Hi Everyone,
Not sure if anyone can help but I am looking to find some more suitable chairs for staff working in our de-burr department. At present they are using bog standard office chairs which are not providing enough support. I have looked at various types of chairs but wondered if someone could recommend one?
Thanks in advance
Angie

I'm sorry Angela, but you don't provide sufficient information to allow a focussed response.
Working height of bench, type and size of items being de-burred, work holders provided, mass of individual items, type of tool used, etc are all essential in order to consider the most ergonomically efficient forms of seating.

Hmmm people sitting while de-burring, a novel approach!
De-burring here takes place while standing on anti-fatigue matting with the bench at the correct height, safety footwear, gloves, and eye protection being worn.
For reference we de-burr Aluminium castings weighing up to 5kg.

Andy, I've worked in a foundry where they deburred ally cylinder heads and cast iron engine blocks. Everyone was standing. I've also worked where they were deburring light parts that could easily be held in one hand. There they were sitting, some on ordinary wheeled swivel chairs, others on "ergonomic" sitting/standing chairs (bum supporters) Their choice. So it seems to depend on the work in hand. (no pun intended)
