Features

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 2-speed lifting motor

    All hoists feature a heavy duty 2-speed lifting motor designed for long component life and ease of routine service.

  • H4 duty class

    It's tried and tested for all day, everyday operation.
