10 ABUS Hoists: Packed with Power for Jib Cranes

The ABUS Range of Electric Chain HoistsABUS electric chain hoists provide excellent liftingpower in the 80 to 3,200 kg class. Different sizes, with lifting speeds from 1 to 20 m/min, are available.Thanks to their compact size and the precision liftingspeed which is standard equipment, ABUS electric chainhoists move loads both rapidly and smoothly.

The ABUS GM Electric WireRope Hoist RangeABUS GM electric wire rope hoists cover the essentialload range from 1 to 100 tonnes. Five basic models areavailable, all with main and precision lifting speeds asstandard equipment. And all these units are small. Allcomponents feature endurance – from motors to ropes,from gears to brakes, from power systems to electroniccircuitry.

11ABUS Jib Crane Components: HelpingHands which Really Ease the Load

ABUS Electric TrolleysElectric trolleys are always a help, but they are highlyrecommended for loads above 500 kg or jib lengthsabove 4 m. ABUS electric trolleys have two speeds as a standard feature.

ABUS Electric Slewing GearsABUS electric slewing gears permit precise positioning,increasing safety at work. They are especially recommended for loads above 500 kg and jib lengthsabove 6 m. The standard features include two slewing speeds.

Mobile ControlsABUS jib cranes and their hoists are controlled using an ABUCommander. If the pendant control is mountedon a separate rail, it can be moved independently of thehoist. Mobile controls are essential items of equipmentcombined with an electric trolley and/or slewing gear.

Steel Base PlatesPillar jib cranes are normally installed on foundationswith anchor bolts grouted to the foundation. However,there is often insufficient space for a foundation. In suchcases, ABUS has a safe and economical alternative:installation of the crane on a steel base plate.The savings in terms of cost and space can amount to up to 50 %.
