This is the first time that Mr. Wellington choose to cooperate with us, Dongqi Group-Yuantai Cranes and Hoists for getting the electric chain hoists. Mr. Wellingtons engaged in paper industry production, he needs light and flexible lifting equipment, and initially hesitated to choose a polipastos eléctricos de cadena or a polipasto de cable for his application. Our sales manager Ms. Mia provided a detailed comparison of two hoist solutions for customers to select. Finally our customer chose the polipastos eléctricos de cadena with hook type.
Why choose an electric chain hoist?
- Electricity is almost universally available and inexpensive.
- Productivity, ergonomics, and safety are enhanced.
- They are normally smaller and more compact than wire rope hoists, as a drum is not required to store wire rope.

- Portability is excellent as standard hook mounting allows simplified installation (Lug mount required on polipasto de cable to wrap rope on drum precisely).
- Lift can be changed at any time with minimal cost by simply changing chain length.
- Numerous configurations and speeds are available in lighter capacities.
