Description
STAR LIFTKET Foodline
Hygiene and Safety in Food-Industry Hoist Systems
Lifting systems used in food production facilities, the pharmaceutical industry and hygiene-sensitive production environments are judged not only by load capacity but also by hygiene, safety and durability criteria. While a standard hoist corrodes quickly in humid, frequently washed environments, food-safety standards require every component to be hygienic and inspectable.
STAR LIFTKET Foodline is an electric chain hoist solution designed for these special industrial needs. The food-industry version of the LIFTKET STAR series manufactured in Wurzen, Germany, the Foodline ensures safe use in demanding, hygiene-critical production environments with its AISI 316 stainless-steel load chain, NSF-H1 food-grade oil supplied as standard in the gearbox, IP55 protection class and 24 V AC low-voltage control system.
Thanks to its corrosion-resistant structure, it delivers long-life performance in humid, washdown and intensive working environments. With a load chain having a minimum 6:1 safety factor and a thermally protected motor, its structure optimized for food-industry hoist systems and pharmaceutical production lines provides a controlled, safe and efficient lifting operation.
It can be configured specifically for your project with lifting capacities from 125 kg to 2,000 kg and lifting heights up to 10 metres. As LIFTKET’s Türkiye distributor, BM Makina fully provides the sale, technical consultancy, installation, spare-parts supply and after-sales service of the STAR LIFTKET Foodline.
