Electric Wire Rope Hoists Configurations

Standard wire rope hoists configurations include low headroom, normal headroom and also double girder trolley designs. All hoists in metric ratings (FEM) or short ton ratings (ASME) meet a broad range of application requirements:

-Double-reeved or single-reeved

-Lifting speed range of about 10/1.5 to 62/10 feet per minute

-0.5 to 80-ton capacities

-208, 460, 380/3/50 or 575/3/60 power supply units

-Lifting begins at around 13ft to 320ft and beyond

Usability

The Large-diameter hoist drum basically means closer approaches and comfortable positioning. The large drum diameter offers a true vertical lift with the single-reeved rope hoist. The result is remarkably fast load positioning and also smooth movement. This ingenious design also means a much shorter frame length, thus allowing closer end approaches.

Efficiency With Wire Rope Hoists

Whenever a person needs to lift a heavy object, they need to find a tool to assist them in the task. Having a lifting tool is even more important if the object being lifted is too heavy to be lifted manually. In such a case, a person needs to make use of a hoist. Although there are different types of hoist devices, the most common by far is an electric hoist. An electric hoist uses a wire rope to lift an item off the ground either for loading or for storage purposes.

For a company dealing with heavy products such a motor vehicle engines and parts, wire rope hoists are a necessity. The hoists allow the workers to go about their daily activities without too much physical strain. Hoists are used for many industrial applications as well as in the construction and mining industry. The wire hoists come in a variety of sizes depending on the function they are being used for.
