Orbis Adapt – Cable Free Desking Solution

Orbis Adapt is the world’s first integrated battery powered desking solution.

Orbis Adapt has been developed to provide true agility in the workspace enabling spatial flexibility completely untethered from a fixed power supply.   With fully powered mobile freedom Orbis Adapt can be located to suit the end users’ needs.

Each desk is suitable for a single occupant and features electric height adjustment, laptop and mobile device charging, privacy screening, mobility and folding worktop. The solution is also monitor compatible with the addition of a DC monitor, adaptor, and adjustable arm. It can be relocated, reconfigured or stored away with ease.

Powered by the 2022 ABA100 award winning QIKPAC commercial space battery solution.

What really sets Orbis Adapt apart, however, is the customised wiring loom.

The solution features a highly resolved power delivery system, including a range of electronic and component-based innovation.  At the centre of the system is a purpose designed commercial workspace battery which will reliably power the height adjustment mechanism, monitor and all peripheral devices for a full day or more from a single charge.

Orbis Adapt can enable a full day of work from a single charge. This is made possible through the integration of one, two or three batteries depending on the amount of power being consumed by the occupant. For example, two batteries are recommended to sustain 11.5 hours of use in a typical workplace scenario. This calculation is based on the desk being used to power a phone, a large 27 inch monitor, a 13 inch laptop and to adjust the sit to stand function once every hour.

Tim Hobbs, Technical Director and owner of OE Electrics explains why battery technology is imperative to the new ways of working.

“The evolution to high-powered USB-C for DC powered devices including laptops, monitors and lighting enables agility in the workspace.  Powering desking independent from a fixed power supply creates mobility and the DC power itself uses up to 30% less power than a traditional fixed AC power supply”.

Additionally, the OE QIKPAC Li-ion battery at the heart of the power system is 95% recyclable with the recovered materials going to the production of new Li-ion batteries supporting a circular and sustainable battery economy.

Orbis Adapt also incorporates a number of non-electrical features including the safety-minded anti-pinch bumper screen and the daisy chain charging for efficiency of space.
