Since Abacus developed and patented the innovative spring operated base hinged column, it has found worldwide acceptance. Robust, simple and safe to operate, it has stood the test of time.
Today’s demands for increasing operator safety and reduced maintenance costs lead to a simple choice.
The Abacus base hinged column range sets the standard.
