Description
LIFTKET Low-Headroom Hoist – Electric Chain Hoist
The LIFTKET Low-Headroom Hoist is a heavy-duty electric chain hoist solution developed to provide maximum hook height in facilities with an extra-short headroom and very limited building height. With up to 4,000 kg capacity, it enables safe, ergonomic lifting on low-ceiling lines where standard hoists fall short.
Thanks to the extra-short headroom design, the hoist body and trolley are brought as close as possible to the ceiling structure, so the available ceiling height is converted almost entirely into lifting height. The integrated synchronous (Gleichlauf) control ensures balanced, synchronized lifting of the load in twin-chain or multi-point lifting arrangements.
As the Türkiye distributor of the LIFTKET product family, BM Makina integrates this compact low-headroom hoist into turnkey lifting projects together with BKB light crane systems, steel-construction bridge cranes, gantry cranes and VAHLE power transmission solutions. This provides a high-efficiency, long-life crane solution for low-ceiling areas in both new investments and modernization projects.
Key Features
Extra-short construction – maximum hook height
Thanks to a specially designed compact short headroom, the load hook works exceptionally close to the ceiling. This gives more effective lifting height than standard low-headroom hoists.
Heavy-duty capacity up to 4,000 kg
Designed for loads up to 4 tonnes, the structure is equipped with high-strength components for safe lifting of heavy, bulky equipment.
Synchronous operation (Gleichlauf) and advanced control options
The integrated synchronous control ensures synchronized operation of the chain hoists. It can be configured on request with special control panels, a frequency inverter, soft start/stop and precise speed control.
High safety standard
With an electromagnetic brake, overload protection, end-limit switches and optional additional safety sensors, it offers safe operation under heavy-duty conditions. LIFTKET’s quality standard, compliant with international norms, is combined with BM Makina’s field experience.
Flexible project and modernization solutions
It can be used as a “hoist optimized for low ceilings” in new line projects.
Application Areas
The LIFTKET Low-Headroom Hoist, with its extra-short headroom, is ideal especially for applications where building height is limited and maximum hook height is critical.
Low-ceiling factories and workshops
Provides maximum lifting height in older facilities where the existing building height cannot be changed.
On-machine crane applications
A compact solution for mould changing, tool changing and maintenance on press, injection, sheet-metal and bench-top lines.
Assembly and maintenance lines
Lifting/placing heavy components (motor, gearbox, mould, panel, etc.) at assembly stations.
Bridge crane lines with a low rail level
Situations where the under-hook height must be maximized on steel-construction or crane bridges.
Modernization projects
Projects where existing overhead cranes fall short and hook height must be increased without additional construction changes.
Based on the site survey, BM Makina engineers the Low-Headroom Hoist to suit the existing beam, rail and power transmission systems.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Product Description | POWER PACK – an extra-low-profile twin-chain electric hoist system designed for maximum hook height. |
| Top Approach Dimension | Only 180 mm top approach dimension at 4-tonne capacity (minimum distance to the end position). |
| Twin-Chain Lifting | A twin-lift mechanism providing a sway-free true-vertical lift minimizes load twisting and swinging. |
| Compact Design | Its very compact body offers maximum hook height even in tight spaces and low-ceiling facilities. |
| Body and Hook | Durable steel construction and a cast load hook make it suitable for heavy industrial use. |
| Chain Life | A chain-protecting design; single-chain guidance reduces chain wear and maintenance needs. |
| Optional Equipment | Expandable with options such as integrated radio remote control, synchronous control and a geared limit switch. |
