Case Study: Air Wire Rope Hoist
Customer Location: North America
Scenario: The customers need was for a hot dip galvanizing application. They could not use a chain hoist, as the splatter on the chain would ruin the pocket sheaves.
Solution: Combination of multiple Winches and Hoists
Our technical team designed an air wire rope hoist and we were able to quickly provide the customer a solution for their factories. Since we developed this design, we have built 10 additional units for this customer.
