We are working on getting pricing for our latest design:
$We’ll add piecing when we have it.$
Don’t expect the XOOT system to compete on price with traditional monitor arms. It will be higher.
However, we’re doing our best to keep costs as low as possible and ensure a professional quality device made for years of trouble free operation.
Why Such A High Price?
Production Volume:
The XOOT system is a specialized device for a specialized market. We don’t anticipate high production volumes. This has a BIG effect on costs, from the parts we buy to the manufacturing of components.
High Quality:
Our aim is to make a professional grade device. By “professional” it means that your livelihood depends on it. We take this very seriously. Thus, when it comes to decisions how durable to make parts, XOOT tends to be a little “over built”.
A XOOT System Has More Parts:
A XOOT system has more parts than a traditional monitor arm. To illustrate this, the system can be divided into five general sections. Each section contributes a unique set of features:
The Anti-Topple Arms and Base
This system keeps the screen from falling in your lap when it’s tilted forward.
This system is more stable than traditional monitor arms. With traditional monitor arms the weight of the screen is supported at one point at the back of the desk.
This system takes up minimal desk space in front of the screen when compared to a stand. A stand requires a large base to prevent toppling forward.
The Upper Pivoting Arm
The single arm easily pivots the screen over your mouse and keyboard.
Heavy steel is used to create a rigid arm with reduced screen wobble.
Roller bearings are used for all pivot points(low friction and a long device lifetime).
A Screen Kit
Each screen type requires its own kit. The kit tunes the XOOT system for weightless operation.
When upgrading to a new drawing tablet, don’t buy a new support arm, just change the XOOT system Kit.
The Electromagnetic Braking System
This feature makes the XOOT system very easy to use. However, it adds parts like: Electromagnets, circuit boards, wires, and a power supply.
Use a light touch to unlock the screen’s position.
Easily move the screen to its new location.
The screen instantly locks in place when you let go.
We worked hard to make the design as simple as possible without compromising the quality or user experience.
The XOOT system is designed to change how you interact with your screen.
When adjusting your screen becomes fast and almost effortless, it can have a major effect on your workflow and comfort level.
The last reason why XOOT costs more…
XOOT is Different:
The XOOT system is philosophically different in how touch/drawing screens are held. Our focus is on fast and efficient operation. We try to eliminate anything that complicates moving the screen to comfortable, function, task focused positions.
This means a completely new way of building an arm system.
Way too expensive.
Good save !
