Synchronised Automotive Vehicle Lifter

get in touch
the brief

To invent and supply a bespoke lifting system capable to safely raising a sports car from two points. AIE developed a unique system to raise and lower the vehicle from 150mm to 1100mm. The system used two lifters, 1 front and 1 rear that are linked via continuous feedback from laser positioning devices. The system is fully compliant to the relevant vehicle lifting legislation BS EN 1493 2010.
