A height-adjustable desk is built from lifting columns, a motor and a controller.
How it works
Once power is connected, the controller supplies 24V DC to the column motor. Pressing a key on the handset sends the motor a forward or reverse signal. The motor turns, and its worm and worm wheel reduce the speed. As the worm wheel turns, it drives the internal lead screw through the transmission parts, which raises or lowers the inner tube. Motion parameters are set through the controller's software.
