Samsung Techwin Europe
Client:
Project:
Location:
Samsung Techwin Europe
Demonstration Room
Weybridge, United Kingdom
Having relocated premises to Height Brooklands, a
prestigious riverside commercial office development
Samsung Techwin Europe saw an opportunity to
create a state of-the-art demonstration room where all
of the company’s very latest IP Network solutions were
to be on show.
Winsted proposed a Prestige Sight-Line console,
selected for its modern aesthetics perfect for this hightech environment, custom finished in Samsung’s
corporate colours with a vibrant blue work surface and
incorporating the Samsung logo on each side panel.
The console allows use of Winsted’s Versa-Trak display
mounting system for ergonomic comfort and
adjustability. Combined with VESA-compliant brackets,
Versa-Trak has enabled two 21in flat panel screens to
be easily attached and provides horizontal and
vertical adjustability for optimal viewing angles and
sight lines for the operating staff. The console also offers
long-term advantages through its modular design,
which allows the console to be adapted to meet
changing future requirements, thereby extending its
operational lifespan.

Project:
Location:
TAV Airport Holdings
Air Control Tower
Enfidha, Tunis
The state-of-the-art airport is Tunisia’s seventh
international airport boasting first class facilities and
services designed for a capacity in excess of 7 million
passengers annually.
Great importance was given to the workstations
having an optimum ergonomic design, while the use of
space
and
aesthetics
were
also
important
considerations in selecting the correct console design
and room layout for the imposing 90m high tower. A
solution based upon Winsted’s Prestige Sight-Line
range was decided upon and seamlessly integrated
into the tower formed to match the room’s curvature.
With operator comfort at mind and ensuring air-traffic
control staff can perform their highly responsible duties
without problem, a ‘reflection minimising’ dark colour
was chosen for all worktops reducing any glare from
the towers imposing windows, while LED task lighting
was incorporated into the console design ensuring an
adequate level of lighting day and night.

Connex Group
Monitoring Room
Edingen, Belgium
The Connex Center, a highly secure alarm receiving
centre and remote support centre is operational 24/7,
365 days a year securing streets and properties
nationally. The ability of staff to operate effectively in the
control room is a major factor influencing the response
time and outcome within incidents and consequently the

a must.
Winsted’s solution for the control room was commissioned
ahead of rival bids and provides consoles that enable
the Connex Group to achieve a number of aims - to
provide
an
ergonomically correct
environment,
compliment the modern décor of the center, whilst
providing a modular solution which allows for any future
expansion or changes in configuration to meet future
operational needs.
A bespoke three person ‘island’ control console based
on the EnVision design, with a further two workstations
providing an additional five comfortable operator
positions complete with storage were designed,
manufactured and installed. The furniture attractively
finished in a ‘non-reflective’ graphite marmoleum
matching the colour scheme of the room, teamed with
the black and silver of the framework makes the
completed room feel spacious, light and airy. The result is
an impressive site with innovative design.

Tecknowledge
Training Room
Carmarthen, Wales
Winsted played a leading role in a brand new training
simulation system installed at Dyfed Powys Police HQ in
Carmarthen, Wales.
Winsted’s flagship Sight Line console system has proved
a key factor in enabling this monitoring/recording
function to operate effectively. A custom-built
horseshoe-shaped Sight Line console was supplied for
the project, following Winsted’s success in winning a
competitive tender organised by IT and audio-visual
systems integrator Tecknowledge .
Tecknowledge Proprietor Robin Newbury explains that
his company provided Dyfed Powys Police with a
consultative input to the design specification process.
“We were tasked with finding a suitable solution for the
control room fit-out and I had not dealt with Winsted
before. We therefore requested tender quotes from a
number of suppliers, but following this process we
recommended Winsted to the client. This advice was
based on the high quality of the company’s control
room furniture and the fact that Winsted offered the
best option in terms of its service and the furniture’s
return on investment. “
