A roller shutter manufacturer needed a goods lift to transport large items within its facility. With widths of up to two metres and lengths exceeding four metres, these items placed particular demands on the platform dimensions.
The Solution: Large-Platform Goods Lift Based on a Column Lift
Janzen Lifttechnik designed and manufactured a simplified goods lift with a platform measuring 4,500 × 2,000 mm and a load capacity of 2,000 kg. This provides sufficient space to transport large items between two production levels. The lifting height is 3,500 mm.
Both a scissor lift table and a column lift were considered for the design. As the building offered sufficient headroom, a column lift was chosen. This design allowed the lift to be integrated with relatively little structural work: only a 180 mm deep pit was required to provide level access to the platform.
Lift Shaft Structure Tailored to the Production Environment
The lift shaft was constructed on site using a sturdy square-section steel tube framework with internal sheet metal cladding. Janzen Lifttechnik supported the customer with planning and implementation to ensure that the shaft structure met the goods lift's safety requirements.
The shaft structure was complemented by two landing doors supplied by Janzen Lifttechnik. The installed electromechanical safety interlocks ensure that each door can only be opened when the platform is at the corresponding stop.
