Verlinde Stagemaker SR electric Hoist

 Stagemaker entertainment hoists have an excellent reputation across the world thanks to their reliability and long life span. Additionally, the Verlinde Stagemaker SR electric hoist can be used in a number of ways and customised, they can be tailored to suit your needs.  

Key Features of the Verlinde Stagemaker SR Electric Hoist  

The Stagemaker SR electric hoist has a range of innovative components to help to ensure optimum safety, smooth running and precise positioning. There are three main areas;  

The load wheel boasts a new, perfect push model and incorporates a 5 pocketed load wheel and 5 intermediate teeth. Chain guiding is much improved with these components and the risk of chain jams is minimised.  

The new chain flux system enables the chain to flow horizontally from the load wheel. This not only helps to reduce chain jamming but also enables the chain to flow fluidly into the chain collector container.  The chain flux component has a drain hole within the housing; this will prevent water build up in the load wheel section.  

The third new component is the limit flux. This is a limiting device which is fitted in the chain flux. Its purpose is to enable you to set hook or hoist positions with very good accuracy which is actually just the size of 1 chain link. Fitting and moving the limit fluxes is simple as they are operated by upper and lower magnetic rings which can be placed anywhere along the chain. 

Other Features of the SR Stagemaker Hoist 

 The Verlinde Stagemaker SR electric hoist has many other features and benefits for use in the entertainment sector. They can be used in an industrial suspension configuration OR it can be used as a climbing hoist, where the hoist is basically inverted and the whole hoist body will raise and lower on the load chain. The switch between the two configurations is a simple process of reversing the chain container and turning the hoist upside down. 

The chain containers are made from high grade fabric and have large chain capacities; they can also be completely removed if needed. 

The hoist motor will keep consistent speeds whether loaded or not. There are buffers made from rubber on the corners of the hoist to give the body extra protection if it comes into contact with other objects. Both the upper and lower hooks are the swivelling type. The SR also boasts a double lifting brake and retractable hand grips. 

Operating sound levels are just 60dB and can be used in extreme temperatures (-20C° to +50 C° / -4 to 122 degrees F). 

The black streamlined, rounded body helps it to blend into its background, this is extremely important for stage productions. The SR Stagemaker meets ecology regulations and is RohS compliant.
