Enerpac will introduce its new Level Lift for safe and synchronous lifting from multiple joints and its new S&W X-Edition torque wrenches to the Australasia market at AIMEX 2015 in Sydney this September.

Enerpac will also showcase its Pow’R-LOCK auto-locking jack and stand, which was launched to market at the end of last year, along with its UltraSlim torque wrenches – part of the Slimline range – which came out in the first quarter of this year.

The LL-Series Level Lift System is designed for safe and even lifting and lowering of unbalanced loads, providing modularity which lends itself to many applications in the mining, construction, power generation and oil and gas markets.

These include equipment maintenance on excavators, material handlers, dozers, trucks, bridge construction and maintenance, slab lifts and turbine installation and maintenance.

Featuring what Enerpac calls a “robust yet simple” design, the fully configured and assembled Level Lift System – which includes a ZE4 pump, hoses, gauges and cart – can control up to four lift points at one time without complicated electronics or sensors at each lift point.

During operation, uneven loads can be moved evenly as the Level Lift valve sends a fixed volume of oil to each cylinder while lifting or lowering.

Regardless of the distribution of weight in the application, or the resulting pressure at each lift point, the Level Lift System strokes each cylinder by the same amount. Each cylinder must have the same effective area.

Enerpac said its latest X-Editions of Enerpac’s S square drive and W series low profile hexagon cassette series featured a “stronger, more durable and safer” connection between tool body and manifold, along with a dual plane swivel manifold that features interlocking arms to increase robustness and safety.

Both the new square and hexagonal drive X-Edition wrenches also feature tough upgraded handles featuring one-piece design with metal inlays for positive location, as well as an optional ergonomic straight handle design to ensure safety and avoid potential pinch point situations for operators.
