In over 45 years, SEFAC has become one of the leading manufacturers of lifting systems for transport vehicles. Our products have been specified for several years by transportation, engineering firms, US military, aviation, and service companies, both for rail and road transport.
SEFAC USA offers a large choice of mobile columns to lift the most common vehicles of your fleet.
SEFAC screw/nut columns are intrinsically safe.
The SEFAC screw/nut system is totally irreversible by design. Every single millimeter is irreversible due to the angle of the screw pitch, which is too shallow to allow the fork to lower without mechanical input from the motor. On this basis, there is no risk of the vehicle lowering without a worker deliberately activating the motor.
We also guarantee the safety of our equipment by systematically testing each mobile column using our own test bench before release. The columns are loaded with up to 150% of their nominal loads during these tests.
A safety system must be added when hydraulics are used, as this technology is not intrinsically safe: a ratchet. This ratchet must be held against a notch approximately every 1.97 inches to allow for safe working, reducing your options proportionally.
SEFAC has available factory trained technicians up-to-date on the latest SEFAC technology & are able to respond to our customers located throughout the US.
