OverviewThe Lifter-930 is a custom-engineered linear tender lift developed for motor yacht refits and new builds. It provides a compact, vertically aligned platform extension for stern platforms, enabling beach-club style access at water level and safe launching/recovery of heavy tenders and watercraft.
Design and OperationThe system employs an engineered linear movement instead of scissor or pantograph mechanisms. This architecture reduces transom-space requirements while ensuring continuous horizontal stabilization and precise vertical alignment during deployment and recovery. The drive and linkage layout is optimized for minimal intrusion into the yacht hull and reliable operation in marine conditions.
Load Capacity and SafetyCertified for an operational lifting capacity up to 2,400 kg, the Lifter-930 is structurally engineered to resist peak loads up to 4,400 kg, providing significant safety margin for hydrodynamic and asymmetric loads encountered during stern immersion or wave action. Safety features include synchronized motion control and structural reinforcement of critical members.
Materials and MechanicalsConstructed in marine-grade AISI 316 stainless steel with custom-machined internal components to maximize bending resistance. The electro-hydraulic drive integrates an auto-regulating flow-control valve to maintain synchronized movement under asymmetrical loading and ensure smooth, repeatable operation in a saltwater environment.
ApplicationsDesigned for high-end custom motor yacht refits and new builds where compact footprint, high lifting capacity and precise operation are required. Typical applications include stern platform extensions, beach-club configurations at water level, and launching/recovery of heavy tenders and PWCs.
