Hoist system
Current personal hoists have a finite range to their
vertical motion which is limited by their
mechanical arrangement. Our ground breaking
slide way configuration allows unlimited vertical
travel.
The stiff and lightweight aluminium extrusion, and
a toothed belt drive can be made long enough to
suit any application. The powerful sealed electric
drive unit allows the unit to be used outdoors and
even submerged.
A key aspect of the project involved producing
and testing prototype drive units. These were
produced using production materials and
processes to ensure the tests represented the
performance of the final product.
Personal hoists give
freedom to access locations
and undertake activities
that are made challenging
by reduced mobility.
The ergonomic self
draining seat, has integral
antibacterial/anti fungal
foam padding.
Our network of trusted suppliers and
manufacturers proved vital, and allowed the client
to procure short samples of custom profiled
extrusions to our design.
The hoist drive system has
integrated inertial safety
brakes that protect the
user automatically.
