Stagecoach Select Stertil-Koni For New Vehicle Lifts

23/07/24 | 2024

Stagecoach has invested in a new set of Stertil-Koni's wireless mobile column lifts as part of their workshop upgrade for their bus depot in Winchester. The company has also purchased two additional sets of column lifts for their Guildford depot. 


The UK’s largest transport operator have been working with market-leading lift specialist Stertil-Koni since 2005. Choosing its column lifts for the numerous benefits they offer for bus maintenance: easy repositioning to quickly adjust the workshop layout for different tasks or requirements, and fast lifting and lowering to boost productivity and reduce vehicle downtime.

The cable-free design of the ST1075FWA column lifts ordered for the Winchester depot allows technicians to quickly set up the lifts without connecting cables, streamlining workflow and saving valuable time and effort. Furthermore, with no cables on the floor, Stagecoach mechanics have complete access around vehicles, allowing for thorough inspections and repairs without any hindrances.

Each of the mobile columns offer a lifting capacity of 7.5 tonnes, providing an overall safe lifting capacity of 30 tonnes for the set of four individual lifts. The mobile columns incorporate Stertil-Koni’s revolutionary ebright Smart Control System, allowing workshop engineers to operate the columns individually, in pairs, or in any other combination from any column in the set. Positioning of the mobile columns is also totally flexible, enabling them to be used in any configuration around a vehicle. 

Featuring full-colour touch screen consoles, the ebright Smart Control System has been designed and developed to simplify operation by providing maximum visual information about every lifting operation - all at the fingertips of the workshop engineers. 

The Stertil-Koni ST1075FWA heavy-duty lift is powered by long-life deep cycle batteries which provide optimum performance for at least a week on average before recharging is necessary. Additionally, battery life is prolonged because, unlike a screw-lift, power is only used to raise a vehicle therefore less time is spent recharging the lift. Charging is carried out by plugging each individual lift into a 230v single phase supply. 

Supplied complete with adjustable width forks, the Stertil-Koni ST1075FWA easily meets the challenge of lifting vehicles with differing tyre widths to ensure maximum versatility.
