Chain Hoist ATHLO chain – Plastic Processing – 1x1t

In plastics processing, the safe and controlled lifting of sensitive components is of central importance, especially during the assembly, maintenance, or testing of high-quality plastic systems. A chain hoist ATHLO chain with a load capacity of 1,000 kg, mounted on the trolley of a larger crane system, reliably and precisely handles these tasks.

Thanks to its sensitive control, the chain hoist is ideal for applications where maximum control is required – such as hoisting special components, test bodies, or tools that must not be damaged during production. Integration into existing lifting systems ensures flexibility and safety in the production environment.

The solution supports smooth maintenance and manufacturing processes in an industry that relies on consistent quality, repeatability, and careful handling.

ELECTRIC CHAIN HOIST
ATHLO chain

The ATHLO chain series, our latest generation of chain hoists, is designed for loads up to 5 t. At the launch of the new series, we are offering this model for loads up to 2.500 kg with further options to follow in the coming months.

ATHLO chain combines high security, performance and usability with easy maintenance and a long service life. The modern design features a newly constructed interior and all-new mechanical components. ATHLO chain is easy to use and delivers top performance in different conditions.

Higher durability

The hoist motor with its new 4:1 ratio and redesigned cooling fins provides a better cooling in order to extend the service life of the hoist. ATHLO chain offers a new design for activating the limit switch which works flawlessly both in everyday usage and different conditions.

Easiest maintenance

ATHLO chain is low maintenance because both the hoist gear and bearings are designed to last a lifetime. All components are easily accessible, and no special tools are necessary to exchange components and install spare parts.

Higher performance, better handling

The new chain bag helps the chain run quietly and smoothly thus preventing an accumulation of the chain. To ensure top quality, we build the gears with an extended speed range ourselves in house. The compact design and new upper-eye suspension produce an increased lifting height at the same suspension height.

Improved safety

The new break is designed to handle 1 million cycles or up to a lifetime with the proper handling. It responds instantly when the power is turned off. The slipping clutch has a larger diameter and additional grooves to improve the cooling effect of the gear oil and increase its overall service life. Thanks to the new suspension bracket, a push or motor trolley can be installed using a special safety pin – with no further tools required.
