Heavy duty hoists
15 Apr 2014
Heavy duty air-operated hoists have been added to the J D Neuhaus range.
Following an ongoing programme of development and innovation, the hoist and crane specialist J D Neuhaus has introduced further models into its EH range of air operated monorail hoists.
These robust units are designed to provide reliable solutions for heavy duty lifting in the harshest environments including onshore and offshore, the cement industry, steelworks and shipbuilding.
Two versions, for each of the 75 and 100 tonne lifting capacity products in the EH range are now available in both double trolley as well as the previously available 4 trolley traverse drive versions.
These models utilise a new air motor unit providing a 9kW power output at a 6 bar air pressure supply.
This motor incorporates technology for the lift/drive and integrated braking operations, based upon a stepped brake piston and self-lubricating rotor unit.
These redesigned four trolley drive version hoists are designated as EH 75 and EH 100 offering 75 or 100 tonnes lift capacities respectively.
The twin trolley drive versions, which offer more compact units for operation where limited space is available, are designated as EH 75C and EH 100C.
Weight reductions for the 4 trolley hoist units have also been achieved, being 250kg for the EH 75 and 600kg for the EH 100.
The twin trolley compact EH 75C and EH 100C models each offer a further weight reduction of 350kg over their 4 trolley counterpart.
Meanwhile, a pro-active gearbox cooling system has also been incorporated utilising the expanding exhaust air from the drive motor, while noise levels during operation have also been reduced.
