Aluminium Four Point Lifting Frame with Adjustable Drop Centres
Aluminium Lifting Beams & Frames
A range of aluminium lifting beams and spreader frames
Our range of aluminium lifting beams and spreader beams includes four point lifting frames and centre eye lifting beams, both with the option of fixed or adjustable drop centres.
The use of aluminium give you major benefits as its lighter than its steel equivalent, making it possible to utilise more of the hoists lifting capacity than using a beam of steel construction, so therefore you are able to pick up larger loads with the same hoist.
If this range does not suit your particular application, please talk to our technical sales team who will be able to quote you for a bespoke lifting or spreader beam / frame, that will be suitable for your lifting operation.
LIFTING BEAMS, SPREADERS AND FRAMES
Lifting beams, spreaders and frames can be designed for general purpose or as bespoke beams for a specific use with a planned range of lifts.
Lifting beams, etc. are used for a variety of purposes which can include Reduce required headroom when lifting loads, Provide multiple lifting points, Offer a means of handling out of balance loads, Provide lifting points at adjustable centres, Provide a vertical lift with controlled or no inward pull for eyebolts and similar lifting points and loads which must be protected from crushing force,
A means of handling loads requiring special attachments such as hooks, plate clamps, etc.
10T LIFTING BEAM FOR HYDRO-POWER CUSTOMER
Our customer operates within the hydro-power sector and required a robust lifting solution to manage loads with varying weights in an industrial operation.
The customers intended application is to lift large and cumbersome machinery, so the application required the maximum possible height of lift. Due to the varied size and weight of the loads, our customer required a 10,000kg safe working load (SWL) and the weight of the load would need to be distributed evenly during lifting, ensuring a safe and controlled lift. The lifting solution required should be flexible, configurable in a low headroom environment and rated to the correct lifting capacity.
