PLS Traverse Trolleys
The PLS Traverse Trolley, together with the rail profiles, is what makes up our XY system. An XY system offers maximum flexibility and freedom. Furniture changes? No problem. Want to move to any place within the bounderies of a room? No problem.
An XY system is able to provide an unlimited number of lifting places within a room, enabling a person to be lifted from practically anywhere within four walls.
This is achieved by installing two parallel tracks on each side of the room, either on the ceiling or on opposite walls. A moving section of track then runs at 90° to the parallel rails, the Traverse rail. The components that allow the Traverse rail to slide up and down the parallel tracks, are the Traverse Trolleys. A total of two Traverse Trolleys are thus required , one on either side of the Traverse rail.
The resulting construction bears some resemblance to the letter H, therefore it is sometimes being referred to as a H system.
Suitable for A profile.
Suitable for C profile and heavy loads.
Suitable for D profile and very heavy loads.
Suitable for A profile, for recessed fitting of an x-axis rail in between the two y-axis rails that make up an xy-system.
Suitable for C profile, for recessed fitting of an x-axis rail in between the two y-axis rails that make up an xy-system.
Suitable for D profile, for recessed fitting of an x-axis rail in between the two y-axis rails that make up an xy-system.
- If distance between parallels is greater than or equal to 2,8 m, a 2500 mm U-profile* has to be used.
- If distance between parallels is greater than or equal to 3,5 m, a 3000 mm U-profile* has to be used.
- For loads above 150 kg a high profile traverse rail with a heavy duty traverse trolly is recommended as bending in the rail causes malfunction of the transit coupling.
- If the span between parallels is larger than 4 m an additional parallel rail is recommended.
* For bigger spans a U-profile is available to put over the traverse rail. These come in two standard lengths: 2500 mm and 3000 mm.
