After years of preparation, the glass inclined lifts in the pedestrian and cyclist tunnels under the River Tyne are finally in operation. Archi Lift Design (Lift Design) was responsible for the final design and construction, while Liftinstituut certified these one-off elevators. Paul Britton, Managing Director of Lift Design, shares his experiences on the project and on the collaboration with the Dutch notified body.
SERAPID Lift Systems has been collaborating with Liftinstituut for over a decade. The latest project was the type examination of SERAPID's Dual Lift Drive System (DLSS). “We are delighted to work with Liftinstituut, whose expertise, recognition, and trusted market experience have been invaluable", says Klaus Wuerkner, VP of SERAPID Lift Systems.
Liftinstituut has certified the AVA Modular Lift by ARX, part of Kinetic Solutions Group (KSG). Bryan Robinson, Business Unit Director at ARX stated, “I cannot thank Liftinstituut enough for their assistance and guidance throughout the certification process. This is an unbelievably significant milestone for ARX as a company. We could not have done it without you all.” Read the story about a unique lift product and the certification process.
