Common types of electric hoist
The electric hoist is a small-sized, light-weight, inexpensive and easy-to-use small lifting equipment driven by electricity. According to its different structure, it can be divided into wire rope electric hoist and chain electric hoist
Electric Chain Hoist
The electric chain hoist is an electric hoist with a welded circular chain as the load. Compared with wire rope electric hoist, the structure is lighter and the price is cheaper.
Wire rope electric hoist
The wire rope electric hoist is an electric hoist with a steel wire rope as the load. It has compact structure, light weight, high efficiency and easy operation. Equipped with a running trolley, it can be used as a lifting mechanism for overhead monorail cranes, electric single beams, electric suspension and other cranes.
The main points of using electric hoist
- Operate strictly according to regulations and strictly prohibit overloading.
- The limiter is a safety device to prevent the hook from rising or falling beyond the limit position and cannot be used as a switch.
- It is not allowed to park the load in the air for a long time to prevent permanent deformation of the machine parts and other accidents.
- After the work is completed, the hook should be raised to a height above 2m from the ground, and the power supply should be cut off.
- Do not lift at an angle to avoid damage to the rope guide device.
- When the heavy object is falling and can’t stop, you can quickly press the “up” button to make the weight rise a little, then you can press the “down” button, and do not release it until the weight is slowly approaching the ground, then check.
- According to the usage, check regularly to keep good lubrication.
