CLO SYSTEMS AWARD-WINNING ROBOTIC MOUNTING ARM HANDLES THE ‘HEAVY LIFTING’ AND MOVEMENT FOR EVEN THE LARGEST FLAT PANELS AT CES
Programmable, Remote
Controlled Mounting Solution Designed to Manage the
Largest Screens and Recessed Mounting Location Options
in Booth# 26426
LAS VEGAS, January 7, 2008 – CLO
Systems, an industry leader in advanced mounting
solutions for flat panel displays, is showing its
award-winning X-arm™ robotic mount for elegant and
secure movement of today’s largest flat panel displays
at this week’s 2008 International Consumer Electronics
Show. CLO’s exclusive X-arm is available now and will
be in booth #26426 for viewing. The mount is designed
for the larger, custom installations that accommodate
plasma or LCD flat panel TVs from 40- to 63-inch sizes,
and screen weights of up to 180 pounds.
“The X-arm has proven itself to our dealers’
installation designers and technicians to be sturdy and
strong enough to provide a reliable mount for these
large screens,” said Ken Nguyen, director of sales and
marketing at CLO Systems. “It is the only robotic mount
that can tilt, swivel and extend the bigger screens
without a hint of stress or failure.”
The X-arm is also the choice for installations that
require the display to recess into a cabinet or
étagère. The arm easily moves the screen in and out of
the cabinet and then using the remote control, the
robotic arm adjusts the viewing angle of flat panel
displays in order to eliminate glare, reflection, and
off-axis viewing problems. Cable management provisions
include full concealment via a bellows located behind
the display. The same bellows also prohibits foreign
objects from interfering with the movement of the
actuators. A universal mounting attachment kit is
provided to facilitate easy coupling with the flat
panel.
At the touch of a button on the provided universal
remote control or via a RS-232 controlled touch panel,
X-arm’s Robotic Display Mounting Solution (RDMS™)
smoothly extends, even the largest TV, 12 inches
allowing the viewer to then adjust the swivel
left/right range of motion from 20º to 28º (depending
on display size) in either direction, and tilt range up
to 20º down and 7º up until the optimum glare-free,
on-axis viewing angle is obtained and stored. Four
programmable memory locations are provided to recall
viewing preferences for day and night, or user one and
two.
“X-arm’s sturdy design and mechanisms guarantee that
even installations of the largest flat panel displays
are secure and flexible,” said Nguyen. “This X-arm
solution, in conjunction with its one-touch remote
operation capabilities, also allows the end user to
have the TV installed exactly where they want it, even
inside a cabinet or home theater equipment case for
fully recessed and hidden placement opportunities.”
X-arm is available exclusively through CLO System’s
strategic partners Chief | Sanus Systems (CSAV); model
# CM7 at www.chiefmfg.com and
model# LA112-B1 at www.sanus.com and is
also on display in South Hall 1 booth # 20923 with
CSAV.
