HOW TO USE

COMPARISON WITH DROP LIFTERS

Simply attach an arm suitable for the 
application to ZIP MASTER.

 

No additional assembly is required. Just place the 

     device on the floor.

section

Conventional vertical transfer lifters require on-site 
equipment assembly as well as scaffolding on the 
top for installing and inspecting the drive section.

ZIP MASTER’s 
integrated 
structure simplifies 
assembly and 
installation. In 
addition, the drive 
section is located 
on the bottom, 
enabling safe and 
simple inspection 
and maintenance.

ZIP MASTER is a cantilever-type electric high-speed lifter that combines ZIP CHAIN, linear guides, and a motor. Unlike 

conventional lifting mechanism requiring extensive assembly time, ZIP MASTER adopts a “plug-and-play” design that 

can be used simply by placing the device. In addition, the high-speed, high-frequency, high-lift capabilities mean the 

device can be used in a wide range of applications.

Ceiling-mounted drive section

Plug-and-play design

ZIP MASTER utilizes an integrated structure that includes ZIP CHAIN, 
linear guides, and motor. This eliminates the need for assembly and 
simplifies installation while ensuring immediate usability.

Significantly 

reduce man power

Save time

No assembly Easy installation

Conventional system:

Requires additional time 

for designing and at installation.

Immediate

usability

Integrated 
structure of 
ZIP CHAIN, linear 
guides, and motor.

Easy maintenance

Space-saving 

design

Lowest table height

The table can be lowered to 
floor level.

The drive section 
laid out at floor 
level helps ensure 
safety during 
maintenance and 
inspection.

ZIP MASTER can 
minimize 
installation area 
with narrower 
design.

Floor-level lowering

No need to go 

under the arm

Stopping 

accuracy

The simple control structure 
easily allows multi-point 
stopping/multi-level 
positioning.
