FLUX VECTOR LIFT DRIVE

The Vacon Drive is our standard drive system and is used up to 1.6m/s. This compact unit is designed and manufactured to a high specification in Finland and is used world-wide in many industrial applications.

We also use the Ziehl Drive from 1m/s – 2.5m/s for geared and gearless systems. The Ziehl Drive with a direct floor approach will give fast brake to brake time required in today’s modern office blocks.

Both drives are proven in the lift industry and have the following features:

DC DRIVE CONTROL

Our preferred drive for use with DC Motors is the Magnetek DSD412 DCSCR Drive. This drive utilises digital technology to give a smooth controlled ride – it is a well-established brand within the lift industry both in the UK and abroad.

BUCHER VVVF
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

We can also incorporate the Bucher VVVF Hydraulic Drive System within our control system. We use special cards to control the sequence of release of the contactors and drive, thus ensuring the reliability of the drive well in to the future.
