    Star Micronics Unveils mUnite VESA Pole Mount for Versatile Two-Tablet Workstations

    The new VESA Pole Mount accessory further enhances the mUnite Mount 18 tablet stand, meeting demand for operational flexibility within the retail and hospitality industries.

    Somerset, NJ – August 15, 2023 – Star Micronics, a world-renowned innovator in point-of-sale (POS) and customer engagement technology, announces the release of their latest mUnite VESA Pole Mount accessory designed to optimize dual-tablet workstations. This new solution adds versatility to Star’s mUnite Mount 18 tablet display mount by enabling a second tablet to securely attach, creating a customer-facing option, or accommodating two tablets for online order management.

    “The mUnite VESA Pole Mount leverages the universally accepted VESA mounting design, providing compatibility with a broad range of tablet enclosures, including Star Micronics’ own Universal mEnclosure. It’s another answer to the ever-growing demand for efficiency and operational flexibility within the retail and hospitality industries.”

    Christophe Naasz, Global Director of Business Development at Star Micronics

    The mUnite Mount 18 tablet stand, already favored for its sleek and minimalist design, is now further enhanced with the new VESA Pole Mount. The accessory is easy to install and use, transforming the Mount 18 into a versatile multi-use workstation. Star’s VESA 75mm/100mm mount accessory works with any tablet enclosure that uses universal VESA mounting to affix to POS stands or pole mounts, including the Universal mEnclosure and Mini Universal mEnclosure. The Pole Mount keeps tablets securely attached yet effortless to remove, streamlining sales and customer interactions.

    Star Micronics’ Mount 18, a part of the mCollection® series, has been well received for its space-maximizing contemporary design, catering to the bustling environments of restaurants and quick-service restaurants (QSRs). Now, its ability to securely hold two tablets while keeping them easily accessible makes it an excellent choice for businesses needing organized dual-tablet workstations.

    “Star is committed to continuously innovating and delivering meaningful, tangible benefits to our customers. We are excited to see this versatile addition to our mCollection series assist businesses in maintaining a well-organized, efficient workspace.”
