Product Advantages
High-Strength and Durable Construction
Built with a lightweight yet robust aluminum alloy shell, this hoist offers excellent heat dissipation and a fully enclosed design suitable for demanding environments. The G80 heat-treated alloy steel chain ensures superior strength and wear resistance for safe and long-lasting operation.
Advanced Safety and Reliability
Equipped with a side magnetic braking system, the hoist provides instant braking upon power disconnection, ensuring load security. It also features an upper and lower limit switch to prevent chain over-travel and a reverse phase sequence protection device that stops the motor if the power supply is wired incorrectly.
Compact and Efficient Design
The hoist features a compact structure and lightweight body, making it easy to install and operate. Its high-efficiency motor and reliable gearing system provide smooth and stable lifting, minimizing noise and maximizing productivity.
Versatile Configuration Options
This electric chain hoist can be configured as a fixed, hook-mounted unit or paired with a manual or electric trolley for horizontal movement. Dual-speed models are available, offering a normal speed for efficiency and a low speed for precise positioning of sensitive loads.
User-Friendly Operation
Controlled via a durable, waterproof pendant with an emergency stop button, the hoist ensures safe and convenient operation. An optional wireless remote control is also available, providing greater flexibility and allowing the operator to maintain a safe distance from the load.
Application Scenarios
Manufacturing and Assembly Lines
Ideal for lifting components, moving finished products, and positioning materials on assembly lines. Its precision and reliability improve workflow and reduce manual labor.
Warehousing and Logistics
Efficiently loads and unloads goods from trucks, lifts heavy items onto shelving, and manages inventory in warehouses and distribution centers. The trolley option allows for easy movement across the facility.

FAQ
Q: Can this hoist be equipped with a trolley for horizontal movement?
A: Yes, the Weiyuan Electric Chain Hoist is available in two main types: a hook-suspended version for fixed-point lifting and a trolley-mounted version (manual or electric) that can travel along an I-beam for horizontal material transport.
Q: What is the benefit of a dual-speed hoist?
A: A dual-speed hoist offers greater operational flexibility. The fast speed is used for efficient lifting of standard loads, while the slow speed allows for precise and careful positioning, which is ideal for fragile items, mold setting, or delicate assembly tasks.
Q: Is the hoist suitable for outdoor use?
A: Yes, the hoist is designed with a high protection class (IP54/IP55), making it resistant to dust and water splashes. For dedicated outdoor use, we can provide additional weather-proofing measures to ensure long-term durability.
Q: What power supply does the electric chain hoist require?
A: The standard hoist operates on a three-phase power supply, such as 380V/50Hz. However, as a manufacturer, Weiyuan can customize the voltage and frequency to match the specific electrical standards of your country or facility.
Q: How do you ensure the quality and safety of the hoist?
A: With nearly 40 years of manufacturing experience, Weiyuan adheres to a strict quality control system. Every hoist is built with high-quality components, including a certified G80 chain, and undergoes rigorous testing for load capacity, braking, and all safety functions before shipment. A detailed test report is provided with every order.
