A plant needs a lifting line running along the production flow, but the roof can only bear a light load. The goods also have handles and lifting lugs, so tying cables each time takes too long. Workers lifting by hand nonstop through a shift get tired, and the pace keeps slowing down.

FullSharp installs an overhead aluminum rail and suspends a pneumatic jib crane along with a dedicated hook tool. The aluminum rail is light, so the load on the roof is small, and the trolley runs smoothly along the line. The hook tool fits the goods' lifting points exactly, hook on and lift, eliminating the tying step.

Aluminum Rail Suspending a Pneumatic Jib Crane and Hook Tool

Overhead aluminum rail suspending a pneumatic jib crane with a hook tool for material handling in the plant.

Equipment Installed

  • Formed aluminum rail: lightweight, corrosion-resistant profile, fixed to the ceiling with hanger rods at calculated intervals.
  • Pneumatic jib crane: air-powered lifting with fast response to the control lever, and no risk of electrical sparks.
  • Dedicated hook tool: built to match the goods' lifting points, hook on and lift, no tying needed each time.
  • Rail trolley: runs inside the profile, moved the full length of the line with a light push.
  • Safety air valve assembly: holds the load when the lever is released, reducing drops from air pressure fluctuation.

Benefits for Your Plant

Light Load on the Roof

Aluminum rail is lighter than steel beams, so the existing roof structure usually needs no reinforcement.

Fast Hooking, No More Tying

The hook tool fits the lifting points exactly, so each lift takes only seconds.

Smooth Operation

Pneumatic power gives smooth speed, with no jerking when lifting starts or when lowering.
