              • ST Chain hoist

              • The loyal companion for everyday tasks
                The ST chain hoist programme ranks among the most distinctive and comprehensive on offer worldwide. It is strong, reliable and modest when it comes to maintenance and energy consumption. The modular system enables innumerable combinations of the subassemblies for customised solutions. With 6 variants available, the ST chain hoist covers the lifting capacity range from 125 kg to 6,300 kg. The portfolio is supplemented by special models such as the STK extra short headroom trolley and the STD dual chain hoist for long material and lifting beams. The chain hoists are also available in explosion-proof design for Zone 1, Zone 21 and Zone 22.

                Features and Benefits

                • Extensive chain hoist range for lifting capacities from 125 kg to 6,300 kg
                • Suspension directly from the chain guide of solid cast iron
                • Easy inspection and maintenance of the chain drive thanks to overmounted drive shaft
                • Extremely short and compact construction ensures that space can be utilised to the maximum
                • High ISO classification according to FEM/ISO standards
                • Modern Kanban production, available fast
                • Available as an option in explosion protected design complying with ATEX and IECEx
              • STK Chain Hoist

              • Maximum lifting heights in low rooms
                The STK [extra] short headroom trolley sets new standards. The construction of the short headroom trolley alone saves a tremendous amount of space. The body of the chain hoist is mounted at an angle, meaning that no return sheave is required, thereby allowing a 33 % reduction in headroom. With its headroom reduced by 60 %, the extra short headroom trolley achieves, by contrast, maximum hook paths. The distance from the underside of the beam to the bed of the hook is just 210 mm at a load capacity of 5,000 kg and even just 185 mm at a load capacity of 3,200 kg. The patented chain drive with two separate, but synchronised chains is unique. The load is lifted and positioned exactly without swinging or vibration. The chain hoists are also available in explosion-proof design for Zone 1, Zone 21 and Zone 22.

                Features and Benefints

                • Very compact dimensions for maximum use of halls

              • STD dual chain hoist

              • Safe transport of long loads
                The STD dual chain hoist was developed specifically for long material and loads that need to be picked up at two points. It is equipped with two load chains, which are moved synchronously by a hoist motor. The hook spacing can be selected at will in dependence on the material being transported. The two synchronised rope lead-offs lift and transport the load without dangerous slant by design. The two load hooks work absolutely safely and in sync even in the case of materials of different lengths or uneven loading. Thanks to its low headroom, the STD dual chain hoist is also suitable for low buildings and achieves maximum hook paths. The chain hoists are also available in explosionproof design for Zone 1, Zone 21 and Zone 22.

                Features and Benefits

                • Low space requirement permitting maximum height of lift

                  • The tried and tested all-rounder
                    The SH wire rope hoist programme is used around the world in many different applications. Compact, strong, particularly maintenance-friendly and an ideal when it comes to combining quality, flexibility and performance. The module system enables almost unlimited combinations of the components. Coming in five sizes with 26 S.W.L. variants, the SH series covers the safe working load range from 500 kg to 25,000 kg. The new SH 6080 wire rope hoist extends the versatile SH wire rope hoist range to safe working loads up to 32,000 kg. The wire rope hoists can be used in stationary applications or together with trolleys in standard cranes, off-standard cranes or systems building. If wanted, the complete wire rope hoist programme is also available in explosion-proof design for Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21 or Zone 22.

                    Features and Benefits
                    • 5 sizes, 26 S.W.L. variants
                    • Stationary version or various trolleys for cranes and systems building

                  • AS 7 wire rope hoist

                  • The compact powerhouse
                    The AS 7 series is designed in two variants for the upper lifting capacity range to 125,000 kg. The ASR 7 wire rope hoist is the reduced version of the tried-and-tested AS 7 wire rope hoist. It is designed for a safe working load range from 20,000 kg to 32,000 kg and closes the gap between efficient use of the SH wire rope hoist programme and the AS 7 wire rope hoist programme. The revised design as twin hoist covers the same fields of application as the AS 7 wire rope hoist, albeit with higher lifting capacities, greater lifting heights and faster lifting movements. One important safety feature of the AS 7 wire rope hoist when designed as twin hoist is its exact positioning of the load. As the rope of the twin hoist runs in opposite directions simultaneously, the load is lifted and lowered without any sideways movement of the hook. If wanted, the complete wire rope hoist programme is also available in explosion-proof design for Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21 or Zone 22.

                    Features and Benefits

                    • Two designs for load capacities up to 125,000 kg

                    • Higher load capacity, hoisting speed and lifting height as twin hoist
                    • Largely maintenance-free, low wear, long service life according to FEM/ISO standards
                    • Optionally available in explosion-proof design according to ATEX, IECEx
                  • SHW 8 winch

                  • Top technology for the heaviest of loads and high demands
                    The SHW 8 winch program is based on the tried-and-tested SH wire rope hoist program and is designed for the high-load bracket up to 160,000 kg. Its strong hoist motors and robust, low-maintenance design make it ideal for tough everyday use. Compared to wire rope hoists, winches only need a few rope reevings even for high loads, making a very compact construction possible. To enable a variety of different economical solutions, there are three motors up to 38 kW with two speeds in a ratio of 1:6 available for the SHW 8 winch. For higher ease of use, there are six hoist motors up to 98 kW with stepless speed control. All travel drives are equipped as standard with soft start. The SHW 8 winch is available on request with high-performance frequency inverters or with individually adapted speeds. The winch programme is also available in explosion-proof design for Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21 or Zone 22.

TDC wire rope hoists are suitable for the transport of molten metals and for use in high-risk applications: e.g. acids, alkalis, gases or transport through gas and acid pipelines. They are equipped as standard with two redundant motor/gearbox units. Generally, both motors are actuated synchronously. Each of the brakes mounted on the two motors are designed such that they are able to brake or hold the load on their own in an emergency. Both brakes are actuated together and serve as operating and holding brake. All drives in Twin Drive Concept wire rope hoists are monitored by condition monitoring systems from STAHL CraneSystems.

                        The LNG hoists from STAHL CraneSystems are designed specifically for maintenance work on liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanks. Due to their high-quality components, robust construction, corrosion-resistant finishes and many other features, they are ideally suited for use in coastal regions with demanding climatic conditions. The pumps, which pump the cold liquefied natural gas (–164 °C to –161 °C) in a pipe system, must be lifted out of the approximately 70 metre high tanks into the open for maintenance work up to five times a year. In view of the extreme conditions in the tank, special ropes, which are fastened permanently to the liquefied natural gas pump and therefore spend their lives in the tank, are needed for this. When maintenance work needs to be carried out, these ropes are fastened to the rope drum and hoist with quick fasteners.
