Hydraulic Lifts
A hydraulic lift is a device for moving objects using force created by pressure on a liquid inside a cylinder that moves a piston upward. Incompressible oil is pumped into the cylinder, which forces the piston upward. When a valve opens to release the oil, the piston lowers by gravitational force...
Lift Tables
A lift table is a platform capable of holding materials and raising, lowering, and adjusting them to any height to meet the needs of an application and the user’s requirements. Lift tables are supported by a strong, rigid, and stable base frame placed flat on the floor, in a pit, or equipped with casters or wheels...
Scissor Lift
Scissor lifts are a type of manlift that is commonly used in construction and facility maintenance to raise employees and their tools to working heights. A power system and a control system make up the scissor lift...
Types of Hydraulic Lifts
A hydraulic system is based on Pascal‘s principle of fluid pressure, which hypothesizes that a change in pressure in a fluid is transmitted to all points of the fluid in all directions. With a hydraulic lift, an electrically...
Electric Hoist
Electric hoists are material handling equipment used for lifting, lowering, and transporting materials and products. They are powered by an electric motor and have a controller to adjust the lifting parameters. They are efficient...
Gantry Crane
A gantry crane is an overhead crane that has one or two beams supported by freestanding legs and moves on wheels, a track, or rail system carrying a bridge, trolley, and hoist. Workshops, warehouses, freight yards, railroads, and...
Wire Rope
Wire rope is a collection of metal strands that have been twisted and wound to form the shape of a helix with the purpose of supporting and lifting heavy loads and performing tasks that are too rigorous for standard wire...
Overhead Cranes
An overhead crane is a type of heavy duty machinery that is capable of moving extremely heavy loads and equipment from one location to another in a safe and precise manner using the overhead space of a manufacturing facility. Due to the nature of the work they perform...
Jib Cranes
A jib crane is a lifting device with an arm or boom that extends off the main body of the crane to provide extra reach and has a lattice design to lower the weight added to a load. The design of jib cranes allows them to work...
