Street Crane Company, known for
heavy lift cranes of up to 200t, also
provides equipment for lighter lifts.
The company's LX series chain hoists lifts up to 5t safe working load, with entry level models rated to 0.125t. Fixed position eye suspension chain hoists provide vertical axis movement and are used for loading bays and lifting between floors. For lateral movement the hoist can be supplied with a trolley on a light beam or mono-rail. The rolling resistance of a chain hoist in this set up is typically 1% of load, so manual movement is often sufficient.
Light crane systems complement the LX hoist, giving complete x and y movement in the horizontal plane.
