Lifting loads is not always straight forward and sometimes standard lifting equipment is simply not suitable for lifting the object required. Sometimes this is due to the location of the object or it may be the object itself. You might find that the
standard gantries are not up to the task of fitting in with your needs, which could leave you scratching your head and looking for a solution. This range of custom aluminium lifting gantries could be your solution.
Custom Aluminium Gantry Features
These custom
aluminium lifting gantry systems have the added bonus of being class B compliant to EN795, so they can be used to lift people and/or used as a fall arrest device with the addition of the correct PPE equipment. Depending on the model size, up to 5 people can be supported on fall arrest /retrieval systems though the working load limit will be reduced. For example, if the gantry has an overall working load limit of 5000kg, the maximum lifting capacity for people will be 2000kg. With the correct PPE equipment, the maximum fall force will be 6kN. Some of the longer beam length models may not be suitable for Fall arrest or personal lifting situations so please ask if this is your intention.
