Goods lift with attendant for Veth Propulsion
For Veth Propulsion in Papendrecht, a specialist in azimuth and bow thrusters for ships, Hublift installed a 1,500 kg goods lift with attendant. The lift is housed in a completely enclosed, self-supporting steel shaft with high-speed roller doors and was installed without a pit, using a 150 mm ramp.

01 · IN BRIEF
Project at a glance
What was built, where, and why, all in one place.
Client
Veth Propulsion in Papendrecht, specialized in azimuth and bow thrusters for ships, from offshore and dredging vessels to inland vessels and superyachts.
Lift type
Hydraulic goods lift with attendant: goods plus one attendant.
Shaft
Completely enclosed self-supporting steel shaft in RAL 7016, 2,600 × 3,300 × 5,850 mm.
Doors
High-speed roller doors of 1,810 × 2,100 mm, integrated into the shaft.
Without pit
No floor excavation required: access via a 150 mm ramp.
Safety
2,000 mm high cabin with sensor strip, emergency communication, emergency lighting, and locking pins on the floor level.
02 · THE CHALLENGE
Control cabinets and components safely to the upper floor
Veth Propulsion wanted to move control cabinets and components safely between the ground floor and the upper floor, allowing an employee to ride along as an attendant. The lift had to be placed on the existing floor, without a pit, and be fully enclosed from the workspace.
Customer requirements
- Transport of control cabinets and components
- An attendant may ride along
- Installation without a floor pit
- Enclosed shaft with high-speed doors
03 · THE SOLUTION
An enclosed goods lift with high-speed roller doors
Hublift supplied a hydraulic goods lift with a double lifting column in a completely enclosed, self-supporting steel shaft. Because the lift was installed without a pit, the control cabinets and components are driven onto the platform via a 150 mm ramp. The high-speed roller doors are integrated into the shaft, and thanks to the 2,000 mm high cabin, an attendant can ride along safely.
