Car lift
A car lift is an indispensable piece of equipment for car service, tire repair shops, and service stations. It is used to raise and lower cars, trucks, and buses. This type of equipment greatly simplifies the work of the technician, optimizing the workflow and increasing the level of service: control is carried out using a lever or button. The technician does not need observation structures to work. On the Phoenix Market website https://fenix-market.com/ru/avtomobilnye_podemniki A wide range of extracts for various purposes and tasks is presented.
Two-post 2-post
Car lifts consist of two columns with lifting legs and a frame inside which there is a synchronization cable and hydraulic fluid. The lift can be symmetrical or asymmetrical, the grip is from below (lower synchronization) or from above (upper synchronization). The lift can be used for cars weighing up to 4–5 tons (SUVs).
Four-post
Car lifts consist of 4 racks and two platforms, onto which the car drives (the length of the ramp for cars is up to 480 cm, for trucks - the traverse is at least 5 m). A multi-level security system has been implemented. Equipment use: can be included in the ascent-collapse line or diagnostics; or for car washes (underbody washes); repair of Gazelles, Sprinters and other commercial vehicles; for hanging out trucks.
Scissor lifts have a hydraulic scissor-type lifting mechanism. They are designed for installation in the floor (a set of anchor bolts is often supplied with car lifts). A wide range of work: for tire fitting, service and repair of all types of transport.
Single-plunger, single-post lifts are most often used for motorcycle, passenger car and body repair. They have a compact size, making them suitable for small workshops or car washes. Several devices can form a lifting system in a car service.
Main characteristics
Load capacity. For light passenger cars, 900–2000 kg is usually sufficient, for commercial vehicles and SUVs it is better to purchase equipment designed for 2500–6000 kg. For trucks, more than 10 tons are required.
Lifting height (without spacers). It is selected depending on the type of repair work. For servicing parts, devices up to 110 cm are suitable, for painting the body, a movement of 1.5 m is required, for complex repairs using technology, more than 150 cm is often required.
Mains voltage. It is important to consider that many machines are designed only for 380 V. If your service does not have such a network, it is better to purchase a combined extractor (220/380 V).
Removing from stoppers. It can be mechanical or automatic (models with electric stops, remote control is an option). Car lifts of the drive typeElectromechanical - manual control mechanism. The “screw-nut” type transmission has many rubbing parts: nuts, shafts, support bearings. Because of this, increased requirements are imposed on the installation and smoothness of the floor. One of the advantages is the low price.
Electrohydraulic – each rack has a hydraulic cylinder, which is driven by an electric pump. Hydraulics can function in the most difficult operating conditions. Such a drive allows you to reduce friction many times and go without maintenance for a long time. Other advantages are noiselessness and increased speed. Pneumatic – pneumatically driven devices are connected to an air compressor (most often piston ones are chosen). Short-stroke, pick-up at a height of 500 mm to 1 meter. Ensure high productivity.
Also, when choosing a lift, it is worth considering such parameters as the country of manufacture, the distance between the posts (columns) of the structure, the length, width, and type of platform surface.
