Essential Install July 2017 | Page 45

Essential Install | Brackets, Racking & Support Nick says that specifi c B-Tech features include mounts that are universally compatible with most screens available, meaning there is no need to buy a specifi c mount for a particular screen. He says: “Most mounts can be used in landscape or portrait orientation and we include safety screws as standard with the majority of our products. These help prevent accidental or unauthorised removal of AV equipment. “Tool-less adjustment of our 8-point adjustment video wall products and tilting mounts make it incredible easy to align screens or set your viewing angle; and pop-out functionality is available on a wide range of our products, including our full suite of video wall mounts as well as a variety of single screen or specialist mounts.” Nick says that in terms of the main trends and new development in this category, digital signage screen sizes continue to grow, with most of the big name screen manufacturers now offering screens of 90in and even larger. Nick adds: “Touch screen industry is also now well established, with education being one of the primary markets for this type of technology. There is also a momentum for interactive signage in retail, with small boutique outlets as well as the main chains investing in a better experience for their customers. “We have also seen a rise in popularity in LED solutions, particularly in retail as the advances in LED technology become more and more apparent. This year’s InfoComm was dominated by LED solutions, with ever reducing pixel pitch and improved quality. At ISE we previewed our solution to meet this demand, the BT9341 mount – a universal LED solution which has full pull-out capability, offering easy rear access to integrators.” Elo says its I-Series all-in-one product family is designed for all needs in retail and hospitality applications, combining modern mobile architecture with the flexibility and configurability of traditional POS systems which help to reduce cost of hardware in POS environments. The company says that combined with SpacePole market-leading mounts by Ergonomic Solutions, installers can create a sleek design and an ergonomic solution that is simple, effective and secure. With fl exible VESA mounts and poles, customisation of tailored space-saving and cost-effi cient POS installations is easy, the company says. Available in fi ve colours to suit different environments, with 38mm or 44.5mm diameter base poles and internal cable management, SpacePole Essential poles and mounts allow strategic placement of the touchscreen. Vivanco has added two new ranges of TV mounts this summer to its large portfolio of accessories. Vivanco has refreshed its range to be more in line with the ever changing TV market. The company says: “Screens are gettin g bigger, thinner and lighter resulting in fi xing confi gurations (positions/patterns/technical specifi cation) of VESA patterns changing. This poses a big challenge for all TV bracket suppliers. However, Vivanco is leading here in terms of adoption speed for relevant changes. This is shown by the coverage of their new product range. “The launch has seen a more emotive approach to the packaging with high impact displays, colour coded navigation and the main features visible at one glance. This is all designed to ensure their retail customers and end consumers are making the correct choice when purchasing a new TV mount.” The Vivanco range consists of 13 pre-assembled products covering TV models up to 85in using the four main functions of fl at, tilt, motion and full motion. The Premium Titan range consists of eight easy to install high-end products made from very light aluminium. Included with the Titan range are Fischer anchor wall fi xing kits and a 10-year guarantee. Among the latest products there is a Titan XXL full motion TV mount which has the options to mount both fl at (up to 85in) and curved (up to 40in) TVs. Benefi ts include quick and easy installation, a maximum reach of 670mm from the wall, tool free adjustment of the tilt function and level correction, very smooth motion and integrated cable management making this a great choice for both the install and retail markets. The company adds: “Vivanco supports both ranges with an online mount fi nder (www.vivanco. com/wallmounts) which caters for 6,000 TVs and is continuously updated with all new releases. “Vivanco and Titan brackets are priced to be competitive in the market place allowing for the ever important margin potential in the accessory business for our retail partners.” More Information: AWE [phone], www.awe-europe.com B-Tech International [phone], www.btechavmounts.com Elo [phone], www.elotouch.eu Future Automation [phone], www.futureautomation.co.uk Invision UK [phone], www.invisionuk.com Peerless AV [phone], www.peerless-av.com Penn Elcom [phone], www.penn-elcom.com Turnstone AV [phone], www.turnstoneav.co.uk Vivanco: [phone], www.vivancoshop.co.uk BLACK SERIES CILF124 - FULL MOTION MOUNT Distributed in the UK by AWE Europe Ltd [email protected] [phone] www.awe-europe.com July 2017 | 43
