 

Rotary Files

Rotary files occupy no more floor space than
traditional vertical files but yield up to four times the filing and storage
capacity of standard lateral files.
The rotary file concept is essentially like two
file cabinets back-to-back that rotate so you don't have to move an inch.
Times-2 Speed Files® from
Richards-Wilcox are the original rotary files. They are locking, double-depth,
multimedia, modular storage cabinets that rotate for access from one or both
sides. They are available in 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 tiers.
Times-2s can be configured in many different ways
and can function as room dividers (allowing access to its contents from one or
two rooms simultaneously), workspace dividers, work surfaces, below window
storage, and many others.
Times-2s are manufactured with the highest quality
materials and the most advanced engineering features of any storage system
available in the world.
Features & Benefits:
-
Capacity - The
capacity of Times-2 is unparalleled by traditional
drawer file standards. A single 8-tier unit holds as
much material as four standard vertical files but
utilizes only half the floor space.

The charts above show
the capacity of each model Times-2 Speed File and
the comparison to four-drawer lateral and vertical
files. The chart doesn't tell the full story. A
conventional drawer file will store a maximum of 35
LFI per square foot of floor space. Times-2
will house up to 72 LFI per square foot. The
capacity gain, when combined with the floor space
savings and the greater access improvements, means
productivity increases as wall as measurable cost
savings.
-
Access - The rotary
design of Times-2 means that half the materials are
available for immediate access. When Times-2 is
placed between two work stations, simultaneous
access is possible. Simultaneous access is
also possible when Times-2s are used as a room
divider - defining space, eliminating the cost of
construction or furniture panels, and increasing
access to stored materials.
-
Modular Design -
Times-2 Speed Files are modular in three ways:
-
Seven different
heights are available and these heights can be
used in various space saving applications,
including storage beneath low windows where
space can often be wasted and in alcoves.
-
Units are designed
to accommodate Letter-Size documents or, as a
separate cabinet, Legal/EDP/A4-Sized documents
can be stored.
-
Units can be
placed in any floor plan as a single unit or
multiple units connected together to achieve
virtually any desired length.
-
Flexibility - Times-2s
are available with a large variety of interior
accessories, making them well-suited for a multitude
of storage needs (please see below for a partial
list of common Applications). Accessories include:
-
Rollout reference
shelves
-
Shallow rollout
drawers (for easy storage of CDs, video tapes,
microfilm/microfiche, index cards, checks, etc.)
-
Rollout drawers
-
Security drawers
-
Wardrobe Kit -
creates storage for personal items such as
coats, purses, shoes, lunches, and books
-
Cost - The best method
to compare various multimedia storage systems is to
break cost into cost per Lineal File Inch (LFI).
Times-2s are demonstrably lower than quality lateral
and vertical files.
