Posts / SlenderTec

Our SlenderTec profiles, specially designed and hot-rolled, enable us to build lifts with narrow posts that are more resistant to torsion and flexion than other lifts made with folded sheet metal and similar materials.

The SlenderTec technology makes our posts impossible to deform, always looking like they did on the first day.

Spindle

The diameter of our spindle is 45 mm, the largest on the market. This dimension causes less friction and, therefore, less wear of "nut-spindle" assembly.

Our spindles are cold-rolled not cut. This process accredits their higher quality and useful life than those of other manufacturers. The spindles are checked one by one before assembly.

In addition, they are suspended by gravity and do not rest on anything, and are thus perfectly centred.

Carriages

The carriages are equipped with four high quality steel bearings, reinforced with Nylatron pads for better guidance and less wear than Nylon guides.

R&D&I

Our lifts are designed to be leaders in reliability. For this purpose our R&D+i department seeks maximum simplicity and robustness in its designs, from both electrical and mechanical perspectives.

For CASCOS, technology must aid reliability, developing  ingenious designs that reduce the risk of breakdowns, but that also facilitate  quick repairs.

Nuts

The nuts are specially designed to be long-lasting and are manufactured from high quality materials: RG7 bronze and Nylatron.

Thanks to our spindles with the largest diameter on the market (45 mm), the nut suffers less wear and less friction and is therefore more durable and needs less greasing.

Exclusive details for parking lifts

They all come equipped with exclusive details:

• Rubber guards on posts for opening doors.
• Protection of the spindle that prevents the operator getting dirty by touching the column.

• 

Thermal protection

Our electric motors have thermal protection to prevent overheating.

ISO 9001 quality certifications and IQNet

In addition to manufacturing with the highest quality standards ISO 9001 since 1999, our lifts are standardised by the most prestigious certification bodies: Aenor, IQnet, Bureau Veritas and TüV Nord.
