The process of keeping machinery, equipment, vehicles and facilities in good working order is no easy task, but it can be made safer and more efficient with the use of cranes and hoists. From manual chain hoists that can be carried throughout facilities to fixed systems like workstation cranes or jib cranes for applications like vehicle maintenance, we can streamline the workflow, increase productivity and improve safety in your maintenance shop.
- Crane and hoist systems offer better coverage – They provide easy access to hard-to-reach areas and critical components without hassle, streamlining maintenance processes and minimizing downtime.
- Crane and hoist systems are low maintenance – They are designed for long-term reliability and consistent performance without frequent interruptions, allowing you to save time and resources.
- Crane and hoist systems are safe – They are safer for operators and equipment, providing precise lifting that causes less damage to equipment and vehicles being serviced and can be made even safer when teamed with accessories like dual redundant hoist brakes and travel limit switches.
- Crane and hoist systems are versatile – Designed for heavy-duty, heavy load carrying, their capacities range from ¼ ton to 1,000 tons and they can also be used under harsh conditions and hazardous environments (link to: https://www.sbomh.com/collections/explosion-proof-applications) as well as in clean-room facilities.
Cranes & Hoists Used in Maintenance
While the specific lifting equipment recommended for your maintenance application will be determined by the unique requirements of your facility and the equipment you are servicing, these are some of the more common cranes and hoists we offer for industrial maintenance.
Jib Cranes
Jib Cranes are some of the most versatile cranes, offering capacities from 250 lbs. to 15 tons and a design that allows load movement in a wide range of ways. They can be wall mounted, floor mounted, ceiling mounted or free standing and are often used for vehicle maintenance as well as repetitive lifting tasks and moving equipment in hard-to-reach places. They also require less maintenance than other cranes as they have fewer operational components.
Workstation Cranes
A workstation crane is a type of overhead lifting system that moves heavy loads within a workspace. They help improve workplace safety, productivity, and quality for a variety of industries including maintenance shops, automobile repair garages, manufacturers and other facilities. Their lifting capacity can range from 150 lbs. to around 2 tons and they are designed to be ergonomic and user-friendly.
Manual Chain Hoists
Also known as chain pulleys and chain blocks, manual chain hoists provide a lightweight, portable manually operated industrial hoisting solution. They are commonly used in construction, manufacturing, and other industrial applications and recommended for short and frequent lifting, like in a maintenance or repair shop. They can easily be carried through facilities to provide flexibility for maintaining several pieces of equipment.
