Lifting beams: Useful information

Type and action:

The following standard adjustments and standard variants are possible, all features can be combined in any way you wish.

Crane side: Two, three or four leg chain sling, including with chain shorteners. The load's centre of gravity can be determined by shortening individual or several chains. Anchorage (e.g. suspension eye), rigid, symmetrical or asymmetrical arrangement. Anchorage in grid, adjustable anchorage with trolley manually adjustable using winch chain (including under full load) Anchorage with trolley adjustable via electric motor (including under full load)

Type: Planar options, e.g. lifting beam, spreader beam, Spatial options, e.g. H lifting beams, frame of beams

Load side: Rigid attachment points, Adjustable attachment points in grid, attachment points on trolley, manually adjustable using winch chain, attachment points on trolleys, adjustable using electric motor

Use instructions: Please read and follow! When a load is lifted the crane hook must always be positioned above the load's centre of gravity. If the crane hook is not above the load's centre of gravity, on lifting the whole system will tilt until the centre of gravity is positioned underneath the crane hook. The higher the lifting beams are the less the system must tilt to take up the position with the load's centre of gravity underneath the crane hook. As the lifting beam with load never hangs absolutely horizontally, an allowable tilt has been defined. According to EN 13155, a lifting beam tilt of max. 6° is allowed. On attaching the load, the level of the position of the load's centre of gravity must be noted and subjected to critical assessment! There is no cause for concern if the load's centre of gravity is positioned lower than the load attachment points. Particular attention is required if the load's centre of gravity is higher than the load attachment points! Please contact us!
