Problem solving hoists

23 July 2018

As the UK agent for GIS AG, Swiss based chain hoist and crane manufacturer, LTM offers special GIS Hoists for applications where standard hoists cannot be supplied. Amongst these are hoists for use with synchronised travel and low headroom, explosion controlled or corrosion resistant environments.

For example, the GIS Synchron is suitable for transporting long bulky loads. The appropriate synchronous lifting of the hoist and the accurate levelling of the two load hooks assure precise positioning of load without undesirable rotation.

Two GPS electric chain hoists are supplied and are connected electrically and mechanically. There are two options, a basic hoist with a minimum of 700 to 2999mm between hooks, or basic hoist with a minimum of 3000 to 5000mm between hooks. There is a maximum load capacity of 2 x 1250kg.

This hoist is suitable for the automobile and printing industries among others and can be combined with GISKB suspended crane or travelling crane – all available from LTM. Hoists can be supplied with trolleys for horizontal travel, frequency inverters for variable speed and customised devices for load handling.
