Some technical developments which were developed many decades ago are still driving today’s progress. One such example is ADE’s screw-operated electric lifting actuator which the company developed in 1965 and which it has been manufacturing ever since. To the customer’s specific requirements and for a multitude of industrial applications. Always benefiting from these unrivalled properties: fast, easy commissioning, extremely unsusceptible to malfunctions, even in the harshest applications, superior environmental performance.

This wealth of experience has formed the ideal basis for the ground-breaking success of ADE’s electric lifting actuator as a drive concept for lock and weir systems. In Europe alone, we have equipped an impressive 200+ lock and weir systems since 1995.

This success is the ultimate driver for the future. In line with our motto: Full speed ahead for pioneering solutions for a wide range of applications.
