We know your plant

Automotive, area by area.

Every shop in a vehicle plant has its own lifting rhythm. The press shop swaps heavy stamping dies against the clock; body and assembly lines need quick, precise, operator-friendly handling at hundreds of stations; the paint shop adds a flammable-zone requirement.

LOADMATE supplies the full set: EOT cranes and monorails for die and component handling, and workstation jib cranes with electric chain hoists for fast, ergonomic, repeatable lifts — with VFD drives where cycle time and precision matter, and flame-proof options for paint areas.

Where we lift

Walk the plant — click any area.

Each area has its own loads, its own hazards, and its own way of testing a crane. Tap a stage to jump to it.

LOADMATE Press shop / die handling Stamping dies

Heavy swaps against the clock

Stamping dies weighing several tonnes are changed between runs. The faster and safer the die swap, the more the press produces — this is high-value, time-critical lifting.

  • What hangs from the hookStamping dies, die sets, press tooling.
  • When the crane failsA slow or failed die change idles a multi-crore press line.
  • The LOADMATE answerEOT cranes and monorails with VFD travel for fast, precise, repeatable die handling.
LOADMATE Body shop & weld BIW, panels & fixtures

Precise, repeatable handling

Body-in-white panels, sub-assemblies and weld fixtures are positioned at speed across the body shop — precision and repeatability keep the robots fed.

  • What hangs from the hookBIW panels, sub-assemblies, weld fixtures, jigs.
  • When the crane failsA handling stall starves the weld line and halts throughput.
  • The LOADMATE answerEOT cranes and electric chain hoists on monorails with smooth VFD control.
LOADMATE Paint shop Skids, racks & bodies

Flammable-zone duty

Paint and its solvents make this a hazardous area. Handling of skids, racks and bodies here has to be flame-proof and clean.

  • What hangs from the hookBody skids, paint racks, jigs.
  • When the crane failsA spark in the paint shop is a fire risk, not a breakdown.
  • The LOADMATE answerFlame-proof (Ex) electric chain hoists and cranes for paint-line zones.
LOADMATE Trim, assembly & engine Engines & sub-assemblies

Ergonomic workstation lifting

Final assembly and engine lines lift engines, transmissions and heavy sub-assemblies at hundreds of operator stations — ergonomic, fast, low-effort handling protects both throughput and operators.

  • What hangs from the hookEngines, transmissions, axles, seats, sub-assemblies.
  • When the crane failsOperator fatigue and stops here directly cut line output.

FAQs

Automotive — common questions.

What capacity do you supply for die handling?

EOT cranes sized to your heaviest stamping die, with VFD travel and hoisting for fast, precise, repeatable die changes.

Do you supply workstation jib cranes for assembly?

Yes — wall and pillar jib cranes with electric chain hoists for ergonomic, low-effort lifting at individual stations.

Can you provide flame-proof equipment for the paint shop?

Yes — flame-proof (Ex) hoists and cranes for paint-line hazardous zones, specified to your area classification.

How do you keep cycle times fast?

Two-speed and VFD drives give quick travel with controlled, repeatable spotting — faster cycles with less load sway.

Which standards apply?

IS 3177 / IS 807 for cranes, IS 6547 for chain hoists, with ISO 9001:2015 and ZED Gold certification.
