Building a Baja Racing Car Lift System | Progressive Automations Sponsorship

Join Atlas Elevation, a team of BCІT mechanical engineering students, as they walk you through the creation of a vehicle lifting level system designed for a Baja racing car. Sponsored by Progressive Automations, they utilized four PA-QR1 linear actuators, each boasting a load capacity of 675 lbs, a 14-inch stroke, and an IP66 rating.

The PA-QR1 actuators were selected for their lightweight design, affordability, high output force, and durable IP rating. Complementing these actuators, the AC 32 quick release levers, also from Progressive Automations, offer a practical solution for rapid release, particularly useful in power-out scenarios or swift pit stops.
This video demonstrates the straightforward installation and operation of the AC 32 quick release system. The effective design of this mechanism ensures quick actuator release without the need for power, requiring a minimum force of 70 lbs applied via a floor jack.
