TYPES OF CONSTRUCTION MAST HOISTS

Modern professional construction in Ukraine today is hard to imagine without it construction mast lifts. With the help of such equipment, cargo and people are quickly and safely lifted to the required heights.

What are mast lifts?

According to the type of execution, they are divided into:

Single-masted;
Two-masted.

By appointment for:

Cargo;
Cargo and passenger.

By cabin type:

With an open cabin;
With a closed cabin.

By the number of cabins:

One cabin;
Two-cabin.

Also, lifts are divided by load capacity and lifting speed. In Ukraine, the most common construction hoists are from 1,5 to 2 tons, one- and two-mast with an open and closed cabin.

What are mast construction hoists made of?

In general, the machine components consist of the following elements:

From the base (base), which can be mounted on jacks to adjust the mounting level;
Cabins (or cabins) for lifting goods and people;
A mast with toothed rails on which the cabins rise;

The masts are attached to the facade of the building with anchors so that the structure is rigidly fixed. The electrical circuit of the elevators receives power from the network with a voltage of 380V.

The international VIRAMAKS group has a rental fleet of cargo and cargo-passenger lifts with a load capacity of 1,5 and 2 tons. European production (MABER, ENKOMAT).

Also, we offer the market modern solutions - high-speed construction cargo-passenger mechanisms of leading manufacturers in Europe (ALIMAK HEK, STROSS, ELEKTROELSA) and Asia (GJJ, TMM, DAHAN, etc.), which allow lifting goods and people to a height of up to 200 meters.

A feature of such construction equipment is the possibility of programming the movement of the elevator on floors, the speed of lifting people over 30 m/min.

It is interesting that such lifts are equipped with recuperators - devices that convert the energy of the machine's reverse motion when lowering down - into electric current, which is then returned to the power supply network of construction equipment.

In order to increase the service life of the equipment, masts and cabins are covered with a layer of hot zinc, which reliably protects the metal from corrosive wear.

Elevators are only allowed to be operated by employees who have undergone training in the rules of safe machine operation, electrical and safety training. Often, our client - builders do not have such employees, in this case VIRAMAKS itself operates machines at the construction site, providing both mechanisms and lifters "from one hand".

What is the service life of construction equipment?

The average service life of elevators is about 15 years. However, if the metal of your equipment is hot-dip galvanized, the equipment is timely serviced and inspected, the mechanisms will serve for 20 or more years.

At VIRAMAKS, you can rent or purchase both new and used forklifts that have undergone pre-sale training.

The company also provides installation, expansion, maintenance and repair services for such equipment. We have our own technical service, which promptly reacts to any emergency situations. Thus, VIRAMAKS solves the problem of supply, installation, operation and technical maintenance of equipment in a comprehensive manner.
