Product Fundamentals
How Does an Electric Chain Hoist Work?
When the operator activates the control, the electric motor transfers power through the internal drive mechanism. The load chain moves through the hoist body, causing the lower hook to raise or lower the load.
-
Operator activates the control
The pendant or control device sends the command.
-
Motor provides lifting power
The electric motor converts electrical energy to mechanical power.
-
Internal drive transfers output
The drive mechanism transmits motor output to the chain mechanism.
-
Chain mechanism moves the load chain
The chain-lifting mechanism raises or lowers the load chain.
-
Lower hook raises or lowers the load
The load is lifted or lowered as required.
-
Braking and control system manages movement
The brake holds the load when the control is released.
Main Components
- Electric motor
- Hoist body
- Internal drive mechanism
- Braking mechanism
- Load chain
- Chain container
- Upper suspension / trolley
- Lower hook
- Pendant / control device
- Electrical control components
