Electric hoists are motorized lifting equipment that connect with compatible power sources to lift and move heavy loads. They require powered connections that match their operating voltage. Also known as electrically powered hoists, they have handle controls that allow operators to position loads without much physical effort. The main types of electric hoists are the electric wire rope hoist and electric chain hoist.

Electric wire rope hoist is a small-sized lifting equipment, which can be used alone or mounted on various types of crane as a lifting mechanism.With slight modification, it can also be used as a winch. It is widely used in factories, warehouses, mines, harbors, cargo storage areas and shops, essential in raising working efficiency and improving working conditions.

Electric wire rope hoist has two models: CD and MD. Model CD has only one speed, which can satisfy normal application, model MD has two speeds: normal speed and low speed, at a low speed, it can do precise loading and unloading, mounding of sandbox, maintenance of machines, etc.

Electric chain hoists provide true vertical lift with no sideways movement. Trolley-mounted electric chain hoists lift and move loads side to side on I-beams and rails. Electric chain hoist are mainly consisted of motor, transmission mechanism and chain wheel, etc. The inside gears of electric chain hoist are hot quenched which increases the wear resistance of the gear and toughness. Electric chain hoists have the features of delicate outlook, solid durability, etc.

The low headroom electric hoist is a special type electric hoist which is optimized and improved on the basis of ordinary electric hoists and designed with more higher lifting height. Under the same conditions, the smaller the size from the hook center to the top of the hoist, the greater the lifting height. This kind of electric hoist is usually used in working conditions that have specific requirements for lifting height and limited upper space.
