FullSharp supplied a modular 5T rail support frame in powder-coated I and H section steel, made to drawing and bolted together on site, for a plant whose sheet-metal roof cannot carry a suspended hoist. The frame is matched to the KITO electric hoist and keeps the rail straight from day one, so the trolley runs smoothly with less wheel wear.
Many plants want to install an electric hoist, but their sheet-metal roof and trusses cannot bear a suspended load. Welding a frame on site makes it hard to keep the rail straight, so the trolley jams and its wheels wear out quickly.
FullSharp supplies a modular 5T rail support frame, pre-fabricated to drawing and bolted together on site. The frame is matched to the KITO electric hoist, keeping the rail straight from the start so the hoist runs smoothly with less wear.
Steel 5T rail support frame installed for a KITO electric hoist in the plant.
The self-supporting frame stands on the floor, so it fits sheet-metal-roofed plants and leased facilities alike.
Pre-fabricated to drawing, so the rail does not warp and the trolley and hoist wear less.
The modular structure lets you add rail sections as your plant expands, without starting over.
Yes, with a freestanding frame. The rail is supported on steel columns standing on the floor, so the load goes to the ground and the roof carries nothing.
A frame made to drawing in the workshop keeps the rail straight. Site welding often leaves the rail slightly out of line, so the trolley jams and wheels wear fast.
Manufacturing and mechanical assembly plants, warehouses and distribution centers and similar sites with light roofs. FullSharp sizes the frame to the hoist and real load.
FullSharp measures the length of the line, the clear ceiling height, and checks the floor where the frame legs will sit. Our engineers select the steel section size and column spacing based on your actual load and span, then send drawings for your approval. Tell us your floor plan and the hoist type you plan to install.
