What Is a Single Speed Electric Wire Rope Hoist?
A single-speed electric wire rope hoist is a type of lifting equipment used to raise and lower heavy loads vertically. It is powered by an electric motor and typically consists of a motorized unit, a drum or reel, a wire rope, and a lifting hook or other attachment. The “single-speed” designation refers to the fact that it has a fixed speed for lifting and lowering operations.
CD series wire rope electric hoists are often used with Single Girder Overhead Cranes, but can also be used for double girder overhead cranes, gantry cranes or jib cranes. The single-speed electric wire rope hoists have a lifting capacity of 0.5 to 32 tons and working levels of M3 and M4. They are widely used in factories, warehouses, railroads, wharves and other places.

Wire Rope Hoist vs Chain Hoist
The choice between a wire rope hoist and a chain hoist depends on the specific application requirements. Factors such as load capacity, lifting height, environmental conditions and budget will all influence the most suitable crane choice.
Feature | Wire Rope Hoist | Chain Hoist |
---|---|---|
Lifting Mechanism | Wire rope wound around a drum or reel | A chain made of metal links pulled over a sprocket/drum |
Flexibility | Greater flexibility, suitable for longer lifts | Limited flexibility, more suitable for shorter lifts |
Durability | More resistant to abrasion | May have better resistance to corrosion |
Weight Capacity | Higher load capacities | Lower load capacities |
Lifting Height | Suitable for significant lifting heights | More suitable for shorter lifts |
Applications | Common in construction, manufacturing, and mining | Widely used in manufacturing, warehouses, and maintenance |
Cost | Tends to be a higher cost, especially for higher capacities | Often more cost-effective for lower capacities |
