Case study · KIS
The rollers that guide the lift.
The project
KIS’s forklift application focuses on lift mast rollers and their mating tracks. The published explanation connects reliable guidance with contact geometry, surface finish, lubrication and minimum load during repeated starts, stops and lifting movements.
The animation
The forklift application connects lift mast rollers with the task of raising and lowering a load. The film gives the component a place in the mast assembly and introduces the relationship between a roller and its track.
