Features

While many wire rope hoists have upgrades and add-ons for a scale or flange width adder, the SMW Series includes them as the standard.

Load cell with LED display
The 3" display lets the operator know at a glance how many pounds the hoist is carrying. This adds safety and provides the ability to calculate load weights for freight companies.
Smooth operation
The Danfoss variable frequency drive regulates the motor’s speed and torque, enabling smooth acceleration and deceleration for smoothly and safely lifting and moving loads.
Wire rope drum guide
The rope drum is deeply grooved with stainless steel tube and a high tensile rope guide for optimum line arrangement, greater safety factor, and longer life.
H4 duty class
It's tried and tested for all day, everyday operation.
Fits up to 25" beams
While most WRHs require an upgrade for beam sizes of 25", the SMW Series includes it standard.
2-speed lifting motor
All hoists feature a heavy duty 2-speed lifting motor designed for long component life and ease of routine service.
