Battery Lifter for the Automotive Industry Overview

Stainless Steel Battery and CCU Lifting Solution for Automotive Production Lines

The Packline Battery and CCU Lifter is a specialist stainless steel lifting attachment designed specifically for the automotive manufacturing industry. Engineered to handle vehicle batteries and Central Computer Units (CCUs) safely and efficiently, this solution supports precise positioning within modern car production and assembly lines.

Designed with a shorter-than-standard attachment length, the lifter allows easy access into confined and restricted assembly spaces, making it ideal for use along automotive production tracks and build stations.

Versatile & Adjustable Battery Handling Attachment

This highly versatile attachment features a dual lifting design, enabling safe handling of both batteries and CCUs. The lifting hooks can be adjusted to accommodate a wide range of vehicle components and model variants, ensuring compatibility across multiple automotive platforms.

A four-position adjustable hook arrangement allows fast and accurate configuration for different battery and CCU sizes. Ergonomic adjustment dials are located directly on the attachment, enabling operators to make changes quickly and safely. Once set, the dials can be securely locked to prevent movement during lifting and placement.

The bespoke attachment also offers:

  • Left- and right-hand rotation
  • Full 360-degree rotation
  • In-and-out reach adjustment

This flexibility ensures precise alignment when placing components into vehicle assemblies, reducing the risk of damage and improving productivity.

Safe Handling of Heavy Automotive Components

Capable of lifting large batteries and CCUs weighing up to 60kg, this battery handling solution significantly reduces manual handling risks. It ensures controlled, damage-free placement of critical vehicle components, improving operator safety and consistency on the production line.

Smooth Transport & Precise Control

The lifter is fitted with special triple front-end swivel castors, designed for smooth, stable movement over automotive production line tracks.

Raising and lowering are controlled via a powered lifting mechanism, operated using ergonomically positioned up and down buttons on the handlebars. Optional joystick or remote control operation is also available. A slow-start function provides enhanced control, allowing precise positioning during docking, loading, and unloading operations.

Hygienic, Clean Room & High-Care Suitable

Manufactured from stainless steel, this lifter is fully suitable for high-care and clean room environments. The robust design delivers exceptional stability, strength, and durability, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding automotive manufacturing settings.

Bespoke Design & Interchangeable Attachments

Every battery and CCU lifting attachment is supported by Packline’s bespoke design service, ensuring the solution is tailored to specific production requirements.

All Packline attachments are fully interchangeable and can be quickly fitted or removed from any ‘Compac’ lifting machine equipped with the quick-release system, providing maximum flexibility across multiple applications.
