A customer from the UAE aluminum profile processing industry required a customized lifting solution for aluminum material handling under a monorail system. The project focused on maximizing lifting height in limited headroom conditions and ensuring stable operation over a long traveling distance.
Based on the customer’s workshop conditions and existing rail system, we provided two sets of 3-ton low headroom electric chain hoists. Without replacing the original rail, the solution achieved greater effective lifting height while ensuring safe and stable operation along the 80-meter traveling distance.
The two low headroom electric chain hoists have now been successfully completed, inspected, shipped, and delivered for operation. With their compact structure, smooth performance, and excellent space adaptability, the hoists effectively solved the customer’s challenges of limited headroom and long-distance material handling stability, providing a safer and more efficient lifting solution for aluminum profile transportation.
গ্রাহকের মূল প্রয়োজনীয়তা
- Space Utilization Requirement: The installation space on site was limited, so the customer required maximum effective lifting height under the existing monorail system to meet the lifting needs of aluminum profiles.
- Long Travel Operation Requirement: The traveling length reached 80 meters, requiring the electric chain hoists to operate smoothly with safe and stable power supply throughout the entire travel distance, while avoiding operation jamming and cable wear.
- Environmental Adaptability Requirement: Part of the operation was outdoors, so the equipment needed excellent waterproof and heat-resistant performance to ensure reliable operation under high-temperature outdoor conditions.
কাস্টমাইজড সমাধান
1. Low Headroom Electric Chain Hoist: Maximizing Lifting Height
To meet the customer’s requirement for maximum lifting height, we adopted a low headroom electric chain hoist design. By optimizing the layout of the hoist and trolley, the vertical space occupied by the equipment itself was reduced, allowing more effective lifting height within the limited installation space.
| Electric Chain Hoist Type | Hoist Occupied Height |
|---|---|
| Standard Electric Chain Hoist | 830 mm |
| Low Headroom Electric Chain Hoist | 640 mm |
The detailed specifications of the low headroom electric chain hoist are as follows:
- Capacity: 3 ton
- Lifting height: 7 m
- Lifting speed: 5.6 m/min
- Traveling speed: 11 m/min
- Control method: Pendant control + remote control
- Duty class: M3
- Voltage: 400V / 3Ph / 60Hz
- Safety devices: Equipped with lifting limit switch and overload protection device
- Equipped with transformer for independent use, suitable for 254 mm × 146 mm I-beam installation
2. Cable Suspension System: Ensuring Safe 80 m Operation
- The cable suspension system is designed with a stable support and guiding structure, allowing the cable to move smoothly with the equipment and distribute forces evenly. This reduces running resistance and local stress concentration, improving overall operational reliability and safety. It also effectively prevents cable pulling, dragging, and twisting risks during long travel operations.
- Each set of equipment is supplied with a 100 m, single-piece (non-cut) three-phase four-wire cable, fully meeting the requirements for long-distance wiring and power supply on site. This eliminates risks caused by cable joints, such as poor contact and insulation failure.
3. High-Temperature & Waterproof Design: Ensuring Safe Outdoor Operation
- The system is equipped with fully sealed, heat-resistant and waterproof power cables, ensuring stable and reliable performance under high-temperature outdoor conditions, with significantly higher environmental resistance than standard cables.
- The hoist chain is made of imported FEC80 super heat-treated alloy steel, allowing safe operation even in rainy conditions.
- The chain hoist is designed with special heat dissipation fins, enabling fast cooling to quickly offset both external high temperatures and internal heat buildup. This ensures the equipment operates without overheating, tripping, or interruption, maintaining stable and continuous performance in harsh environments.
প্রকল্পের ফলাফল
- Successfully completed the production, inspection, and international delivery of 2 sets of customized HHBB electric chain hoists. All parameters and performance fully met the customer’s operational requirements and site conditions.
- The low headroom structural design significantly improved space utilization, increasing effective lifting height by approximately 190 mm, effectively solving the problems of limited installation space and insufficient lifting height.
- A dedicated cable suspension system was equipped to prevent cable dragging, pulling, and twisting during long-distance operation, ensuring continuous, safe, and stable performance under the 80 m travel condition.
- A complete set of technical documents was provided, including CAD general arrangement drawings, electrical layout drawings, schematic diagrams, and wiring diagrams, helping the customer complete installation and commissioning efficiently.
