Serapid, a leader in the vertical and horizontal movement of loads is now offering a new catalog of their Linear Telescopic Lifting Columns. The catalog describes how Serapid lift systems provide a mechanical solution to elevate heavy loads. This principle is based on their Rigid Chain Technology - a chain consisting of links interlocking under a load and working like a rigid bar.
There are three different lift options available:
- ChainLift: utilizes specialized links that lock together when force is applied to make the chain as rigid as a jack.
- HD Lift: designed for applications with high cycling rates and continuous operation, with a guaranteed minimum lifetime of one million cycles under maximum load.
- LinkLift: a rigid chain mechanical actuator featuring block shaped links that stack up to form a rigid tower.
