FullSharp · since 1991

FullSharp installed a ceiling-mounted 5T rail rated for 200 kg with a hand-pulled trolley and an electric hoist, for a workshop moving parts between a few points on a short route. The hoist does the heavy lifting at a button press with a load-holding brake, while the trolley is pushed by hand to stop exactly where needed, keeping cost down.

A workshop needs to move parts between a few points along the same short route. Investing in a fully motorized trolley drive is overkill, but carrying loads by hand is still tiring. The floor around the area is already crowded with machines and workbenches.

FullSharp installs a 5T rail (200 kg rated load) mounted on the ceiling, with a trolley that's pushed and pulled by hand so it stops exactly where needed. The heavy lifting is handled by an electric hoist, raised and lowered at the push of a button with a load-holding brake. This combination is just enough for the job while keeping investment costs low.

5T Ceiling-Mounted Rail with Electric Hoist and Hand-Pulled Trolley

A ceiling-mounted 5T rail with electric hoist and hand-pulled trolley.

Equipment Installed

  • 5T steel rail: ceiling-mounted, 200 kg rated load, running the length of the workshop's work route.
  • Electric hoist: push-button lifting and lowering, with a firm load-holding brake for mid-travel stops.
  • Hand-pulled trolley: no motor for horizontal travel — a gentle push sends the load along the rail.
  • Hanger rods and roof brackets: suspend the rail from the roof structure, distributing the load evenly across mounting points.
  • Travel stops: fitted at both ends of the rail to keep the trolley within its limits.

Benefits for Your Workshop

Reasonable cost

Only the lifting mechanism is motorized; horizontal travel relies on a hand push.

Stops exactly on point

Hand-pulled travel lets the operator judge position by eye, with no button to fine-tune.

Clear floor space

The rail sits on the ceiling, adding no posts or track to the floor below.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a motorized trolley on a rail hoist?

Not always. On a short route, a hand-pushed trolley stops exactly where needed and costs less. The electric hoist still does the heavy lifting.

Does the hoist hold the load when stopped?

Yes. The electric hoist has a load-holding brake, so the part stays in place when the button is released. The operator can then push the trolley without the load slipping.

When is this setup the right choice?

When parts move between a few points along one short route and the floor is crowded with machines and benches. FullSharp sizes the rail and hoist to the real load.
