Workshop equipment specialists, Techplus has recently added two new products to its burgeoning body shop equipment portfolio – the Astra miniLIFT.low and Astra powerLIFT.R.

The Astra miniLIFT.low can best be described as a revolutionary dual purpose 2 wheel lift for car lifting and easily moving them around the workshop/body shop.

The Astra miniLIFT.low delivers fast 2 wheel car lifting and easy movement around the workshop, making the best use of the space available. The lifts allows operators to work at the right height – up to 1.56 metres at the back and 1.1 metres at the front and delivers a significant increase in productivity.

Dave Crowder, body shop manager at Evans Halshaw, Leeds, is delighted with his new Astra miniLIFT.low lift. He commented: “This is an incredibly versatile mobile lift that is really helping our shop productivity. From fast lifting for both estimating or working on the car at the right height; to easily moving damaged or immobile cars from outside or around the body shop – this is a great piece of equipment.”

The powerLIFT.R is a revolutionary dual function 4 wheel car lift , which then easily converts into a car mover.

The main features and benefits of the powerLIFT.R are very similar to the Astra miniLIFT.low and it delivers fast 4 wheel car lifting and easy movement around the workshop, making the best use of the space available. The lifts allows operators to work at the right height – up to 1 metre and delivers a significant increase in productivity and space utilisation.

“There is nothing else on the market that provides a fast car lift to work at the right height, then converting to an easy car mover, which can be used anywhere around your workshop. This equipment comes with a 3 year warranty and is well proven with over 3,000 sold worldwide,” Hugh Brady of Techplus commented.
