Lifting Mechanism
hoist

Hoist is a lifting mechanism used to lift materials and to transport them when equipped with travelling drive system. The lifting is achieved by using wire rope or link chain. There are different types of hoists available in the market, including electric wire rope hoists, electric chain hoists, manual chain hoists, pneumatic hoists, etc.


The hoist mounting is either base mounting,top mounting or side mounting depending on the application and the hoist configuration. Hoist is the key and important component in any of the crane applications. In view of this we choose to Stahl from Germany ever since Excellift was formed. This formidable relationship with this highly reputable brand from Europe has been strengthened year after year.
