Heavy duty vehicle lift manufacturer Stertil-Koni has announced that the full-color, touchscreen console, known as the ebright Smart Control System, has been incorporated into the company’s Diamondlift in ground vehicle lifting system.

The ebright Smart Control System has been integrated into the company’s battery-operated cable mobile column lifts as well as the ultra-shallow, full-rise, axle-engaging in-ground scissor-lifting system, the Ecolift.

Through ebright, technicians and managers can see in real time how the lifts are being used, observe warning and service alerts, and monitor the lift’s motor run timer.

“Stertil-Koni has brought the very best in engineering, digital control and continuous operator feedback to heavy duty vehicle maintenance shops across North America with our distinctive, 7-inch, full-color touch-screen control system,” said Jean DellAmore, Stertil-Koni president.  “Now, we are extremely pleased to bring the ebright Smart Control System to the Diamondlift—delivering intuitive ease-of-use in an extremely familiar, operator- friendly format that resembles today’s most popular tablet devices.” 

Stertil-Koni has recently made several new changes to its Diamondlift system in addition to the ebright upgrade.

Additions include an optional continuous recess system that allows the bolster to recess flush to the floor anywhere in the horizontal range of piston travel.  The company has debuted a differential adapter, an accessory that “cradles” the differential and is self-centering thanks to spring loaded ball bearings (meaning it centers itself underneath the differential), making the setup and use quick, easy, convenient, and safe.

The Diamondlift is a high-pressure in ground telescopic piston lifting system designed to accommodate vehicles with extremely low ground clearances. It has a lifting capacity up to 35,000 pounds per piston, or a total of 105,000 pounds in the three-piston configuration. It is available in two versions: “cassette” and “frame."
