Phoenix Mecano
Electric linear actuators and lifting columns for precise movement, positioning, and height adjustment.
Southern Africa (South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Zambia)
Phoenix Mecano is a global technology group listed in Switzerland. Its RK Rose+Krieger division is the linear-motion specialist. Founded in 1972 in Minden, Germany, and part of the Phoenix Mecano group since 1987, RK Rose+Krieger designs and manufactures electric linear actuators and lifting columns that move, position, and adjust loads. The range runs from low-cost actuators for small adjustment tasks through to heavy-duty electric cylinders and synchronised multi-column lifting systems.
Why Phoenix Mecano?
RK Rose+Krieger actuators and lifting columns position loads accurately and repeatably, cycle after cycle. Decades of linear-motion engineering go into stable travel, controlled speed, and long service life.
The range spans small adjustment actuators through to heavy-duty electric cylinders with push forces to 4,000 N and thrust to 9,100 N. Stroke, force, drive voltage, and mounting are matched to the application rather than forced to a fixed part.
RK lifting columns run singly or in synchronised groups under mono and synchronous control units, so multi-column platforms rise and fall level and stable. Position and speed are controllable across the group.
Mechanical Safelock safety, overload protection, and position control are available across the lifting-column range. Products are backed by RK Rose+Krieger's CAD component library and the manufacturing depth of the global Phoenix Mecano group.
Phoenix Mecano products available through DNH
DNH supplies two Phoenix Mecano RK Rose+Krieger product families into South Africa: electric linear actuators and lifting columns. Both are configured to your stroke, force, and drive requirements, with control units and safety options selected to match the duty.
Rod-style electric actuators for push and pull tasks: adjusting, tilting, lifting, and positioning in machinery and equipment. The range runs from compact low-force actuators to heavy-duty electric cylinders.
Telescopic lifting columns for stable height adjustment of workstations, machinery, and medical, laboratory, and care equipment. Two-stage and multi-stage versions cover short and long travels, single or synchronised.
Complete RK Rose+Krieger builds combining actuators or lifting columns with the matching control units and safety options, configured for a customer specification. DNH consults on selection and coordinates the order with RK Rose+Krieger in Minden.
Where Phoenix Mecano fits in your industry
Phoenix Mecano actuators and lifting columns run in medical, industrial, building, and materials-handling equipment. The four below are the strongest fit.
Application examples
RK Rose+Krieger lifting columns and electric actuators are specified for height adjustment of workstations, machine tables, and equipment platforms in South African industrial and medical equipment.
RK Rose+Krieger electric cylinders are specified for push and pull adjustment, tilting, and load positioning in machinery and equipment built in South Africa.
