Stertil Koni launches 60-tonne four-post lift
Commercial vehicle lift specialist Stertil Koni has announced the extension of its four-post lift range with the introduction of the ST4600, said to be one of the most heavy-duty platform lifts in the world.
Offering a lifting capacity of 60 tonnes, the platform is designed for the service of extremely heavy-duty vehicles such as specially-engineered HGVs, super-size dumper trucks for the mining industry, specialist agricultural equipment and all-terrain military transport.
Claimed to offer “immense power”, the ST4600 is simply operated using conveniently-positioned push buttons to provide smooth, accurate and controlled lifting, Stertil Koni says.
As with all Stertil Koni four-post lifts, the ST4600 offers a very low drive-on height, which the company says ensures easy access even for vehicles with low ground clearance. Accessibility may be further enhanced by installing the lift flush with the floor level within a shallow 350mm deep pit.
“The lift is also incredibly stable, with extensive locking positions making it the ideal vehicle lift for an extremely wide range of maintenance, repair and servicing tasks,” said Stertil Koni.
“Even in its lowest position, the lifting platform remains perfectly level and, with no protruding edges, the ST4600 meets the highest health and safety standards.”
Tony Edge, general manager of Stertil Koni, said: “The 60 tonne ST4600 is one of the first of its kind in the UK. With an unrivalled lifting capacity, matched to excellent accessibility, the ST4600 perfectly fills a gap in the market for controllable, precise heavy duty vehicle lifting.
“It’s an awesome piece of machinery that typifies our determination to design and develop industry-leading products that meet the changing needs of our customers in the twenty-first century.”
