Data centers are booming in Europe with many technological innovations to make them more efficient and cleaner. But what about all the operators who work in these buildings daily?

Many of them are dedicated to “proximity gestures”: installation/modification of racks and equipment, connection management, system configuration, etc and do not have a suitable workstation: mobile with storage, ergonomic, accepting heavy loads, and supporting the secure installation of equipment.

FULL SAVE, Toulouse Telcome operator keen to provide its customers and employees with optimal working conditions, drafted in 2019, specifications to find an innovative response to this topic.

The system was supposed to allow an operator: on the other hand, to have a mobile, ergonomic, and compact workstation for moving in narrow aisles; on the other hand, to facilitate and secure the installation of equipment in 19-inch racks with a single operator. To respond to this, MAKIBA has developed ICARE, a mobile ergonomic trolley with the Easy Rack system allowing integration into equipment racks up to 20kg.

After several months of use, customer feedback is very positive:
“Whether it is to set up equipment in a rack, to maneuver equipment or simply to work in the computer room, ICARE makes this effortless with maximum user comfort.”
Used and validated by the entire Advanced Medio Matrix team, as well as its customers.
