Wire Rope Electric Hoist Selection Guide: Types, Prices, and Features All Available

CD/MD Type Wire Rope Electric Hoist

CD/MD type wire rope electric hoists are available in single or double speed configurations. The CD model is a single-speed hoist suitable for lifting general materials. The MD model is a dual-speed hoist with fast or slow speeds, enabling precise positioning and flexible operation. Widely used in factories, warehouses, and other places.

Explosion-proof Wire Rope Electric Hoist

The explosion-proof wire rope electric hoist is a type of lifting equipment designed for use in flammable, explosive, and dusty environments. Its motor, electronic control system, and mechanical components all adopt explosion-proof structures, effectively avoiding safety hazards caused by electric sparks, static electricity, or high temperatures. It can be used in petroleum, chemical, coal mines, and natural gas for completing material lifting operations.

European Electric Hoist

The European electric hoist is a type of lifting equipment that utilizes advanced European design concepts and manufacturing standards. Compared to CD/MD-type electric hoists, the European-style electric hoist emphasizes safety and intelligence. The whole equipment has a more compact structure and a smaller size. Equipped with variable frequency speed regulation, anti-sway control, and precise positioning functions, it is suitable for applications requiring high efficiency and reliability, such as factories and machinery manufacturing.

Low-headroom Electric Wire Rope Hoist

A low-headroom electric wire rope hoist is designed specifically for factories or work environments with limited height. By combining a lifting mechanism with a trolley, the distance between the hook and the rail is minimized, achieving greater lifting height within a limited space. It not only has the characteristics of high lifting capacity, smooth operation, and easy operation of traditional electric hoists, but also can effectively improve the utilization rate of factory space. It is widely used in warehouses, workshops, assembly lines, and other places with limited space.

Metallurgical Electric Wire Rope Hoist

The metallurgical electric wire rope hoist is specially designed for the metallurgical industry’s lifting. It is mainly used for steel mills and foundries in high-temperature, dusty, and heavy-load environments for lifting operations. Equipped with a high-temperature resistant motor, double braking system, overload protection, and high-strength steel wire rope, it ensures safety and reliability even in high-intensity and continuous operations. This equipment can not only complete the lifting of molten metal, molds, and heavy workpieces, but also meet the metallurgical industry’s strict requirements for high safety factors and long life.

In May, VOITTO exported five electric wire rope hoists to Peru to improve handling efficiency and production safety in the workshop. Below are the product specifications.

• Lifting capacity: 2 tons
• Lifting height: 8 ~ 27 m
• Lifting speed: 0.8/8 m/min
• Travel speed: 20 m/min
• Working Class: M3

After the equipment was installed and put into operation, the customer expressed that the wire rope electric hoist continued to operate smoothly and accurately under heavy working conditions, and that it also reduced energy consumption and maintenance costs. The customer also expressed high praise for VOITTO’s product quality, technical strength, and after-sales service.
