Hydraulic drum cranes: the ideal solution for lifting heavy vehicles
Recessed jack bridge technology for workshops
The hydraulic drum bridges are now an essential solution for workshops specialising in the maintenance and repair of heavy goods vehicles, buses and industrial machinery. Designed to offer maximum securitya optimum ergonomics and a high lifting capacityThis equipment makes it possible to work efficiently while guaranteeing perfect vehicle stability.
Thanks to their innovative design, these lifting systems fit neatly into workshop pits and offer a high degree of flexibility. exceptional ease of use. Whether for regular maintenance operations or more complex jobs, drum cranes make technicians' work easier and improve productivity.
Lifting adapted to all types of heavy vehicles
Optimised load capacity
The drum lifts are designed to lift heavy loads in complete safety. Depending on the model and configuration, they can be fitted with several hydraulic cylinders to adapt the lifting capacity to your needs. This versatility makes them particularly suitable for fleets of transport vehicles, lorries, buses or public works machinery.
Flexible and efficient installation
One of the main advantages of barrel bridges is their seamless integration in the workshop. Unlike mobile cranes or traditional pits, this equipment offers a high degree of flexibility. better accessibility and free up workspace. Their installation, generally made to measure, guarantees perfect adaptation to existing infrastructures.
Ergonomics and safety: equipment designed for HGV maintenance professionals
An optimised working environment
Working on heavy vehicles requires a high level of safe, ergonomic workstation. Barrel bridges are designed to meet these requirements:
- Intuitive operation for precise lifting control.
- Automatic positioning of drums depending on the type of vehicle.
- Freeing up floor space when the jacks are retracted.
This equipment improves technician comfortreduce physical exertion and contribute to the prevention of musculoskeletal disorders (MSD).
Enhanced safety for operators and vehicles
Lifting heavy vehicles imposes strict safety standards. That's why drum cranes are designed to guarantee a high level of safety. maximum stability thanks to a robust structure and integrated safety features. Among the key elements ensuring this reliability are :
- A perfect load distribution to avoid any imbalance.
- A cylinder synchronisation to ensure even lifting.
- From automatic locking systems to prevent accidental movement.
Heavy-duty lifting solution that complies with regulatory requirements
Hydraulic drum cranes comply with current standards, in particular the European standard EN 1493This compliance is essential for workshops wishing to equip themselves with equipment that is reliable, durable and compliant with legal requirements. This compliance is essential for workshops wishing to equip themselves with equipment that is reliable, durable and compliant with legal obligations.
A profitable investment for workshops
In addition to their many technical and ergonomic advantages, the hydraulic drum bridges are a strategic choice for car maintenance professionals. Their sturdiness and ease of use mean they can be used to reduce response timesoptimise operations and increase workshop profitability.
Why choose a drum bridge for your workshop?
- Productivity gains thanks to rapid installation and efficient lifting.
- An optimised workspace ergonomics and safety.
- A sustainable solution adapted to the demands of modern workshops.
A single point of contact for the supply, installation and commissioning of your lifting equipment
Whether it is for the creation, the extension or the renovation of your maintenance workshop, you have a unique interlocutor to manage your entire project (supply of your lifting equipment, site meeting, realization of the civil engineering works, installation, commissioning and training of your personnel).
Reduce your workshop downtime to a minimum
Thanks to our unique installation process on the market, identical to that of our prefabricated steel pits, we ensure a very fast installation service without any bad surprises. The planning of our intervention will be communicated to you upstream and will be respected. You will then be able to manage at best the immobilization of your workshop during the duration of the work and to prepare its reopening.
Reduce considerably your civil engineering work and costs
The unique design of the chassis of our shaft cranes allows us to make much narrower and shallower excavations. This reduces the amount of civil engineering work to be done. In addition to that, we do not have to build an invert. The design of a concrete invert is a costly and difficult task that requires extreme precision. Its realization is complex because the invert must be perfectly smooth and level over a large length, which generates important costs which can soar in the event of a fault.
The "classic" installation of jack-up bridges in Europe :
All the players on the market offering embedded drum cranes install their solution either with a frame and a concrete "pit", or with a complete frame placed on an invert and a cassette attached from below. This type of installation involves considerable civil engineering work and costs: in particular the obligation to make a very wide and deep excavation to be able to go down into it during the installation, but above all it involves the creation of a concrete invert where the cassette of the jack bridge will be placed and fixed.
