Arm Extension Range: The extension of the arms can be adjusted over an extremely wide range, maximizing reach to pickup points.
Adjustable Pickup Plate: The height of the rubber plate is finely adjustable (approx. 25 mm), assisting in precise and stable support.
The structure design guarantees a long service life and minimal maintenance requirements.
Special Rolled Columns: The posts are made of a special rolled profile, which ensures exceptional rigidity and stability even under maximum load.
Carriage Guide: The load-bearing carriages run on 6 rollers, ensuring smooth and even movement.
Load and Safety Nuts: Bronze load-bearing and safety nuts ensure long-term, reliable locking.
Lubrication System: An oil dispenser ensures continuous lubrication of the support elements, reducing friction and wear.
Safety and operator comfort were primary considerations during the design process.
Broken Nut Lift/Locking: The safety system includes a broken nut lift-locking function, which provides extra protection in case of malfunction.
Acoustic Step Protection: Prevents accidental injuries while working under the vehicle.
Softline Push-Button Control: The Softline control panel, equipped with a modern, computer-controlled leveling system, enables intuitive and precise control.
Main Switch: The main switch is located directly on the column and is lockable, thus ensuring protection against unauthorized use.
Automatic Arm Locking: The lifting arms are equipped with an automatic locking mechanism, which can also be supplemented with a manual release function.
Bump Guard: A paired door bumper protects the vehicles from damage.
Full Column Covering: The inner part of the column is completely covered, which provides an aesthetic appearance and protects the internal mechanics from contamination.
Installation Width: The installation width can be adjusted without having to deduct from the load-bearing capacity.
Installation Direction: Installation is done rectangularly, perpendicular to the direction of vehicle approach.
