2 Ton Electric Wire Rope Hoist For Sale

Why Choose a 2 Ton Electric Wire Rope Hoist?

A 2-ton capacity hits the sweet spot for countless industrial and commercial applications. Whether you’re working in:

• 1. Vervaardiging & Assembly: Moving machinery parts, raw materials, or finished products.
• 2. Pakhuis & Logistiek: Loading/unloading trucks, stacking pallets, or positioning inventory.
• 3. Konstruksieterreine: Lifting building materials, tools, or equipment to different levels.
• 4. Automotive Shops: Hoisting engines, transmissions, or vehicle bodies.
• 5. Maintenance & Repair Facilities: Handling heavy components for servicing.
• 6. Mining & Energy: Supporting equipment installation and maintenance.

Key Features of Our 2 Ton Hoists

• 1. Powerful & Reliable: Driven by robust electric motors, these hoists deliver consistent lifting power for your 2-ton loads, shift after shift.

• 2. Superior Lifting Height: The wire rope design offers significant hook travel, far exceeding typical chain hoist capabilities, providing greater flexibility in your workspace.

• 3. Verbeterde veiligheid: Built-in safety features are paramount. Expect overload protection, emergency stop functions, thermal protection, and limit switches (upper and lower) as standard to safeguard personnel and equipment.

• 4. Durable Construction: Engineered with heavy-duty components – hardened wire rope, rugged gearboxes, and sturdy frames – ensuring longevity even in demanding environments.

• 5. Smooth & Precise Control: Variable speed options (often standard or available) allow for delicate positioning and controlled lowering, minimizing load swing and improving accuracy.

• 6. Versatile Mounting: Compatible with various setups – use with a trolley on an I-beam monorail, integrate into a gantry crane system, or mount on a fixed jib crane.

• 7. Low Maintenance: Electric wire rope hoists are renowned for requiring less frequent maintenance compared to chain hoists, reducing downtime and operational costs.

• 8. Compliance: Designed and manufactured to meet or exceed relevant industry safety standards (Bv., ASME B30.16, CMAA).

Safe & Efficient Operation

Getting the most out of your 2-ton hoist means operating it correctly and safely:

• 1. Operator Training: Ensure all personnel operating the hoist are thoroughly trained on its specific controls, safety features, load limits, and safe rigging practices. Understanding load dynamics and center of gravity is essential.
• 2. Pre-Operational Checks: Make it routine! Before each shift, operators should inspect the wire rope for kinks, broken wires, or excessive wear; check hook latches and swivels; test limit switches and emergency stop functions; and ensure the pendant/remote control is functioning correctly. Look for any loose fasteners or unusual noises.
• 3. Safe Rigging Practices: The hoist is only as strong as the rigging beneath it. Always use appropriately rated slings, shackles, and hooks. Inspect rigging gear regularly and remove damaged items from service immediately. Never exceed the hoist’s rated capacity (2 tons / 4000 lbs).
• 4. Respect the Environment: Operate the hoist within its specified environmental limits (temperature, humidity, dust, chemicals). Avoid side-pulling or shocking the load.

What to Consider When Purchasing

• 1. Lifting Height: Determine the exact distance you need to lift your loads from the lowest to the highest point.
• 2. Duty Cycle/Class: How frequently will the hoist be used? (Bv., CMAA Class C (Moderate) or D (Heavy Duty)).
• 3. Voltage & Phase: Ensure the hoist matches your facility’s power supply (Bv., 110V/1ph, 220V/1ph, 220V/3ph, 460V/3ph).
• 4. Speed Requirements: Standard lift speeds are common, but variable speed or dual-speed options offer greater control.
• 5. Control Type: Pendant control (wired or wireless) is standard. Radio remote control is a popular upgrade for safety and convenience.
• 6. Environment: Will the hoist be used indoors, outdoors, in dusty, wet, or potentially explosive (hazardous) areas? Specify if special protection (IP rating, explosion-proof) is needed.
• 7. Mounting: Do you need a trolley? What beam size will it run on?
