CIP's Four Post style material lifts are designed for moving large heavy loads and are constructed from structural steel. These lifts utilize two (2) 100% duty-cycle brake motors mounted at the top of the unit. The low noise all-mechanical dual-drive system safely transports the carriage and the load with ease by means of four (4) lifting cables. This style of lift is most commonly used in large warehouses and distribution centers for efficiently moving product between two or more levels/floors. These lifts require very little maintenance and have increased longevity over hydraulic lifts.
Lift material up to 30,000 lbs to vertical heights up to 40'. Platform sizes up to 30' x 30'. Special sizes, capacities and travel heights may be available.
All CIP cable operated lifts are equipped with broken cable brakes to prevent the carriage from falling in the unlikely event of a cable failure. Mechanical interlocks prevent doors from being opened when the carriage is not present at that level. Dual electric brake motors secure the carriage in the event of a power failure and prevents the platform from drifting.
The carriage is available in three load pattern configurations: C, Z & 90. Standard units have expanded metal platform side panels on all on operating sides and a snap chain across the access sides.
Operation is controlled by an Illuminated Call/Send Station mounted next to each door at each level. Each station is also equipped with a large E-Stop button to stop the unit in an emergency.
