FAQ Section
At Admalite, we understand the importance of providing clear and comprehensive information to our customers. Our FAQ section is designed to address common questions and provide detailed answers about our products and their functionalities. Whether you’re curious about how a hoist controller works or the differences between a hoist and a crane, we’ve got you covered.
A hoist operates by converting electrical energy into mechanical energy, using a motor to turn a drum or lift-wheel. This action winds or unwinds a rope or chain, lifting or lowering the load.
The main purpose of a hoist is to lift and lower heavy loads safely and efficiently, making it an essential component in many industrial applications.
A hoist is a device used to lift and lower loads, typically within a confined area. A crane, on the other hand, is a larger system that moves loads horizontally and vertically over a wider area.
A crane controller manages the operation of the crane, ensuring precise control over lifting, moving, and placing loads. It integrates safety features to prevent accidents and enhance efficiency.
Basic crane controls include:
- Lift and Lower: Controls the up and down movement.
- Trolley Traverse: Moves the trolley along the crane’s beam.
- Bridge Travel: Moves the entire crane along the runway.
- Manual Control Panels: Operated by human input.
- Automatic Control Panels: Programmed for specific tasks.
- Remote Control Panels: Operated from a distance using wireless technology.
A hoist system works by using a motor to lift and lower loads via a drum or lift-wheel. The system includes various safety and control features to manage the lifting process effectively.
A hoist control system includes all the components and controls necessary to operate a hoist safely and efficiently. This system ensures smooth and precise movement of loads.
A crane control panel is the central system that controls all the crane’s functions, including lifting, lowering, and moving loads. It houses the controls, indicators, and safety devices necessary for efficient crane operation.
A hoist controller manages the movement of the hoist by controlling the motor and other components. It ensures precise lifting, lowering, and positioning of loads. At Admalite, our hoist controllers are designed for optimal performance and safety.
