COLIN DALE equipment has introduced the VEGA range of flush fitting platform hoists, with lifting capacity up to 40 tonnes.
The lifts reach a maximum height of 1400mm-1650mm (55.16-65.0in) in 65 seconds and can be moved to take full advantage of available space. The platforms can be installed flush with the workshop floor to give clear access to neighbouring workbays and the absence of lifting columns, cross members or similar obstructions permits unrestricted access to all parts of the vehicle.
VEGA lifts are electrohydraulic with single and threephase options and incorporate the normal safety features including an anti toe-trapping device.
Pistons have been put under the platforms to minimise weathering thereby allowing the hoists to be used safely outside when required.
A wheel-free lifting system is offered as an optional extra. Colindale Equipment Company, The Hyde Industrial Estate, Colindale, London NW9 6HG.
