In areas with solvents or combustible dust, using an electric motor right at the lifting head is something worth thinking twice about. Yet the goods still weigh a great deal and must move along the plant floor many times a day.

FullSharp installs an overhead 5T steel rail, hanging an ENDO pneumatic hoist from Japan beneath it. The hoist runs on air pressure, so it generates no electrical sparking, lifts and lowers smoothly, and can be adjusted down to the centimeter.

5T Overhead Rail with ENDO Pneumatic Hoist

Overhead 5T steel rail with ENDO pneumatic hoist installed on the plant's structural frame.

Equipment Installed

  • Overhead steel rail: rated for 5T, fixed permanently to the plant's structural frame.
  • ENDO pneumatic hoist: Japanese-made, lifts and lowers using air pressure, smooth in operation and free of sparking.
  • Rail trolley: pulls goods flexibly along the rail line.
  • Pneumatic control valve system: gives precise lifting and lowering control at the operator's command.
  • Suspension fittings: brackets, hanger rods, and anchor bolts that keep the structure safe.

Benefits for Your Facility

Fire and Explosion Safety

The pneumatic hoist generates no electrical sparking at the lifting point.

Precise Lowering

Air valve control allows centimeter-level adjustment, reducing impact on the load.

Clear Floor Space

The overhead system frees up the production floor space below.

FullSharp checks the plant's structural frame, available compressed air supply, and the heaviest load before finalizing the configuration. We select the ENDO hoist to match the actual lifting height, install it, load-test it, and hand it over on site.
