Design for capacity and performance
The Vectura range is engineered without compromise for a long operating life
Mast Welding
Heat treatment
The Vectura chassis is manufactured to the highest standards from cold formed steel which is heat treated after welding to eliminate stresses in the material. Such is the accuracy of the chassis that no lateral wheel adjustment is needed. This combined with the heat treatment of the chassis eliminates any risk of misalignment. Wheel axles being perfectly parallel minimizes wear, reduces maintenance costs and ensures long life. The front wheel however is adjustable in height so that the verticality of the mast can be fine-tuned.
The guidance wheels feature eccentric bearings which allow adjustment of the play and spread forces evenly. For applications where a low noise level is particularly important the smaller SRMs can be delivered with vulcollan wheels.
Frequency-controlled AC motors - offering superior efficiency, longer life and lower operational cost - are fitted as standard.
