About Democracy Latabatra

Ny Democracy dia latabatra natao ho an'ny toeram-piasana iombonana. Ny latabatra dia manesotra ny fitaovana fitehirizana hita maso ary manolo azy ireny amin'ny takelaka ambony mangarahara, lavaka roa mitovy endrika amin'ny taratasy A4 ary sisin-tavoahangy antsasa-mangarahara. Ny velaran-tsehatra mangarahara dia mampitoetra ny faritra iasana ho misokatra ary mampiseho ny fomba fandaminan'ny mpampiasa tsirairay ny fitaovany manokana. Ny rafitra dia vita amin'ny fantsona aliminioma misy fandrakofana vovoka matte. Ny vatana, ny kodiarana, ny takelaka ary ny tiraka dia notapahina tamin'ny milina CNC avy amin'ny acrylic, hazo ary ABS. Ny refin'ny latabatra dia 1230 mifototra amin'ny 640 ary 760 milimetatra. Rehefa vondronina ny latabatra maro, dia tohanana ny asa an-tokotany nefa mijanona ho hita ny toetra manokan'ny tsirairay.
