Features
AUTOdrive
Operating the lifting function of our rescue and work equipment with pure muscle power can be very exhausting, especially over long distances. Thanks to AUTOdrive, you can use any commercially available screwdriver to effortlessly manage even long cable lengths and heavy loads.
RATCHdrive
Operating the lifting function of our rescue and work equipment manually makes it possible to lift large loads, but can be very strenuous over long distances. With RATCHdrive, you can drive your descender device directly and manually without gear reduction, allowing you to effortlessly overcome longer distances and large loads with pure muscle power.
WHEELsafe
Most of our rescue and work equipment is equipped with a handwheel. During an abseiling process, the handwheel rotates at high speed, causing extreme forces to occur. WHEELsafe's design ensures that injuries to the hands or other parts of the body are excluded. The use of closed handwheels without openings or protruding parts (e.g. handles) ensures maximum safety.
TORQUEsafe
Most rescue and work devices are equipped with our patented TORQUEsafe technology. This technology consists of a coupling that is integrated between the drive and the device. This coupling is used to dissipate excessive forces that could otherwise pose a danger to the user and the device.
STOPsafe
A large number of our descender devices are equipped with the patented STOPsafe backstop. STOPsafe ensures that the descender can only move in the set direction. When a person or weight is lifted, STOPsafe automatically prevents unintentional descending.
SEALsafe
All rope devices are designed according to the SEALsafe system. This means that the three components - sheave, gearbox and brake - are each housed in a separately encapsulated chamber. SEALsafe prevents lubricants from the gearbox contaminating the brake linings or dust from the rope getting into the gearbox.
