Zepros ZV 50 model has been developed to offer a strong and stable tail lift for trucks with box bodies, without unnecessary limitations of the loading capacity. The lifting capacity is 500 kg.
The platform is made of light but robust, aluminium profiles to keep the total weight as low as possible. This optimizes the vehicles loading capacity and minimizes the fuel consumption. Platforms are available in standard lengths 1290 mm, 1490 mm and 1615 mm and widths between 1310 and 1500mm. The maximum load can be carried out to 600mm from the edge of the platform nearest to the body. This is termed the load centre.
The hydraulic unit is housed in a small cubic shaped box with motor, pump, valves and oil tank integrated very neatly. This can be located outside on the vehicle frame or even inside the body (on top of the wheel arch is popular).
The ZV 50 has 2 lift cylinders for maximum load stability and a tilt cylinder hosed vertically in the stowed position due to the geometric constraints under such small vans.
