computer supports, and LED lighting.
These accessories are installed above the workstation to provide ergonomic access to all required items. The additional lighting improves visibility of the product during work or packaging.
End‑of‑Aisle Workstation
When space optimization is very important, or when the workstation needs to be placed near a shelving aisle, the end‑of‑aisle workstation is the best solution.
This workstation has different dimensions from the traditional multi‑purpose workstation, but it can be equipped in various ways, just like its multi‑purpose counterpart.
The additions made to this workstation depend entirely on its use. Riser shelves, bins, and supports can be added to improve ergonomics, while drawers or shelves can be installed under the table for storage.
Maintenance and Repair Workstation
This is the most complete and sophisticated workstation. This solution is ideal when employees spend most of their time assembling, repairing, using a computer, or performing general production tasks.
In a large‑scale facility, this workstation can be combined with several components, such as shelves, cabinets, and drawers adjacent to the work surface or installed underneath it. Screens, supports, bins, perforated panels, and other organizing containers can also be installed above the table.
This workstation is the perfect solution for high‑usage environments
Adapting to Your Needs
Although many workstation options exist, the ultimate choice must meet your needs and those of your employees.
- What do your employees do daily at their station?
- How could they be more efficient at these stations?
- What is the best option to save space?
These are examples of questions you can ask yourself when considering your new workstation solution.
