Warwickshire Travel Chooses Stertil-Koni Column Lifts For Maintenance

Warwickshire Travel Ltd, a family-run passenger transport company, has chosen Stertil-Koni’s reliable mobile column lifts to streamline its outdoor maintenance operations.

Based in Princethorpe, the company operates a modern fleet of coaches, buses, and minibuses, ensuring its vehicles remain in top condition for safe, comfortable, and dependable transport. Due to height restrictions within their workshop, the company carries out essential maintenance outdoors. To support these operations, Stertil-Koni supplied cabled mobile column lifts with specialised protective covers, designed to perform reliably in challenging outdoor environments.

The supplied lifts consist of four Stertil-Koni ST1075FSA mobile columns, each capable of lifting 7.5 tonnes for a combined lifting capacity of 30 tonnes. This makes the lifts ideal for the rigorous demands of servicing large commercial vehicles like buses and coaches.

A key benefit of the columns is the ebright Smart Control System, which allows engineers to operate the lifts individually or in unison via user-friendly touch screen consoles. This ensures efficient and hassle-free operation while maximising productivity.

Safety and precision are at the core of the lifts’ design. Each column features an independent mechanical locking system to securely hold vehicles in place and a microprocessor-controlled synchronisation feature that ensures smooth, precise lifting. Combined with the fast-lifting speed - up to a height of 1.85 metres in just 75 seconds - the columns enhance operational efficiency.

The cabled lifts are powered by a standard 415V supply and equipped with heavy-duty communication cables, ensuring robust connectivity. Additionally, Stertil-Koni’s maintenance-free synthetic runner wheels and hydraulic pallet truck mechanism make the columns easy to manoeuvre and maintain.

For Warwickshire Travel, the specialised covers on the lifts are an essential feature, offering protection against the elements and ensuring reliable performance during regular outdoor servicing operations. This tailored solution supports their ongoing commitment to maintaining a spotless and well-maintained fleet, reinforcing their reputation for customer satisfaction and safety.
