An actuator system includes a motor having a system of rotating shafts, a conversion arrangement including one of the rotating shafts and converting rotational motion to elongation, and a brake arrangement having one of the rotating shafts as a brake shaft, an electromagnet, at least one brake chamber formed between the brake shaft and an associated brake wall, and a magnetoactive brake member for each brake chamber. Each brake chamber includes a free-wheeling region for receiving the respective brake member. Each brake chamber includes a braking region with a decreasing radial distance between wall and rotation axis. Each brake member is arranged movably in the respective brake chamber in such a way that frictional contact can be formed with the brake shaft and brake wall. In an activated state, the electromagnet is configured to bring each brake member into the associated free-wheeling region.

The table with a porcelain-enameled steel tabletop provides a magnetic, erasable writing surface directly on the tabletop. The tabletop is defined by opposed upper and lower surfaces and a peripheral side edge, and is formed from porcelain-enameled steel. The porcelain-enameled steel may include a steel layer, having opposed upper and lower surfaces, and a porcelain layer enameled on the upper surface of the steel layer. The porcelain layer defines the upper surface of the tabletop, providing the magnetic, erasable writing surface. At least one leg is secured to the lower surface of the tabletop and extends downwardly therefrom. A protective strip may be secured to, and cover, the peripheral side edge of the tabletop. The protective strip may further be secured to, and cover, a portion of the upper surface of the tabletop and a portion of the lower surface of the tabletop.
