Automobile (Car) Elevators
At Canton we understand how important reliability is as we have life long experience in installing and working with different types of car lifts.
We have excellent relations with high quality suppliers in Europe, both for Hydraulic Kits (Morris Italy) and MRL Traction Machines (Montanari Italy). This brings us into a unique position in the market, enabling us to provide the solution that best suits every project, and provide the car lift solution best suited for your project. and Developers the Canton Passenger Elevator range is very popular as a versatile design which can be incorporated easily into New and Existing buildings.
Car lifts operates in the same way as a normal passenger lifts, however instead of transporting only you, a car lift transports you and your car to your designated floor in a multi storey car park. The operation of accessing the lift can be carried out by a standard call station system or by utilising the RFID Access control technology. Thus, you do not have move from your car until you reach your car space.
Types of car lifts we offer
CAE240 Hyd - Hydraulic
CAE240 MR - Traction with Machine room above lift hoist way
CAE240 MRL - Traction with no Machine room required
Hydraulic car lifts provide spatial benefits as the shaft size required is smaller than traction lifts.
However, Hydraulic car lifts do operate at a slower speed (standard 0.30m/s to 0.50m/s) and generally are more suitable for car lift installations with a lower number of stops served.
Traction car lifts use a traction machine and can reach higher speeds (1.0m/s) and are more energy efficient relative to their performance compared to hydraulic car lifts.
MRL gearless traction car lifts use a traction machine mounted inside the lift shaft removing the need for a separate machine room, thus saving valuable space.
