FAQ

Q: When should I choose the MD (dual-speed) model over the CD (single-speed) model?
A: Choose the MD model if your work involves precision. The slow speed is crucial for gently setting down valuable items, aligning parts for assembly, or handling fragile loads. If your primary need is simply to lift and move items quickly, the more economical CD model is an excellent choice.

Q: Can this 5-ton hoist be installed on my existing crane beam?
A: Yes, it is designed to run on standard I-beams. To ensure compatibility, you need to confirm that your beam’s load capacity is sufficient for the crane and a 5-ton load. Please provide us with the I-beam model (e.g., 32b) so we can ensure the hoist trolley wheels are a perfect match.

Q: What is a conical rotor brake motor?
A: It’s a clever and highly reliable motor design where the brake is an integral part of the motor’s rotor. When power is cut, the rotor shifts slightly, engaging the brake automatically. It’s a simple, fail-safe system that is very effective and easy to maintain.

Q: What information should I provide to get a quick and accurate quote?
A: For the fastest quote, please tell us: 1) The capacity you need (3 ton or 5 ton), 2) Your required lifting height, 3) Whether you want single speed (CD) or dual speed (MD), and 4) Your facility’s power supply (Voltage, Hz, Phase).

Q: How does Weiyuan guarantee the quality of its 3-5 ton hoists?
A: With nearly 40 years of specialized manufacturing experience, Weiyuan produces every CD/MD hoist under a strict ISO-certified quality system. We use proven designs, high-quality materials, and conduct full load and performance testing on every unit before it leaves our factory, ensuring it meets our high standards for safety, reliability, and longevity.
