Liftmaster is a fully electric columns lift system, designed for raising rail vehicles, during assembly and maintenance operations. The system performs synchronized lifting and lowering of wagons, locomotives, boogies and complete trains.
The vehicles are placed on lifting carriages located on each column, to be subsequently raised. The lifting and lowering speed can be fixed or variable through VFD Inverter.
The columns control panel is centralized on a single pulpit. Each column can also have its own independent movement for maintenance or adjustment operations.
All columns have been optimized to be easily moved; in fact, with its hydraulic jack system and front/lateral wheels, the columns can be moved within the maintenance or production department with total flexibility.
Upon request, each column can be placed on special sliding tracks to allow proper positioning. The technical features of the lifts can be customized depending on the version and in particular on the Customer’s needs
