The plant needed to lift loads up to a ton, but the metal roof and trusses couldn't take additional hanging load. Hiring a crane for each lift is costly and requires waiting, while pouring foundations for a fixed gantry crane would interfere with future machine layout plans. What was needed was a freestanding, relocatable lifting system.
FullSharp built a mobile support frame carrying a 1000 kg rated rail with a Black Bear electric hoist from Taiwan. The entire load transfers down through the frame to the floor, never touching the roof. When the plant layout changes, the frame can be relocated while keeping the whole equipment set intact.
Mobile frame carrying a 1000 kg rail with a Black Bear electric hoist installed inside the plant.
The freestanding frame transfers the load to the floor, so metal roofs and light trusses never need reinforcing.
When the plant is reorganized, move the frame to a new spot without wasting the original investment.
The 1000 kg rated rail covers most heavy loads commonly found in mechanical workshops.
FullSharp surveys the floor's load-bearing capacity, the clear ceiling height, and the work area to be covered, to calculate the frame and rail length. We select the hoist capacity based on your heaviest load, then build and test-run it at your plant. Contact FullSharp to schedule a site survey.
