Low-headroom electric hoists are electric lifting equipment specially designed for space-limited environments. Their main feature is achieving a lower lifting height through better design. This allows lifting tasks to be done in places with low ceilings. This equipment is commonly used in industries that need strict vertical space. Examples include factory renovations, underground projects, shipbuilding, and low-rise warehouses. Recently, a Serbian spare parts factory contacted us and needs electric hoists for their production lines. To meet the order needs, they decided to expand their spare parts production lines. Thus, they have to order several electric hoists to lift products during manufacturing. Through knowing

By optimizing the mechanical structure, the occupied clear height is significantly reduced. For example, in a factory with a 5-meter clear height, the actual lifting height is usually only 2.5-3 meters; while low clear height hoists can reduce the occupied clear height by 30%-50%, and the actual lifting height can reach 3.5-4 meters, which is equivalent to releasing an additional 1-meter vertical lifting space.
For space-constrained scenarios, low-clear-height electric hoists can be directly adapted to the existing building structure, avoiding additional factory renovation costs due to the installation of lifting equipment. Our Saudi customer has a hardware processing factory with a 4.2-meter clear height and plans to add 2-ton lifting equipment. If a regular hoist is chosen, the roof needs to be raised to 5.5 meters. However, by choosing a low-clear-height hoist for direct installation, only the equipment purchase cost is needed, and the equipment can be debugged and put into production within 3 days.
Under the condition of a fixed factory clear height, low clear height hoists can maximize the utilization of vertical space, allowing lifting operations to cover a wider height range and reducing the need for secondary handling due to insufficient lifting height. Our low-clear-height hoists are particularly suitable for scenarios in equipment production lines where parts need to be lifted to 3-4 meters high assembly platforms, directly connecting the operation process and reducing intermediate links.
Low-clear-height electric hoists support various installation forms such as single-beam tracks, suspended tracks, and double-beam cranes. They are small in size and light in weight, making them easy to lay out in complex spaces. Our automotive parts factory customer set up 3 low-clear-height hoist tracks beside the production line, serving 3 assembly stations. The hoists can move along the tracks and directly lift 200-500kg parts to the stations, replacing the original forklifts and manual handling, saving labor costs and factory space.
When choosing a low-headroom electric hoist that suits your needs, it is necessary to comprehensively consider multiple dimensions such as space compatibility, performance parameters, usage environment, safety certification, brand service, etc.
First of all, clear performance parameters can enable suppliers to quickly quote prices for you. When purchasing a hoist, the technical parameters you need to provide include the maximum lifting weight, lifting height, and factory ceiling height, speed control requirements, usage environment, etc. Speed includes single speed, double speed, and frequency conversion control. The usage environment includes ordinary environments, specific environments, explosion-prevention environments, high-temperature environments, etc. Different usage environments correspond to different protection levels, and we can customize this according to your needs. In addition, brand and after-sales service are also very important. In terms of cost performance, Dejun is highly recommended. Dejun's hoists are stable in performance and moderately priced. Moreover, Dejun offers a 1-2 year warranty period. The hoist equipment all have international certifications such as CE and ISO 9001, meeting international safety standards.
