Durability and load per EN 527
The mechanism completed 5,000 cycles per EN 527 plus another 5,000 cycles with a uniformly distributed rated load.
What this means for buyers
This test answers the key durability question: the desk should handle regular raising and lowering with a working load, not just move nicely when empty.
- Cycles
- 10 000

What was tested
Verify the service life of the lifting mechanism and the desk's performance under repeated load close to daily use.
The desk was cyclically raised and lowered: first under the EN 527 program, then with a uniformly distributed rated load of 1000 N.

How the test was run
- 1
Sample preparation
The desk is assembled in its working configuration with the tabletop, and the drive's initial operation is checked.
- 2
5,000 cycles per EN 527
The mechanism repeatedly runs the full raise-and-lower scenario.
- 3
5,000 cycles under load
A uniformly distributed rated load of 1000 N is added on the tabletop.
- 4
Final check
After the cycle series, the drive, fasteners, and frame are checked for the absence of critical failures.
