FullSharp · since 1991

FullSharp built a single-side column frame for a battery factory where the lifting area runs along a wall and machines leave no room for two rows of columns. One rail end rests on a steel column and the other on the existing structure, carrying a Knight Global air balancer and battery gripper, so the aisle and layout stay unchanged.

In a battery factory, the area needing lift is often against a wall or right next to a row of machines, without room to build two rows of columns. Workers still end up carrying a heavy battery over a short stretch, but repeated hundreds of times each shift.

FullSharp built a single-side column frame: one end of the rail rests on a steel column, the other end attaches to the existing structure, carrying a Knight Global air balancer and battery gripper tool. This approach uses only one row of columns, keeping the aisle and machine layout unchanged.

Single-Column Frame with a 5T Rail, 200 kg, for a Battery Factory

Single-side column frame resting a 5T 200 kg rail with an air balancer and battery gripper tool at the battery plant.

Equipment Installed

  • Load-bearing steel column: a base plate anchored to the floor with expansion bolts, supporting one end of the rail and absorbing the full moment load when lifting.
  • 5T rail, 200 kg: runs across the work area, with the trolley moving between the pick-up and drop-off points for batteries.
  • Knight Global air balancer: lifts and lowers by hand force, holding its height when the worker lets go to adjust position.
  • Battery gripper tool: clamps around the battery body, opened by compressed air and releasing only once the battery is set down.

Benefits for the Factory

Minimal footprint

Just one row of columns, so the machine area and cart aisle need no rearranging.

Fast installation

The frame is prefabricated, so on site it only needs the column erected, the rail aligned and the bolts tightened.

Light-handed operation

The air balancer carries the load, the worker only guides the battery into the right slot on the rack.

Frequently asked questions

What if there is no room for two rows of crane columns?

A single-side column frame can work. One end of the rail sits on a steel column and the other attaches to existing structure, if that structure can carry the load.

How are heavy batteries lifted safely?

With a dedicated battery gripper on an air balancer. The balancer carries the weight and the gripper holds the battery securely while it is moved.

What load does this frame carry?

The 5T rail in this project is rated at 200 kg. FullSharp checks the existing structure and the real battery weight before design.

Installation Consultation for Your Factory

FullSharp surveys the column location, checks the structure supporting the other end of the rail, and measures the actual battery load. After the survey, we provide the frame drawing, rail reach, and the air balancer and gripper tool configuration that fits.
