Hoisting technology

The wire rope hoist programme Behind the attractive design of STAHL CraneSystems wire rope hoists lies a compact, robust and largely low-maintenance construction. They are reliable, powerful and long-lived. The wire rope hoists are manufactured in systematically modular design and dimensioned for the safe working load range from 500 kg to 160,000 kg. The versatile SH is available in five frame sizes with 26 S.W.L. variants for the safe working load range from 500 kg to 25,000 kg. The upper safe working load range from 125,000 kg is covered by the field-proven AS model. The SW winch programme extends the range of application into the heavy lifting range up to 250,000 kg. Off-standard applications and customised solutions can be achieved cost-effectively thanks to the modular design of the standard components. All wire rope hoists are also available in explosionprotected design complying with ATEX and IECEx.

The chain hoist programmes The ST and SC chain hoist programmes from STAHL CraneSystems rank among the most distinctive and comprehensive on offer in the world. The robust classic ST, tried and tested day for day, proves its efficiency in 13 variants for the safe working load range from 125 kg to 6,300 kg. The whole programme is available in explosionprotected design complying with ATEX and IECEx. The SC chain hoist supplements the ST chain hoist programme, its technically mature design, one of the most up-to-date constructions available at present, is convincing. It is available in three variants for the safe working load range from 63 kg to 2,500 kg. The innovative and pioneering chain hoist design offers great economic advantages and is suitable for rugged use in industry. The different configurations and various suspensions permit numerous possible combinations. Over and over again new, practical off-standard designs are developed, such as the dual chain hoist with fixed or variable distance between hooks.

The drive technology

The crane endcarriages and travel drives The robust crane endcarriages from STAHL CraneSystems are manufactured in up-to-date series production. Mounting them on both suspension cranes and overhead travelling cranes is simplicity itself. The various wheel diameters permit suitable solutions to be found for all applications. The precisely controlled travel drives set your crane in motion and help to position the load quickly and precisely without troublesome swinging. The integrated centrifugal mass and low-noise gears ensure smooth starting, steady acceleration and braking. High operational reliability and a long service life are guaranteed.
