A full-colour touch screen control console available on its wireless mobile column lifts, engineered for intuitive, ease-of-use and maximum visual information about the lifting process.

With this innovation Stertil-Koni wants to bring customers into the 21^stcentury. We live in a digital world why not on the workshop floor as well?

Called ebright, this smart new touch-screen technology will initially be available on the Stertil-Koni EARTHLIFT, widely recognised as the industry’s first hydraulic “green” wireless mobile column lift. The new version of EARTHLIFT is available with a lifting capacity per column of either 8.5 tons or 10 tons (depending on the model) and is ANSI/ALI-ALCTV 2011 certified. What now further differentiates the latest model of EARTHLIFT is Stertil-Koni’s new

ebright Smart Control System, the benefits of which include:

• A high resolution, brightly illuminated, full-colour, 7” screen

• Touch screen control, even when the technician is wearing gloves

• Optimal connectivity and stability with super modern wireless MESH network for Continuous Active Channel Search
  

• Owner/user configurable options, including choice of language and personalised ID key to protect against unauthorised use

• Presentation of all relevant information at a glance

• Up to 32 mobile columns fully synchronised in a single set

Stertil-Koni anticipates including the ebright Smart Control System in all new wireless mobile column lifts shipped in the first half of 2015.

Marketing & Sales Director, Mr. B. Stapensea commented that, “We at Stertil-Koni are always looking for the next level in product performance for our customers. The Stertil-Koni ebright Smart Control System is not only intuitive, it makes operating a Stertil-Koni column lift a real experience. The modern touch screen control is easy to operate and provides a wealth of on- screen information useful to workshop personnel. Above all the ebright EARTHLIFT offers optimum flexibility and efficiency with operation of up to 32 columns in one set.  My advice is, take the ebright experience today and you will never look back to conventional controls for your heavy duty lifting”.

For added safety and performance, the ebright Smart Control System also shows how many columns are in the Stertil-Koni wireless mobile column set being used; the load on each individual column in the set; the battery status of each column and when the mechanical locks are engaged.

Stertil-Koni selected the EARTHLIFTas the ideal vehicle lift to debut its ebright Smart Control System because the lift itself has established new standards in heavy duty lifting. For example, true to its name, this award-winning lifting system features columns that are produced with components that are recyclable. The Active Energy Retrieval System (AERS) allows operators to achieve 35% more lifting cycles at maximum lifting load. In addition, EARTHLIFT uses a closed hydraulic system that contains bio-degradable oil and the batteries are 100% recyclable.
