WIRE ROPE HOISTS
TWIN HOOK MONORAIL HOISTS (B MODELS 4-7.5 TON)

twin hook monorail hoists

Twin Hook Hoists are a safe, reliable choice
when handling long bulky loads. Each hoist
is built to a specific Hook Centers that best
fits the given application. All hoists are built
around a WORM GEAR Drive, considered
to be the heart of the machine. Our hoists
meet or exceed the Performance Standards
for Overhead Wire Rope Hoists per ASME
HST-4 as well as the Safety Standards for
Overhead Hoist per ASME B30.16.

Standard Feature: Component Parts - Worm Gearing (H & T) Features
HOIST WORM GEARING
HOIST WORM GEAR 3D MODEL
We use Worm Gear Drives on all its Wire Rope Hoists, Drive Tractors and Bridge Crane End Trucks as standard.
Worm Gear Drives are rugged and reliable and offer smooth and quiet operation.

Due to their inherent friction, Worm Gear Drives also act very similar to brakes by retarding motion. For that reason,
brakes are generally NOT required on all our Worm Gear Trolleys, Drive Tractors or End Trucks. Heavy capacity,
high momentum systems operating without VFD controls are sometimes the exception. In these cases, the trolley or
crane may roll more than the acceptable limit without a brake.

For High-Ratio Worm Gear Hoists, there are some major advantages over other hoists.

• High-Ratio Worm Gears safely control the lifting load without the need for a Mechanical Load Brake.
• High-Ratio Worm Gears are inherently Self-Locking thus these hoists are very capable of acting as 2nd
   stopping brake and also holding up a load.
• Worm Gear Hoists have very Low Maintenance as fewer moving parts lead to fewer repairs
• High-Ratio Worm Gear Hoists Conform to CMAA, ASME and OSHA guidelines

Optional Feature: Component Parts -
Control Packages (Hoist, Trolley, Crane)

Custom Control Panels
Panel With VFD Hoist and Trolley Controls
controls with radio
We offer various Control Packages for all our Hoist and
Crane Equipment. Whether it is Standard or Custom, we
can build the control panel of your choice.

(VFD) Control Packages are slowly becoming very
popular and are almost standard on all new equipment
these days. The benefits of (VFD) Controls by far out-
weigh its initial costs. (VFD) Controls allow the operator
to precisely and safely control the load. Acceleration
and deceleration rates and 2-speed control limits are all
set to best support the given application. Any wear in-
duced on mechanical parts over time when using (VFD)
Controls is much less.

Custom Controls With Radio
Please see our photos for further reference on our control panels.
Optional Feature: Component Parts - Overload Limit Switch
overload limit switch
We offer an Overload Limit Switch that is mounted
underneath one of our trolleys as an OPTION. This
Overload Limit Switch can be purchased with a
NEW hoist or for an EXISTING hoist and installed
in the field with minimal effort. This switch is adjusted
within 5% and there is no loss of headroom.

Overload Limit Switch – Trolley Mounted

Optional Feature: Custom Hoists - Rope Guide Hoists

Heavy Duty Rope Guide System
Rope Guide Close Up -
Showing Drum and Upper Sheave
We offer a heavy duty Rope Guide System as a SAFETY option on all our NEW Standard Headroom Hoists.

This system features a heavy duty BRONZE Rope Guide and Slide as well as a DEEP GROOVED Drum; grooved
to 100% depth of the wire rope. Our Rope Guide System allows for moderate side pulling, slack cable conditions
and other load swings that may cause the wire rope to lose its proper groove and bind up or pile up on the drum.

This option should ALWAYS be a consideration on LONG LIFT hoist applications but especially on those in which
the operator is not able to clearly see the drum.

Please see our photos for further reference.

Machines are designed in accordance with our interpretation of the specifications of
the National Electric Code, Underwriters Laboratory and Factory Mutual but are
NOT tested by them, nor do they carry their label as a whole. However, most of the
Individual Electrical Components do carry an Underwriters Laboratory (UL) Label.

Please NOTE; the full responsibility for determining the existence and severity of a
hazard in a specific area rests with the (Authority) responsible for enforcing that code.

Additional NOTES:

• Machines are available for Class I (Vapors): Groups C & D and Class II
   (Dusts): Group E, F & G (As Division 1 or 2)
• We use TENV motors as standard on all Division 2 applications (With
   Contained Hazard) as permitted by NEC code.
• Any requirements for Spark Resistant Features in severe hazardous
   environments lies with the (Authority)
• Spark Resistant Features generally include Stainless Steel Wire Rope,
   Bronze Trolley Wheels and Bronze Hook and/or Complete Block.

• Oversized Hook – Hook Throat Opening and Radius
   shall allow ladle bail to fit firmly in the bowl of the hook.
Optional Feature: Custom Hoists - Hoist and Tractor Combinations
rope guide hoist with tractor drive For superior trolley performance utilize a Hoist & Tractor
Combination.

The consistently POSITIVE action of a drive tractor
will generally out-perform a standard motorized trolley
in many monorail applications.

By combining a drive tractor with your hoist, you will
better negotiate curves, ride up inclines and will eliminate
nuisance slipping in many severe working environments.

Furthermore, the inherent beam tension of a drive tractor
can also serve to RESIST motion in certain applications
particularly when load swing or side-pull present motion
issues.
