The ZH90 lifting axis is the most popular lifting system from Zeilhofer HHT. As a linear lifting aid for loads up to 1,200 kg, it enables the precise, virtually weightless lifting, lowering, and positioning of components of all kinds.

The modular system can be pneumatically, electro-pneumatically, or electrically driven, thus adapting flexibly to your existing infrastructure. With a maximum working stroke of 1,600 mm and an infinitely rotating main axis, the ZH90 covers virtually every handling requirement, from manual workstations to fully automated production lines.

Whether in the automotive industry, mechanical engineering, or logistics: The ZH90 lifting axis sustainably reduces physical strain, increases cycle times, and simultaneously minimizes the risk of injury. All systems are developed, designed, and manufactured in-house in Bavaria, are CE-compliant, TÜV-tested, and TISAX-certified.

The ZH lifting platform is a world first and the world's first mobile lifting platform with an integrated 48V lithium-ion battery. No cables, no compressed air connection, no fixed location: The ZH lifting platform works wherever you need it, in production, in the warehouse, or at changing assembly stations.

At the heart of the system is the patented Omniwheel chassis with three omnidirectional wheels, enabling movement in any direction – forwards, backwards, sideways, and diagonally – without repositioning. The intuitive, compact joystick control with programmable working heights makes operation simple and safe, even for inexperienced users.

With a battery life of over 8 hours and a load capacity of up to 130 kg, the ZH lifting platform is the most economical and flexible solution for all businesses that cannot or do not want to install a fixed crane track or ceiling rail. Optionally available with a pneumatic drive for environments with existing pneumatic infrastructure.

The Ergo Screw Technology ZH uniquely combines two of Zeilhofer HHT's core competencies: ergonomic lifting and precise screwdriving processes in one system. Thanks to their high torque capacity, our lifting aids are ideal for integrating screwdrivers and screw spindles, whether manually operated, operator-guided, or fully automated.

The system handles all torque support, so the operator no longer feels any reaction forces, even at high tightening torques. This protects against joint and tendon injuries, improves the quality of the bolted connections, and significantly increases the repeatability of each tightening operation. All common screwdriver types can be easily integrated via IO-Link or fieldbus for complete process monitoring and documentation.

The Ergo ZH screwdriving system is particularly in demand in the automotive and mechanical engineering industries, where high production volumes, defined tightening torques, and seamless quality assurance are standard. The combination of lifting aid and screwdriving technology from a single source reduces interfaces, saves setup time, and significantly simplifies CE documentation for the entire system.

The ZH90 collaborative lifting axis is the answer to one of the most pressing questions in modern production: How can humans and machines work hand in hand safely, efficiently, and without safety barriers? Our collaborative ZH90 is designed precisely for this purpose: It works directly alongside the operator, supporting them in heavy lifting and positioning operations and seamlessly integrating into the human work rhythm.

Thanks to force-sensitive control and safe drive technology, the system recognizes the operator's intended movement and reacts in real time without jerky movements or hazards. The collaborative ZH90 meets all relevant safety standards for human-robot collaboration (HRC) and can be integrated into existing production concepts without complex safety measures.

The result: significantly shorter cycle times, fewer misalignments, and a workplace that relieves the human workload without relinquishing control over the process. Ideal for the automotive industry, special-purpose machinery manufacturing, and all production areas where flexibility and ergonomics are equally important.

The capacitive guide and control unit from Zeilhofer HHT represents a logical evolution of classic lifting aid operation. Instead of multiple mechanical buttons and switches, a single, touch-sensitive capacitive control handle is used, which recognizes the operator's intended movement and translates it directly into control commands. The result is intuitive, fatigue-free handling that requires no training.

The capacitive handle reliably detects whether the worker's hand is gripping the handle, releasing it, or applying pressure in a specific direction, and reacts accordingly in real time. This reduces the number of controls to a minimum, lowers the error rate, and simultaneously increases workplace safety: If the handle is released, the movement stops immediately and safely.

For companies with high handling demands and frequently changing operators, the capacitive guide unit represents a significant advancement: reduced training requirements, fewer operator errors, and increased productivity. The unit is compatible with all Zeilhofer lifting aids and can be retrofitted as a standalone upgrade for existing systems.

The Zeilhofer HHT articulated manipulator is the most versatile lifting aid in the entire product portfolio and, at the same time, the most compact solution for confined production areas. Thanks to its multi-joint design with integrated compensating cylinder, even complex movements can be performed with a single finger: lifting, lowering, swiveling, rotating – all effortlessly, all precisely.

The articulated manipulator is available in three mounting options: stationary on the floor, stationary on the ceiling, or mobile on a rail system. This allows it to seamlessly integrate into any hall infrastructure without structural modifications or compromises. With a working radius of up to 4,000 mm and a load capacity of up to 600 kg, it is the preferred solution for workshops, assembly lines, and production halls of all sizes.

All common rail systems are compatible, and the combination with individual gripping, suction, or magnetic devices from Zeilhofer HHT makes the manipulator a true complete solution from a single source. Developed, designed, and manufactured in Holzkirchen, Bavaria, for quality that withstands the toughest everyday production environments.
