Load Lifting Apparatus
Lifting heavy or large loads is a job that requires attention and professionalism. In large-scale works, it is possible to lift products and loads that are difficult to lift with human power with various equipment. Smaller load lifting apparatuses are used next to large equipment and vehicles that do load lifting works. These apparatuses are highly effective on the maximum efficiency of the equipment and the work efficiency.
In order to lift heavy loads, it is important to grasp the load correctly and in a balanced way as well as the force to lift that load. The load lifting apparatus undertakes the task of grasping, holding and fixing the loads. Load lifting apparatuses are especially designed as products that make it possible to carry the load safely.
Load Lifting Apparatus Design and Production
It is very important to safely lift and transport products and goods with high weight or large dimensions. For this reason, the design of load-lifting apparatus is made in a way that provides security measures. Factors affecting the design process can be listed as follows;
- The area where the apparatus will be used,
- Technical, mechanical and structural characteristics of the load to be held and lifted,
- It provides the expected performance and service life from the apparatus.
When all these factors are determined, the apparatus suitable for the intended use and area of use can be designed and developed. Apparatuses with the features that will enable the load to be lifted in the most correct way affect the work quality and work efficiency seriously.
The production of load lifting apparatus, which offers professional working opportunities, is carried out in accordance with the design. In the manufacturing process, robust and durable apparatuses are produced. Apparatus types are created that will grasp the weights to be carried in the best way and have the capacity to lift this load. Thus, the device types with the planned level of quality are offered to the user in a way that will work with maximum efficiency.
Types of Load Lifting Apparatus
Load lifting apparatus design is made according to the usage area and purpose of use. Lifting heavy loads is a field of business that is carried out in almost every sector. Although the weights are very similar, the physical properties of the lifted loads are very different. For this reason, different sizes of load lifting apparatuses with different technical equipment are developed according to the characteristics of the products to be transported. Each apparatus is named according to the feature it has.
The main types of load lifting apparatus are as follows;
- Coil and bobbin lift C hooks
- Train wheel and train tracks lifting equipment
- Pipe lifters
- Sheet metal grabbers
- Sandwich panel carrying apparatus
- Round material and pipe lifting equipment
- Wire coil lifting equipment
- Container lifting and handling equipment
- Barrel lifting and handling equipment
- Reinforced concrete product handling equipment
- Pallet lift forks
- Mechanical forklift handling and lifting attachments
- Cargo and personnel carrier baskets
- Profile and sheet lifting equipment
Load Lifting Apparatus Usage Area and Advantages
Heavy materials with different properties are used in various sectors and working areas. Load lifting apparatuses are actively used in all work areas where large and heavy materials are produced, transported and used. The advantages of load lifting apparatus, which have a very wide usage area, can be listed as follows;
- They are effective in safely holding the material to be lifted and lifting and transporting it without being damaged,
- A variety of apparatus that will work with the highest efficiency in different areas of use is offered,
- It ensures the implementation of occupational health and safety conditions and the life safety of employees,
- They enable the heaviest work to be done faster, more effectively and at less cost,
They are highly effective on increasing work efficiency and quality by providing professional working opportunities.
