Our range of equipment allows us to lift or lower single loads well in excess of 10,000 t weight. It includes a large number of hydraulic jacks, pumps, control units, monitoring and modular lifting/jacking frames like: lifting towers, generator lifting frames and turntables, presenting the capability and flexibility to perform virtually any project requiring lifting, lowering or horizontal jacking.
Devices like hydraulic coilers, emergency devices, sensor controlled measuring units and other system completing installations are available.
Apart, the control systems are designed to meet the client´s requirement for every project. Connections and adaptations of clients control systems are possible.
VSL can also design and supply custom-built hydraulic systems for special applications.
Piston strokes vary between 160mm and 550mm, depending on the type of unit.
Special Hydraulic Equipment
Our equipment park includes a large number and variety of hydraulic jacks with piston-strokes between 160 and 550 mm and capacities from 100 to 5,800kN. In case of exceptional loads and/or required high speed tandem units can be applied.Devices like hydraulic coilers, emergency devices, sensor controlled measuring units and other system completing installations are available.

Piston strokes vary between 160mm and 550mm, depending on the type of unit.
- The figures given in the table are also valid for Strand Moving Units of Type SMU.
- Capacity is based on grade 270 strands, according to ASTMA A 416-90/A and a safety factor of s=2,5 with respect to the minimum breaking load of the strands.
- Weights quoted are for the basic version of the lifting units.
