The 
concept of a rotary file is to get twice the amount of shelving in a small space 
and also to have a locking capability.
Productivity 
Rating: Rotary file systems can be accessed from both sides of the 
cabinet for twice the retrieval time but only allow up to a maximum of 40 file 
actions per hour. This translates into a fairly low productivity rating and will 
slow down active environments where employees are constantly rotating the cabinet 
searching for files and also doing non-ergonomic 
actions while filing and refiling.
Rotary 
Files  - two cabinets in one, without the messy drawers. Rotary Files can 
be accessed from both sides of the cabinet. Rotary Files are moved manually (not 
recommended for ergonomic or ADA 
safety guidelines) inside of a cabinet for access to one or both sections 
of shelving in the unit.
