Description
Designed to suit a range of settings, the M2 allows the user to bring their work to them, versus having to adjust to a static monitor stand. M2’s articulating arm offers effortless height and depth adjustment for the majority of flat-panel screens available today, accommodating monitors up to 9kg (20 lbs).
Instead of using a gas cylinder to counterbalance the weight of the monitor, the M2 monitor arm uses extension spring technology. Without clunky mechanisms to complicate the design, the M2 offers uncompromising lightweight, long-term durability and an ultra-thin design that complements flat-panel monitors and attachments for a truly flexible workstation.
Offering all the benefits of a traditional dynamic monitor arm, with none of the shortcomings, the M2 redefines high-performance monitor arms. Current-generation monitor arms utilise a bulky, failure-prone gas cylinder to support the weight of the monitor. The M2 instead uses an innovative mechanical spring to achieve exceptional performance and durability in a lightweight, ultra-thin design.
The M2 embodies what a monitor arm should be, allowing the user to work in a healthy posture by setting the monitor at an optimal distance and height. Collaboration is made easier through effortless screen sharing, and desk space is increased. The M2’s seamless cable management and minimal design enhances the look of any workstation.
Design Story - Designed and developed by the Humanscale Design Studio, the M2 was created to suit any workspace and add ergonomic versatility to the workstation. The M2 was built to offer exceptional performance and durability in a lightweight, ultra-thin design.
Technical Drawing
Features
- Less Is More - With fewer moving parts than other articulating monitor arms, no gas cylinder, and steel and aluminum construction allows the M2 to have an ultra thin profile while extending its useful life to many times that of traditional gas spring monitor arms. As a result, every M2 monitor arm is backed by Humanscale’s robust 15-year warranty.
- Flexible Intuition - With an arm reach of 255mm (20"), height adjustment of 10" and an additional 12" link, the M2 is one of the most versatile monitor arms available. It also features a removable 180-degree stop that protects walls and panels.
- A New Level of Customization - The M2 has customizable option including multiple surface attachments and add-ons like a notebook holder that can accommodate 230 - 355 mm (9" - 14") laptops. M2 also boasts interchangeable mounting options such as clamp, bolt through and slatwall mounts as well as accommodate multiple monitor types through a variety of VESA plates.
- Design - The M2 is thinner, lighter and easier to manoeuvre than any currentgeneration monitor arm, and its sleek aesthetic complements the thin profiles of today’s flat panel monitors.
- Durability - With no gas cylinder and fewer parts than current-generation arms, less can go wrong with the M2 over time. As a result, it’s backed by a 10 year warranty.
- Performance - Designed to support 95% of the monitors in use today and offering effortless adjustment of both height and depth, the M2 will accommodate virtually every application for single monitors.
