intelligent powerhouses…
The electromechanical LAU or, more accurately, the E-LAU, offers a full feature set and is, to put it simply, an intelligent mechatronic unit. It generates an astounding amount of force, allowing it to close large, fully loaded aircraft luggage bins with its power assist. The electronic LAU also opens bins with a controlled, damped motion.
Just one LAU is mounted to each luggage bin with a special damper that has been adjusted to the exact velocity of the lift assist installed on the opposing side.


The mechanical LAU offers the following:
Integrated LED-System

GAS-LAU
unbeatable strength …
The GAS LAU is exactly what you need if you’re looking for a lift assist device for closing especially large and heavy luggage bins. Its strength is supporting the closing motion with extra power. In contrast to the classic LAU, it doesn’t damp the opening motion of the luggage been, but it does offer greater flexibility with respect to lift.
The GAS LAU is mounted to the luggage bin with two additional special dampers that ensure gentle opening and have been precisely adapted to the velocity of the LAU.

M-LAU
keep it simple …
The mechanical LAU offers all the features to ensure convenience when opening luggage bins and to provide impressive relief to crew and passengers alike. In contrast to the other versions, this one, however, works purely mechanically. That makes the M-LAU the right product for you if you are trying to do without electricity completely but don’t want to sacrifice luggage bin motion control.
The M-LAU mounts to the luggage bin together with a damper on the opposing side. This ensures perfectly controlled motion of the bin.
