Vehicle lifting systems for the maintenance of rail vehicles
Above-floor systems and underfloor systems for safe repair
We offer both above-floor systems (lifting jacks) and underfloor systems. Both systems allow for lifting not only individual vehicles but also complete vehicle sets without having to uncouple them.

If you require systems for maintenance but wish to avoid foundation work, then our systems are precisely what you need. They provide optimal maintenance access to the underside of rail vehicles.
We produce the control systems ourselves. Our safety PLC with integrated synchronization control fully complies with the latest DIN EN 1493 standard for vehicle lifting platforms.
Applications of our vehicle lifting systems
BÜTER Hebetechnik GmbH vehicle lifting systems are primarily used in the rail vehicle industry, but also find application in lifting trucks, buses, construction machinery, and tanks. They primarily serve the maintenance and servicing of these vehicles and ensure a safe and efficient workflow through their robust construction and precise technology.
Product details
Above-floor systems
Above-floor systems are either permanently installed or equipped with a chassis. The mobile lifting jack systems are available in all variants: as rail-mounted chassis or floor-mounted chassis, with or without drive. For lifting rail vehicles, the lifting jacks can be equipped with fixed or adjustable outriggers and corresponding load pads.
Underfloor lifting systems
Underfloor lifting systems can be designed for lifting individual components – such as single bogies – or entire vehicles. With our systems, you can realize highly efficient lifting lines where, by combining bogie and car body lifters, multiple bogies can be changed simultaneously without having to lower the vehicle in between.
Features of vehicle lifting systems
