Get ready for the
electric future with the
BendPak EV2400SL
A
utomotive executives believe electric vehicles will
account for more than half their sales by 2030. Some
estimates place the number of electric vehicles in the
U.S. over the next eight years at more than 25 million, or
just over 8 percent of all vehicles in operation. You may
think this isn't relevant if you don't work on Tesla cars,
but traditional OEMs and startups are also rolling out
new EVs, including electric versions of the popular Ford
F-150 and Chevrolet Silverado pickup trucks.
If you want to continue working on the cars, trucks and vans of the
future, you need to prepare now. Thankfully, vehicle equipment leader
BendPak is ready to help.
BendPak's new EV2400SL EV battery pack and powertrain
lifting system helps technicians safely and efficiently remove, service
and install heavy electric vehicle battery packs from a wide range of
electric vehicles. And thanks to an innovative design that supports a
full line of available accessories, it also doubles as a powertrain lift for
internal combustion vehicles, making it a versatile choice throughout
the shop right away.
" While electric vehicles are hot right now, the majority of vehicles on
the road will continue to use internal combustion powertrains for a
long time to come, " says Jeff Kritzer, BendPak executive vice president.
" That's why we're designing equipment that maximizes return on
investment by supporting service on both electric and gas vehicles. "
The EV2400SL is compact and portable with oversized urethane casters
to provide low rolling resistance and unparalleled maneuverability
around the shop. Equipped with proprietary zero-throw casters on
all four corners, the platform can be moved easily in any direction.
Adjustable screw jacks on each corner provide effortless pitch and
roll adjustments for more precise alignment of high-voltage batteries,
engine and drivetrain assemblies, fuel tanks and more. Once in place,
a foot-operated single-action tandem floor lock prevents inadvertent
rolling and creates a stable workspace.
Like the electric vehicles it supports, the EV2400SL lifting system
is battery-powered. It uses a maintenance-free 12-volt deep-cycle
battery featuring proprietary, high-density grid technology precisely
engineered to deliver outstanding performance. A fully automatic
three-stage battery charger offers connect-and-forget operation to
protect against overcharging.
With a press of the button on the pendant controller, the EV2400SL
elevates to more than 6 feet in less than 20 seconds. It supports
2,400 lbs. on its oversized 40-inch by 60-inch cushioned platform.
Sixteen recessed mounting anchors in the platform tabletop accommodate
a variety of modular fixtures, adapters and accessories that
can be added, repositioned or removed as needed to handle engines,
transmissions, gas tanks, transaxle assemblies and more. An optional
side-shift deck uses a ball transfer system to allow the table to move
side-to-side for additional adjustability and precise alignment. n
