Aerospace Sub-Grade Engine Lift with Automated Locking Pins

Autoquip developed a custom pit-mounted engine lift designed to raise heavy engines from a sub-grade service area to an optimal working height for maintenance. This solution improves technician ergonomics, enhances safety, and integrates seamlessly with the facility’s existing iris-style floor opening. Equipped with a circular platform for balanced engine handling, the system also features automated locking pins that secure the lift platform during operation—adding a critical layer of safety during engine transfer and service.
