BendPak introduced revamped models of its Mobi-EVS Series of EV battery and powertrain lifting systems, the company announced Wednesday.
MobiEVS4500 and EVS3000 models are powered by a heavy-duty 12-volt DC power unit with a deep cycle battery, making them cordless. The EVS4500 has a rated lift capacity of 4,500 pounds. The EVS3000 is rated for up to 3,000 pounds.
"Since we introduced the first full-rise, battery-powered mobile EV battery lift table in 2021, we have never stopped refining our patent-pending design based on customer feedback, internal testing and ongoing engineering analysis," says Sean Price, BendPak's director of sales operations. "From obvious improvements like an all-new handle to those that aren't as easily spotted like using higher grades of steel in key components, our latest innovations make the EVS4500 and EVS3000 perfect for servicing electric cars, vans and commercial trucks."

Mobi-EVS Series systems also feature ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylene to protect the tabletop from wear and tear. It also serves as an insulation barrier and provides a low-friction surface to enable technicians to shift heavy components with less effort.
Updates to the series include lowering the center of gravity, redesigning the base frame and scissor assemblies, increasing the use of high-tensile steel, widening the safety assembly and increasing weld sizes. The patent-pending tilt-deck table will make it easier to adjust, BendPak says, and improve overall stability.
The EVS4500 and EVS3000 also offer full-length utility trays on both sides as well as fore and aft storage bin options for organizing tools and adapters.
Mobi-EVS Series lifts have an attached pendant controller, allowing the lift to be operated by a single person. They also have a multi-point safety lock system that engages automatically while lifting and can be disengaged by pushing a button on the pendant controller.
Multiple recessed anchoring locations on the platform accommodate modular fixtures, adapters and accessories. Screw jacks provide roll, pitch and yaw adjustments for precise alignment and leveling of components.
