Overview of electric chain hoists

A high performance electric chain hoist & electric chain hoist is a cost-effective hoisting solution for various lifting applications where positive load engagement are required at multiple lift points. The standard loading capacity of the electric chain hoists are 0.5 ton, 1ton, 2 ton, 3 ton, 5 ton, 10 ton, 15 ton, 20 ton up to 32 ton and customized electric chain block designs are needed when up 32 tons. The main hoist parameters and specifications are presented for your reference.

Main parameters& specification of electric chain hoists

• Electric hoist type: standard electric chain hoists
• Lifting capacity of electric chain hoist: 0.5 ton to 5 ton,35ton, , and customized
• Lifting height of electric chain hoist: 6m to 100 m
• Lifting speed of electric chain hoist: 0.4/1.2 to 2.4/11.8m/min

A single-phase electric chain hoist is an ideal lifting equipment for mechanics and smaller shops by plugging into standard electrical outlets simply and conveniently whereas, the Three-phase electric chain hoists are usually used in larger industrial applications where heavy loads are handled on a daily basis.And customized electric chain hoist blocks are available, with rain cover and other featured designs. Contact us to get customized electric chain hoists.

Main types of of electric chain hoists

Based on the types of hoist mount, the standard electric chain hoists can be grouped in hook mounted, lug mounted or eye mounted electric chain blocks, and trolley mounted electric chain hoists, either a motorized or manually powered trolley. With fix hoist design, the electric chain hoists can offer loading lifting up and down vertically. With hoist trolley, the electric chain hoists can be suspended on a fixed overhead beams or monorails to move horizontally and hoists can lift loads vertically.

Hook electric chain hoists

Hook mounted, lug mounted, eye mounted electric chain fall hoists with no trolley

Hook mounted electric chain fall hoists are designed solely for lifting loads up and down vertically. The horizontal handling of the electric chain fall hoists are in conjunction with the hoist trolleys. The electric chain fall hoists with hooks or lugs can be used as fixed hoists mounted on supporting structures, and the electric chain fall hoists with trolleys can be used as travelling hoists running on suitable overhead girder beams or rails. 

Motorized trolley & electric trolley electric chain hoists

Powered trolleys or motorized hoist trolley may add a little cost but offering a high efficient chain fall electric hoist solution which will be a cost-effective solution for a high volume material handling. Electric chain blocks with motorized trolley may give you a exceptional return .

Manual trolley electric chain hoists

Manual trolley electric chain hoist is a light duty electric chain fall hoists which is mounted or suspended on a manual trolley or hand operated hoist trolley, equipped on small single girder crane, overhead H Beam & I beam, monorail systems, and other rails, with lifting capacity from 500kg to 20 ton for light duty and small loads handling. Manual hoist trolley are more simple and cheap, which can be grouped into geared trolleys or plain trolley and widely used on manual hoist cranes.

The manual trolley chain fall electric hoist is an economical but effective trolley hoists with the combination of manual trolley and electric chain hoists which will be a cost-effective solution for applications where light duty material handling with frequent vertical lifting but less horizontal movement is required.

Explosion proof electric chain fall hoists

The explosion proof electric chain hoists are deigned and fabricationsed in accordance with international standards. The explosion proof electric chain hoists are consisted of hoist parts and components with features of explosion proof, spark resistant and high safety , which are widely used in hazadours applications to ensure the safety and improvematerial handling efficicency.

Low headroom chain electric hoist

Low headroom electric chain fall hoists are specially designed for workshop with limited working space. With customized designs, the lifting height of low headroom electric chain fall hoists can up to 130 meters, which will be a cost-effective chain fall electric hoist solution for your applications.

Double hook electric chain fall hoists

The twin hook electric chain fall hoists is developed on the bases of low headroom electric chain fall hoists and it has a very similar structure of the low headroom electric chain fall hoists. The twin hook electric chain hoists are mainly consisted of the components & parts including electric motor, transmission mechanism, chains, hook and safety devices, etc. The distance between the two lower hooks can be customized from 0- 3 meter. All of the twin hook electric chain fall hoists can be customized for your specific setup,with good and reliable performances to make the best value of your investment!

Main components and parts of electric chain hoists

Generally , Electric chain hoist blocks is a light and small lifting equipment, which is consisted of electric motor, transmission mechanism, chains, hook and safety devices, etc. The general features of the electric chain hoist is handy and powerful, compact structure, small size, and light weight., easy installation and operation, with reliable and stable performance and long working life. And all of our electric chain hoist blocks are processed according to international standards.

Hook lug Manual trolley and electric trolley for electric chain hoists

• Plain Trolley: A plain/push is operated by maneuvering the trolley along the Beam by human power via the hoist operator. The operator will grab either the hook or the item being lifted and pull or push the item to move it in the desired direction along the Beam.
• Geared Trolley: A geared trolley is used by pulling a chain hanging from the trolley to maneuver the hoist along the beam or track. A geared trolley operated by pulling the hand chain.
• Motorized Trolley: The motorized trolley option has motor equipped on the side of the trolley wheels, and usually has its own control pendant. A trolley speed must be specified when ordering a motorized trolley.

Selecting the right hoist mounting type for your electric chain blocks is very important and error on selection may be very costly or it may cause trouble in your future work which can be avoided totally by contact our electric hoist and crane specialists. 

Applications

Electric chain hoists & electric chain fall hoists have a wide application. The electric chain hoists are mainly used in various types of plants, factory, storage, wind-power stations, logistics, ports, construction field, and other places or workshops for loading & unloading in factories,warehouses, or other workshops for machinery installation, dispatching goods, equipment maintenance with capacity of 500 kg, 1 ton, 2 ton, 3 ton, 5 ton ,10 ton 20 ton , 35 ton ton, and customized .
