Light cranes are available
January 1st 2012 Street Crane Company, best known
for heavy lift cranes of up to 200
tonnes, also provides equipment for
lighter lifts that are specially designed
for warehousing and logistics.
Chain hoists and light mono rails
have a significant role to play. Street
Crane LX series chain hoists lift up to
five tonnes safe working load, with
entry level models rated to 0.125
tonnes for lighter loads. Fixed position
eye suspension chain hoists provide
vertical axis movement and are
typically used for loading bays and
lifting between floors. For lateral
movement the chain 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
one per cent of the load and so
manual movement is often sufficient. More articles from Street Crane Co Ltd: |
