Electric Wire Rope Hoist


         How To Use : Electric Wire Rope Hoist



Electric Wire Rope hoist is composed of an electric motor, Gearboxes, Rope drum 
with rope guides, electric panel and large wire rope connected to a hook. Electric 
Wire Rope Hoists are used to carry large objects weighing between 500 Kgs
 and 20 tons in various conditions like severe heat while welding, over the
 burners and furnaces or in the acidic atmosphere. Before purchasing 
and using a wire rope hoist, you must get the requirement clear and place
 an order accordingly. Often you will need to be instructed and trained in 
the use of the wire rope hoist by a hoist provider or by someone knowledgeable
 about hoist operations. Instructions
  1. Voltage Check: Check to make sure the voltage of the electric wire rope hoist and the motor correspond to the voltage of the power supply you plan to use. Connect the hoist to the power supply only if the voltage will support it. Voltage is proportional to the speed of the hoist. Even in case of minor difference, the speed obtained will be different than mentioned in the manual.
  2. Check the lubrication: Make sure the gearboxes are filled up to the mark by recommended oil in the hoist and the end carriages of the EOT Crane.
  3. Test buttons: Test your control switches before your electric hoist is carrying a load. Test your emergency stop button by pressing it, and making sure the wire rope hoist ceases movement. You can release the emergency stop button by turning it to the left as shown over the switch.
  4. Tangling of wire rope: Lower the rope all the way to make sure your rope is not tangled by lowering or lifting it. If the rope is tangled, make sure to untangle it.
  5. Test the limit Switches: This is a very important check that needs to be done. Test the hoist limit switch, pressing the up button all the way. The limit switch should disconnect when the hook reaches the top of the hoist. Repeat the test by pressing the down button.
  6. Check Cross Travel Motion: Press the second set of arrows on your control switch to move the crane to the right or to the left. Check the cross travel limit switches working by taking the hoist to the extreme of the monorail or the Crane Bridge.
  7. Check the Crane Motion: Press the third set of arrows on your control switch to move the crane horizontally. Check the cross travel limit switches working by taking the crane to the extreme of the gantry rails.
  8. Trial run with the load: Press the down arrow in the first set of arrows on your control switch to lower the crane. When your hook has been attached to your load, you can press the up arrow to lift the load. Use the second and third sets of arrows to direct the load to its destination.
  9. Do not try other’s luck: Do not operate the electric wire rope hoist if people are under it. Stop the hoist and wait until the coast is clear.

How To Install A Electric Chain Hoist?

Things to create positive before installation: The  electric chain hoist  and  trolley   are prepackaged severally. first, check if the number of the  hoist  accords with the number of units in the invoice and if their area unit any damages occurred from the transportation or abnormal packing. Also, Check the plate and see if the rated capacity, lifting speed, lifting height,  cross traveling   speed in addition because the power provide is up to plain. Check if screws of prime hook set are loosed and if the chains are knotted and twisted. 1. Check the track where the hoist and trolley combo is to be mounted: The run track of the hoist adopted is the I- Beam steel. The range of width is 75-180 mm for 1T - 2T and 100-180 mm for 3T-5T. The track for running should be smooth and its swerve radius cannot but the minimum radius stipulated within the plate. the location of axle height at the tip of the track should be mounted a physical property b...

For companies requiring overhead lifting operations, taking steps to avoid crane failure is critical to ensuring the safety of workers and overall efficiency of operations. No matter the specific  industry  or type of job site, taking a number of simple precautions can greatly reduce the risk of overhead crane failure. Employing high-quality, reliable  inspecting equipment  is critical for determining whether any mechanical problems are present that may lead to accidents. Inspections should involve checking for cracks, faulty wiring, worn-out ropes, and damaged parts. Crane technicians must also make sure the crane doesn’t exceed rated capacity and that all safety devices are working properly. Initial inspection — This consists of an inspection in accordance with the original manufacturer’s recommendations, as well as documentation of the inspection. Pre-shift inspection — This consists of an inspection in accordance with crane-operator. Frequent inspections ...
