For smaller manufacturers and assembly plants, adaptability and mobility are key factors. Hand-powered devices such as a gantry, hoist, or crane make both possible. Hooks or bolts can be removed from one point, and the devices can be quickly transferred to other areas. The entire set-up can be quickly rolled to a new location when attached to a gantry. Protek Crane Solutions offers an extensive inventory to meet these needs.
An excellent choice is one of our freestanding jib cranes from SPANCO. The 402M-16-14 is an articulating model designed for indoor use and can lift 500 pounds. Key features include the following:
- Articulating Jib – The swing arm can be manipulated to the extent of its 16-foot work span or precisely place an item within that area.
- Exceptional Hook Height – The 14-foot height allows personnel and large items to move freely underneath the articulating arm without stepping under the workload.
Another option is the Harrington CX003-10. This hand-chain hoist has a compact design that is perfect for small operations. It weighs only seven pounds, so one person can transfer it to various locations in just a few minutes. This model lifts 500 pounds and has a metal chain guide, which provides smooth operation and improves durability. It comes with these features:
- Grade 100 Steel Chain
- Weston Style Brake
- Aluminum Shell Resists Dirt and Corrosion
- Carbon Steel Lifting Hook
Regarding gantry cranes, a sturdy, reliable option is the ALU0808 from SPANCO. It has an adjustable height for multiple operations and can easily lift 2000 pounds. It is also designed to protect the floor and travel efficiently across it. Key attributes include:
- Easily disassembled and reassembled by one or two employees for quick movement between locations and minimum downtime
