The HF 3 hydraulic single-cylinder, in-ground retractable lift is specifically designed for lifting industrial forklift-type vehicles and other special load-bearing devices. This robust and reliable lifting system offers an excellent solution for workshops requiring high-precision, space-saving, and extremely safe lifting capabilities. Manufactured by J.A. Becker & Söhne, the HF 3 model follows the philosophy of „non-standard products,” guaranteeing outstanding quality and long service life.
The HF 3 lift incorporates several technical solutions that ensure maximum safety and flexibility during the most varied lifting tasks:
Redundant Design: Two independent hydraulic cylinders ensure safe operation. This redundancy is critically important in high-load industrial environments, as the system remains stable even in the event of a potential failure.
Full Stroke Length Controlled Anti-Tilt System: Prevents unwanted rotation of the loads throughout the entire range of motion of the lift, thereby increasing the safety of the operator and the equipment.
Torque Absorption by Auxiliary Guide Rods: All torques resulting from the load are absorbed by auxiliary guide rods. This design minimizes structural stress and ensures the long-term stability of the lift, even under asymmetrical loading.
Flexible Load Handling Systems: The lift is to be installed into a galvanized, multi-functional foundation frame. This frame allows for the quick and easy exchange of various load handling devices, enabling the lift to be effortlessly adapted to different types of industrial forklift variations.
Design Flush with the Floor: The load handling element can be retracted completely flush with the floor, ensuring unobstructed and barrier-free access to the work area when the lift is not in use.
The precise engineering solutions of the HF 3 lift are supported by the following technical parameters:
| Parameter | Value | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Load Capacity | 3,000 kg | Maximum Load Capacity |
| Lifting Height | 1,880 mm | Maximum lifting height |
| Installation Depth | 2.450 mm | Required pit depth |
| Oil quantity | 10 liter | The amount required to fill the hydraulic system |
| Connection Power | 2.2 kW | Electric drive power |
The installation of the HF 3 lift takes place in a special foundation frame which ensures the stability of the structure and its flush integration with the floor. The galvanized, multifunctional frame is a key element of the system's flexibility. This frame makes it possible to adapt the lift to various industrial forklift models simply by using easily replaceable load handling elements. This modularity guarantees that the equipment will meet changing production or logistics requirements in the long term.
The lift is ideally suited for environments where space-saving and fast, safe vehicle handling are essential. The two independent hydraulic cylinders and the anti-rotation mechanism provide an unparalleled level of safety, setting the HF 3 apart from standard solutions available on the market.
