Vario Lifting Unit Shuttle
The Vario Lifting Unit is used with the station lifter, skid lifter and shuttle.

Fields of application

The Vario Lifting Unit is used with the station lifter, skid lifter and shuttle. The unit is driven by an electro motor with a gearless drive. As a result there are no interferences between the lifting units. Software synchronizes several drives. The Vario lifting unit has a high lifting velocity (240 mm/sec.) and a high repeatability +/- 0.5 mm). Through the reduction of components and bought-in parts one only needs to store a minor amount of spare parts. The unit is flexible, quickly mounted and easily installed and set up. The Vario lifting unit can be ordered as a stand alone system including a complete control on request.

Application Shuttle

The upstroke columns can be extended, reduced and arranged variably within the station. For a smooth component pick up the speed will be reduced. The counterweight system and adjustable pull-shaft modules are inapplicable i.e. no longer necessary.

Lifting-Steping-Shuttle

The shuttle is available as Type Series SH60 and SH80 with a track width between 500mm and 800mm. In lowered position a lower overall height can be achieved, e.g. upstroke 600mm, height 550mm. The moving speed averages 1m/s and the stroke speed averages 150mm/s.

Our proven Shuttle System was completely overhauled in 2007 in order to meet the requirements of modern production facilities.
