Details

Installing large aerospace components demands fine position control and repeatability. This Alum-a-Lift features wide-span powered forks with independent height and width adjustment, allowing for precise translation and rotation about multiple axes.

Previously reliant on an overhead hoist, the addition of this lift eliminated the need for specially trained crane operators as well as work stoppages caused by waiting for hoist availability.
