You can see a special place for various work equipment and hygienic requirements in various industries, including the pharmaceutical industry, cleaning technology, food industry, or even cleanroom technology. All this differs from industry to industry. Even the hoists and the crane system used in these specific industries are different from each other. Every industry requires industry-specific hoists to meet their demands. Hence the material handling equipment manufacturing companies are designing hoists as per the requirements of the industries.
The hygiene requirement is distinctly valued in every second industry; therefore, the crane systems experience a stiff change according to environmental conditions and prospective applications. This article discusses the various kinds of hoists that industries require.
- Electric wire rope hoist: You can select the electric wire rope hoist to use with any large crane system. When your load capacity increases above 5 tons or even greater than that, you can equip your machine with an electric wire rope hoist. These hoists provide a smooth operation with the help of the wire rope that is winded around the drum. Industries that require utmost precision can take advantage of using an electrical wire rope hoist with VFD.
- Electric chain hoist: You can get an electric chain hoist in various configurations. These are ideal for industries that work with loads that usually range between 125 kgs to 25 tons. You can specify these hoists with various mounting options, including motorized trolleys, manual trolleys, hook mounts, or lug mounts. You can operate this hoist at various lifting speeds, including the variable frequency drive variants, dual speed, or single speed. Additionally, you can also get access to the voltage option to suit your application requirement.
- Pneumatic hoist: The pneumatic hoists project a similar function to that of the electric hoists. But from the name, you can understand that these hoists are an excellent choice when you are prohibited from working with the electrical ones as they are considered intrinsically safe. Moreover, going by the design of this particular kind, you can get variable speed controls that you can control as per your requirement. For example, an industry that requires high-speed operation can use these hoists faster than electrical ones. But one thing you need to maintain while using this hoist is to include a lubricator, filter, and regulator. It is done to extend the service life of your device.
- Manual chain and lever hoist: The manual chain or the lever hoists offers a very low-cost solution to the respective industries. Especially in the construction and maintenance industry, one can see their use. You can avail the lever hoists and the manual chain hoist for a wider range of lifting projects. They are a great alternative for powered hoists when you face the unavailability of compressed electricity. With the lightweight and compact design, the manual chain blocks and the lever hoists offer a viable solution when you are looking for portability. In addition to that, the manual chain blocks rely on the operation of manual hand-over-hand actuation. With the programming of gear reduction, these hoists offer to lift solutions to the industry efficiently. You can order one with either a geared trolley, push-pull trolley or with the top hook.
- Balancers: Balancers are electrically powered or air-powered lifting devices. You can get them in various configurations. Balancers are designed to provide lighter capacity lifting. While most balancers offer some float capabilities or balance, these are primarily used for lifting purposes. If you are seeking a lifting application for your industry, then balancers are the best fit.
- Speciality hoists: Not every industry is equally created to provide a solution to the challenges. The speciality material handling equipment is necessary when it comes to serving the production process. It includes the necessity of hoists. Every production unit and industry that deals with hazardous material or removable materials, hoists, and equipment should have corrosion resistance and fireproof attributes. The hoist for these certain industries should be manufactured in spark-resistant materials. Moreover, the corrosion-resistant features help to maintain the safety standards of these industries. Apart from that, if the food production industry requires hoists for their easy production process, it should take advantage of Food grade hoists made of hundred per cent stainless steel. In addition, the chip-proof enamel paint and the edible lubricant provided in the hoists offer top quality.
