MRL (Machine Room Less) Lifts

MRL Lifts (machine-room-less lifts) are lifts that donā€™t require a separate room at installation for extra machinery or systems. The machine room is a separate room that is positioned close to the lift to house all the large machinery such as large motors, pumps and oil reserves. Gartec are the leading UK supplier and installer of platform MRL lifts.

PLATFORM MRL LIFTS

Platform MRL lifts are what we specialise in. Platform lifts use a simple ā€˜screw and nutā€™ drive system (read more about this here) so donā€™t have large machinery or oil pits to contain. The machinery is all stored in the mast side of the lift, behind the control panel. All our drawings and plan views include the machinery space. This means that, unlike non MRL lifts, we donā€™t need a separate room as well as the lift space.

TheĀ ARITCO PUBLICLIFT ACCESSĀ is our most flexible and versatile of the MRL lifts. Choose from standard passenger, external or light goods features to tailor to different environments and requirements with a small footprint.

TheĀ Gartec 9000Ā is a cabin version platform MRL lift, which looks and feels like a conventional lift but takes up minimal space in the building and doesnā€™t require a machine room.

TRACTION MRL LIFTS

Traction lifts use a belt drive system and a counterweight,Ā explained in our blog here. Often traction lifts will have a machine room to house the machinery, such as the large motor.

Gartec traction lifts ā€“ theĀ VIMEC E10Ā in particular ā€“ are MRL lifts, giving you the power, speed and benefits of a traditional lift or traction lift, but saving space and budget.
