Heavy Vehicle Hoists for Mines

We understand that safety is paramount for mine operations, and it’s also one of the biggest factors to consider when selecting the right heavy vehicle hoists for mines.

Genesis Equipment’s Heavy vehicle mobile column lifts are highly recommended for the mining industry thanks to their robust design and extensive range of safety features which come as standard.

At Genesis Equipment we supply heavy-vehicle mobile column lifts from a market leader Stertil-Koni – which meet stringent safety standards and are easy to use.

Operating and positioning heavy-vehicle mobile column lifts has also never been simpler, thanks to Stertil-Koni’s eBright Smart Control System.

These include:

  • ALI and CE certified – independent testing and quality assurance

  • Mechanical locks are only 35mm apart (industry best) and engage at just 125mm on the ST1085 and ST1100 models which is considerably lower to the ground than other brands
  • Built in locking system means axle stands aren’t required
  • An emergency stop button is located on every column
  • Any column can become the master control

If you’ve had concerns about how best to maintain and service your heavy vehicles for your mine operations, mobile column lifts offer significant advantages and greater versatility when compared to 2-post and 4-post lifts.
