The Mech Assist carriages can be designed to take shelving, racking, cabinets, even non Dexion products can be fitted to the Mech Assist carriages (ideal for re-use of existing shelving components)

Available in standard lengths up to 13.7m. Greater carriage lengths are possible, depending on system load factors

Maximum load carrying capacity of 1,500 kg per linear metre

Standard carriages up to 1200mm depth (deeper carriages can be designed on request)

The unique in-track anti-tilt safety mechanism is superior to conventional overhead mechanisms and eliminates obtrusive overhead bars. Anti-tilt devices are engineered to comply with all seismic requirements, providing an extra measure of system stability and safety – even in areas prone to earthquakes

To assure the smoothest possible operation, an integrated chain tensioner can be easily adjusted to fine tune the carriage drive. This operation only takes a few seconds as a minor service adjustment without disassembly of the system

Select from three drive ratios. By appropriately matching the system drive ratio to the load, operation becomes smooth and effortless. Very little force or exertion is needed to open an aisle

By adjusting track size, spacing and orientation, floor loads can be optimally distributed at practical bearing points

All tracks are fully supported and grouted to evenly distribute system weight

Carriage wheels and tracks are machine tooled for precision and tolerance to ensure maximum strength and system life

Welded-steel carriage sections enhance the Compactus alignment and reduce binding, racking and misalignment of carriage and shelving

The three spoked handle is moulded from a composite of 33% fiberglass and nylon will not bend or rust

Laminate end panels as provided as standard and can be selected from a range of colours

Optional synchronized drive system. This system can be utilised when the carriages need to be driven from both sides to minimise vibration and provide positive tracking – even with unbalanced loads. This is highly recommended when storing of fragile contents

Optional safety lock, to enhance user safety and unwanted movement. The optional safety lock has a bright visual indicator showing the lock status. For additional safety, optional automatic locks are available which help prevent the system from being closed when an aisle is in the open position

Optional additional hub locks prevent unauthorised access to any or all aisles. The optional hub lock allows individual carriages to be key locked in closed aisle position if desired

Optional one-piece track systems have no butt joints or welds. The tongue-and-groove design restricts lateral movement and provides greater structural rigidity

Optional mechanical safety sweep provides extra safety for users working inside an open aisle, the sweep runs the full length of the carriage. Should a carriage start closing all the users need to do is apply light foot pressure to the sweep and a break lock connected to the drive shaft locks the carriage down.
