A floating massage table in a secret panel
25 Jul 2014 . BY Jason Holland
 /
Hepcomotion has supplied linear actuator and motion products on a specially-created sub-floor elevating massage table. It was part of a project to install a new entrance sequence including a gym and stairs at a private listed residence in London.

Meia, a designer and manufacturer of automated moving architectural elements, installed a fully cantilevered ‘floating’ massage table that retracts completely beneath a secret 2.1m by 0.9m panel in the gym floor. The company contracted Hepcomotion to supply the necessary system parts, which included Zimm screw jacks and Winkel bearing systems from its range.

Based on the meia concept, motion had to take place in a number of stages. The massage table and infill floor is first lowered while the primary floor slides out of the way. Then, the infill floor raises up with the massage table and locks into place flush to the wooden gym floor. Finally, the heated massage table rises to a height of 900mm. From here the massage table height can be adjusted by the operator from the switch plate on the side of the table to a maximum of 1,200mm down to 200mm with the infill floor locked in place.

The entire cycle of the moving elements of the 350kg system takes 40 seconds – repositioning from closed to open, or vice versa.
