Features and Benefits

  • Modular Construction
    In general modular construction can speed up project completion. The ability to adjust equipment quickly and easily with lifting columns enhances efficiency.
  • Lifting Speeds
    Up to 100 mm/s
  • High Compression and Tensile Forces 5 to 25 kN
    Suitable for low-speed, high-load applications. Trapezoidal screws are well-suited for applications involving heavy loads and relatively low speeds.
  • Enclosed and Low-Maintenance Design
    Enclosed columns offer better protection against dust, debris, and moisture, increasing reliability and performance, especially in demanding environments.
  • Admissible Off-Center Load Pick Up
    Are suitable for situations where loads cannot always be perfectly centered under the lifting mechanism, such as with medical equipment, industrial workstations, or height-adjustable desks where components may be heavier on one side.
  • Elimination of External Brakes
    Self-locking mechanism at single-start trapezoidal screw in standstill
  • Single- and Multi-Stage Design
    Good for limited height adjustments this design is ideal for applications like basic height-adjustable desks or workstations where a wide range of motion isn't required.
  • Short Safety Nut at Single-Stage Design with Trapezoidal Screw
    Reduced Risk of Buckling: In systems utilizing screw-nut mechanisms (like those with trapezoidal screws), the screw is subjected to downward forces. this design minimizes the risk of the screw buckling.
  • Comprehensive Accessories Available

PHOENIX lifting columns move forces of 0.5 t to 2.5 t.

This economical system combines screw jack and guiding in one. The possibility to take up eccentric forces as well, is the characteristic of the PHOENIX lifting column.

The compact design facilitates an extensive possible field of application. 

PHOENIX lifting columns are used multi-purposely in the mechanical engineering, the aerospace as well as the pharmaceutical industry.

Features and processing

• Design according to your customer needs (lift, head plate, driving motor, IP protection class IP54 or 55 - other protection classes on request …)
• Eccentric loads (outreach) permitted
• Guiding and screw jack in one, thus external guides can be omitted
• Sectional tubes made of  anodised aluminium
• Vertical and horizontal application possible
• Pressure and tensile load permitted

Pfaff-silberblau - Lifting column with ABB Robotics

We are thrilled to announce that we recently participated at the ABB Robotics Ecosystem Program Workshop. Our team successfully delivered a first lifting column prototype that promises to create intelligent motion solutions for the Robotics market. 
Stay tuned for the next steps! We’re just getting started, and there’s so much more to come. Whether you’re a cobot manufacturer, a system integrator or a curious learner intrigued by the future, this is something you should not miss. 

CAD & go

Our CAD application allows you to access 2D / 3D CAD data in various formats. Alternatively, you can transfer CAD data directly into your CAD system via our Click2CAD Toolbox.

Technical University of Dresden uses PHOENIX Telescopic Lifting Columns

As part of a modernisation project, the Heinz-Schönfeld lecture hall of the Technical University of Dresden was equipped with a new blackboard adjustment system.

Instead of the cable winch system dating from the 1960s, a solution from Columbus McKinnon Engineered Products with PHOENIX telescopic lifting columns PH36 of the Pfaff-silberblau brand was implemented. With the new system, all five blackboard panels can now be automatically raised and lowered by 1,300 mm at a speed of 2 m/min at the push of a button. The system is very simple to operate. Each board in the lecture hall can be electrically moved individually via its own control element.

The Columbus McKinnon Engineered Products system operates silently, which is a great advantage during events and lectures. Thanks to their backlash-free sliding guides, they guarantee absolute stability even when fully extended.
