When it comes to lifting heavy loads efficiently and safely, most commonly, people turn to an electric chain hoist. But at Lifting Equipment Store, we have the capabilities to create custom electric hoists filled with features built to specifically accommodate your unique application – you could say we’re offering you the chance to build the ultimate lifting solution!

Unlike off-the-shelf models, a custom hoist is specifically tailored to your requirements, guaranteeing peak performance, optimal reliability, and enhanced safety in any operating environment. Whether that be a high-risk setting such as a chemical or food grade space, or you simply need some specialized features such as tandem lifting functionality, our personalized approach to electric hoist building delivers unmatched results.

WHY CHOOSE A CUSTOM ELECTRIC CHAIN HOIST?

We understand that every operation is different, and often, a one-size-fits-all-solution simply falls short of the mark. Customizing your electric hoist will allow you to address your unique challenges head on. Here’s just a few reasons why customization can make a difference:

Custom Height of Lift: Typically, standard models offer up to 20m height of lift, but we can go even further. You name the length, we can make it.

Capacity Adjustments: We can engineer custom hoists that are capable of handling incredibly heavy loads, while maintaining optimal safety, performance, and longevity.

Variable Speeds: We can fine-tune your hoists lifting and lowering speeds to match the pace of your workflow, driving productivity forward, whilst ensuring total precision.

Tailored Suspension: Custom hoist solutions are ideal whether you need a stationary, trolley-mounted, or low clearance system.

Environmental Concerns: We can design custom hoists that are suitable for outdoor usage, food grade compliant, and even ATEX certified.

Safety Features: Opting for a custom system allows you to consider introducing enhanced safety features from overload protection to explosion-proof components. The ability to customize safety mechanisms will ensure that your team and equipment are always secure.

Specialist Features: Why not consider things such as tandem lifting functionality. We can give you to option to lift four loads simultaneously.

Remote Control & Automation: Introduce wireless radio controls for safe-distance operation, even in those hard-to-reach areas.

WHERE IS A CUSTOM HOIST MOST SUITED?

Custom electric chain hoists are ideal where standard options effectively can’t meet the demands. Some environments where custom solutions are most suited include:

Hazardous Areas: Industries such as oil & gas, mining, and chemical processing are the perfect example. These environments often require explosion-proof hoists and corrosion-resistant materials to ensure total safety in such extreme conditions.

Cleanrooms & Food Processing: Facilities with strict hygiene requirements such as pharmaceutical production and food processing hugely benefit from stainless steel components, sealed motors, and smooth exterior finishes to facilitate easy cleaning, maintenance, and compliance with stringent regulations.

High-Cycle Operations: Manufacturing facilities or assembly lines that run around the clock require heavy-duty hoists built with optimal durability in mind. This allows for minimal downtime and disruption.

Confined Space: Tighter areas such as shipyards and warehouses with low ceilings require compact, low-clearance profiles to enable businesses to maximize their operational efficiency.

WHY BESPOKE SOLUTIONS BEAT STANDARD OPTIONS

While standard electric chain hoists offer a range of exceptional lifting capabilities, suitable for handling basic lifting tasks, they sometimes lack the precision, enhanced features, and durability required for more specialized applications. Investing in a custom solution will ensure:

• Perfect Fit for Your Application: Avoid unnecessary modifications through adapting a standard model.
• Improved Longevity: A hoist designed for specific application and environment will always outlast a standard unsuitable model, saving money on regular replacement and repairs.
• Increased Productivity: Custom features such as faster speeds and ergonomic controls will help to streamline operations.
• Optimal Safety: Specialized safety enhancements will keep operators safe, minimize risks, and ensure compliance, even in the most extreme environments.
