Stertil-Koni Supplies Mobile Column Lifts to Truck & Bus Wales & West

Truck & Bus Wales & West, a Volvo truck and bus dealer based in Bristol, has invested in an additional set of Stertil-Koni mobile column lifts – reinforcing its commitment to safe, reliable maintenance across a wide range of commercial vehicles.

This latest purchase builds on a strong partnership, following a 2024 order for nine sets of Stertil-Koni lifts across five dealerships. The repeat investment highlights the continued performance and reliability of Stertil-Koni’s industry-leading lifting technology.

The new delivery includes four ST1075FWA wireless mobile column lifts – each capable of lifting 7.5 tonnes – giving a combined lifting capacity of up to 30 tonnes per set. These heavy-duty truck lifts provide the team with even greater flexibility when servicing a wide range of vehicles.

Mobility is one of the biggest advantages for the workshop. The columns can be repositioned easily around different vehicles, helping to free up space and adapt the layout as workload demands shift. This dynamic setup reduces downtime and keeps operations running smoothly.

The wireless design has also brought significant benefits. With no cables to manage, setup is faster, trip hazards are eliminated, and more time is spent on maintenance rather than configuration. Stertil-Koni’s lifts operate using an advanced wireless mesh network, offering seamless and robust connectivity between columns, even in busy workshop environments. This ensures consistently reliable communication, a key advantage over other wireless systems.

Each column is equipped with Stertil-Koni’s advanced ebright Smart Control System, featuring a full-colour touchscreen that allows engineers to operate the lifts individually, in pairs, or as a full set – from any column.

The intuitive interface and cable-free environment contribute to improved safety and efficiency, giving engineers clear control and visibility at every stage of the lifting process.

Powering the columns are long-life deep cycle batteries, designed to deliver up to a full week of operation on a single charge. As energy is only consumed during the lifting phase – not while lowering – the system is highly efficient and well suited to busy workshops.

Supplied via Stertil-Koni’s long-standing distributor, Imperial Garage Equipment in Bristol, the new lorry and bus lifts are helping the workshop work more safely, efficiently, and with complete confidence in their equipment.
