Fixed wire rope electric hoists are lifting devices without a travelling trolley, serving as light and small lifting mechanisms dedicated solely to vertical hoisting operations. Unlike conventional travelling electric hoists, these units are permanently mounted on beams, supports, or roof structures and cannot move horizontally along rails. Featuring a compact structure, strong adaptability, and lighter self-weight, fixed wire rope electric hoists are ideal for fixed-point lifting applications where horizontal material handling is not required.

Features of Fixed Wire Rope Electric Hoists
Flexible installation options: Different installation methods are available based on specific working conditions to suit a wider range of applications.
Durable construction with low cost: Priced about 30% lower than equivalent travelling electric hoists, eliminating the purchase and maintenance costs of trolleys, rail systems and related electrical control components.
Easy maintenance: The brake has a service life of over 1 million cycles, the motor is equipped with thermal protection, and the wire rope features corrosion and wear resistance for a long service life.
Simple structure: Consists only of a hoisting mechanism with no travelling mechanism, resulting in a more compact design and lighter weight.
High stability: Designed only for vertical lifting (no horizontal movement), minimizing load swing during operation to significantly reduce collision risks and enhance safety.
Installation Methods for Fixed Wire Rope Electric Hoists
Hook Suspension
The top hook or lifting ring of the hoist is directly hung on a crossbeam, support, or crane I-beam.
Features: The easiest installation method, allowing quick disassembly and relocation with high flexibility. Suitable for temporary operations or scenarios requiring frequent station changes; typically used for capacities ≤ 10 t.
Bolt Connection
The hoist is directly fixed to the mounting base of a concrete beam or steel structure using high-strength bolts.
Features: The most common method, offering convenient installation, reliable connection, and easy disassembly for maintenance.
Flange Connection
The hoist is fixed to the concrete beam or steel structure base by fastening bolts through the end flange plate, which fits closely to the contact surface.
Features: Standardized connection with firm attachment and high precision. Easy to disassemble and reassemble by simply removing the bolts; ensures uniform force distribution and strong overall stability.
Embedded Installation
The hoist anchor bolts are fixed inside the concrete beam or steel structure via embedded parts, achieving a compact installation layout.
Features: The most secure connection; the hoist is non-movable after installation. Ideal for permanent installation at critical lifting points.
Summary
The selection of the connection method mainly depends on whether the hoist needs to be relocated during its service life, load-bearing requirements, and the actual installation environment. You may provide your specific working conditions when purchasing, and our professional team will recommend the most suitable solution for you.
Installation Position Classification for Fixed Wire Rope Electric Hoists
When the hoist is suspended beneath the supporting beam, it features a simple structure and easy installation. This configuration is suitable for facilities with ample overhead height and applications requiring a large lifting height.
When the hoist body is mounted on top of the supporting beam, it maximizes the use of the space beneath the beam to optimize the effective lifting height. However, maintenance can be inconvenient due to the hoist’s higher, obstructed position. This setup is ideal for plants with limited overhead height where maximum effective lifting height is required.
When the hoist is fixed to the left side of the beam, the wire rope is led out from the side. This configuration suits specific workstation layouts; note that the beam must be structurally reinforced for this offset mounting. It is intended for side-lifting applications next to equipment or in space-constrained workstations.
When the hoist is fixed to the right side of the beam, the wire rope is led out from the side. This configuration suits specific workstation layouts; note that the beam must be structurally reinforced for this offset mounting. It is intended for side-lifting applications next to equipment or in space-constrained workstations.
How to determine the installation location of the electric hoist？
For facilities with ample overhead height, the most common A1 underhung mounting is typically preferred, as it allows for easy maintenance. When there is available space above the beam and there are specific requirements for headroom utilization, the A2 top-mounted configuration is a suitable option. If no overhead fixing points are available or a special layout is needed, side-mounted hoist installation can be selected.
Fixed Wire Rope Electric Hoists Specifications & Reference Prices
This section provides reference prices for fixed electric wire rope hoists. Unlike travelling hoists, fixed models eliminate the trolley mechanism, making them ideal for applications where cross-travel movement is not required. This simpler design helps reduce your initial investment cost while maintaining reliable lifting performance.

Application Scenarios of Fixed Wire Rope Electric Hoists
Fixed wire rope electric hoists are especially suitable for single-point repetitive operation scenarios, such as:
- Material loading and unloading, mold lifting at fixed factory workstations
- Cargo handling at designated fixed positions in warehouses
- Equipment installation, inspection and maintenance
- Fixed-point lifting in confined spaces such as construction sites, ship cabins and underground mines
- Fixed-point lifting operations supporting automated assembly lines
