Fixed Type Electric Chain Hoist

Fixed Electric Chain Hoists are the least risk-bearing hoist models, depending on the durableness of the area at a fixed point. Fixed Electric Chain Hoist, electric fixed wire rope hoist, and tower cranes are mostly used in industrial environments. Periodic maintenance after the installation of Fixed Electric Chain Hoists is a very important issue in terms of safety. You can purchase them from the Dejun with reasonable prices and you can benefit from installation and maintenance services.

What is a Fixed Type Electric Chain Hoist?

A fixed type electric chain hoist is a lifting device mounted in a stationary position, typically bolted to overhead beams, ceilings, or dedicated lifting structures. It uses a motorized system to drive a chain—usually made of high-strength alloy steel—to raise and lower loads. Unlike electric trolley chain hoists that move along rails or tracks, this model stays fixed, making it ideal for tasks where the lifting point does not need to shift. Its design includes a compact housing that encloses the motor, gearbox, and braking system, ensuring durability even in harsh environments.

Advantages of Fixed Type Electric Chain Hoists

  • Space Efficiency: With no need for rails or trolleys, these hoists take up minimal space. This makes them perfect for workshops, garages, or factories with limited overhead room, where every inch of space counts.

  • Cost-Effectiveness: Their simple design—without moving tracks or complex trolley systems—means lower manufacturing costs. This translates to a more affordable price tag compared to mobile or running hoists, making them a budget-friendly option for small to medium-sized businesses.

  • Easy Installation: Mounting a fixed-type hoist is straightforward. Most models come with pre-drilled holes and mounting hardware, allowing for quick setup by a qualified technician. No need for extensive structural modifications, saving time and labor costs.

  • Stability and Safety: Being fixed in place eliminates the risk of swaying or shifting during lifting, which is crucial for precision tasks. They also feature built-in safety mechanisms like overload protection, emergency stop buttons, and thermal overload switches to prevent accidents.

  • Low Maintenance: With fewer moving parts than running hoists, there’s less wear and tear. Regular maintenance typically involves lubricating the chain and checking the motor—simple tasks that keep the hoist running smoothly for years.


Common Uses Across Industries

Fixed type electric chain hoists are versatile tools found in a wide range of settings:

1. Workshops and Repair Shops: Used to lift engines, heavy machinery, or vehicle parts during repairs. Their stability ensures mechanics can position components with accuracy.

2. Warehouses and Storage Facilities: Ideal for loading and unloading goods from shelves or pallet racks where the lifting point is fixed. They handle weights from 0.5 tons to 20 tons, making them suitable for both light and medium-duty tasks.

3. Construction Sites: Mounted on temporary structures to lift materials like steel beams or concrete blocks to specific heights. Their durability withstands dust, debris, and varying weather conditions.

4. Manufacturing Lines: Integrated into production processes to move parts between workstations. For example, in automotive factories, they lift car frames onto assembly lines with consistent precision.

5. Garages and Vehicle Maintenance: Used to hoist cars, trucks, or heavy tools for repairs. Their fixed position ensures safe, stable lifting for mechanics working underneath vehicles.

Fixed Type vs. Running Type Electric Chain Hoists: What Is the Difference?

While both use chain-driven systems, the key distinction lies in mobility:

Mobility: Fixed-type hoists stay in one position, bolted to a beam or ceiling. Running type hoists (also called traveling hoists) move along a track or rail, allowing horizontal movement across a workspace.

Design Complexity: Running hoists require additional components like trolleys, rails, and guidance systems, making them bulkier and more expensive. Fixed hoists have a simpler design, with fewer parts to maintain.

Space Requirements: Running hoists need room for their tracks, which can limit installation in tight spaces. Fixed hoists are compact and work well in areas where horizontal movement isn’t necessary.

Applications: Fixed hoists excel at repetitive tasks in a single location, while running hoists are better for tasks requiring movement, like loading trucks or moving materials across a warehouse floor.

FAQ

Q: What load capacity do I need for my business?

A: Consider your heaviest typical load and add a 20% buffer to ensure safety. For example, if you regularly lift 5-ton loads, a 6-ton hoist is a smart choice

Q: Can a fixed type hoist be installed outdoors?

A: Yes, but opt for a weatherproof model with IP65-rated components to resist rain, dust, and corrosion. We offer outdoor-specific versions for construction or agricultural use.

Q: How often should I maintain my hoist?

A: For light use (a few times weekly), inspect monthly and lubricate chains quarterly. For heavy daily use, inspect weekly and lubricate monthly. Always follow the maintenance guide included with your hoist.

Q: Can I control the hoist remotely?

A: Yes, we offer remote control options with a range of up to 50 meters, allowing operators to control lifting from a safe distance.

Q: What is the lifespan of a fixed type electric chain hoist?

A: With proper maintenance, our hoists last 10–15 years. Regular chain replacement and motor checks extend their lifespan significantly.
