Safety Lifting Device for motorsport

Safety Lifting Device

Ensure safe and efficient towing in motorsport with our specialized lifting device

Motorsport is one of the greatest challenges for both man and machine. To ensure that drivers and vehicles can be quickly and safely removed from the track in case of an emergency, invenio has developed a towing system that is now used on numerous racetracks to guarantee the highest level of safety and efficiency.

Aluminium Lifting Beam

The centerpiece of the lifting device is the aluminum lifting beam with several dampers, independently developed by invenio engineers. The beam – especially the two side sections – was designed based on the stress distribution and optimized for lightweight construction. It was analytically calculated and then refined using FEM simulations to achieve the desired rigidity.

Damping Element

The special spring-damper system is based on friction springs. Under axial load, these compress into a wedge shape, generating friction that provides excellent damping properties. Thanks to the intelligent design of the system, dynamic loads, such as during lifting or when driving over a curb, are optimally absorbed. These vibration isolators reduce dynamic loads on both the hoist and the vehicle itself.

Lifting Pins

The special quick-release ‘lifting pins’ are securely attached to the crossbar using wear-resistant lifting straps, custom-made for the lifting device. In line with the relevant regulations, vehicles in almost all GT racing series are equipped with corresponding mounting bushings on the roof, allowing the ‘lifting pins’ to be connected in seconds.

 

Trusted by Motorsport's Elite

Renowned series like the German Touring Car Masters (DTM), World Endurance Championship (WEC), FIA World Touring Car Championship (WTCC), ADAC GT Masters, and Japan's Super GT rely on invenio’s lifting devices for unmatched safety and efficiency. Trusted by many other top-tier motorsport organizations worldwide, it sets the standard for reliable performance.
