With SmartDesk 5, we tacked this issue head-on by using an oval-shaped frame design. Unlike the sharp corners and flat edges of a traditional rectangular frame (which often create friction and turbulence), the smooth curves of the oval shape reduce friction significantly. This not only makes the motion quieter and smoother but also ensures there's no unnecessary shaking that discrupts your workflow.
The oval shape also minimizes wear and tear over time, so you're getting a more durable desk that stays stable - even if you're running a multi-monitor setup or have heavier gear on it.
So, the design of SmartDesk 5 platform itself plays a huge role in solving issues you have raised. Its motion is super quiet at 40dB and smooth, thanks to its geometry.
