Revolutionary modular rope hoist

4th Quarter 2018 Other technologies

For the first time, a rope hoist can be built either in a C-design or co-axial design utilising one basic technology. The extraordinary wide range of possible DMR applications can be extended thanks to smart interfaces and corresponding fittings and accessories.

Demag’s modular rope hoist offers many options, such as five different sizes with load capacities of up to 50 tons, a choice of motors, a foot-mounted hoist, low headroom travelling hoist, double-rail crab, a standard headroom travelling hoist, as well as a smart SafeControl system.

“Flexibility and productivity, as well as long service life and cost-effective operation are key characteristics of our DMR,” says Richard Roughly, senior sales and marketing manager of Demag Cranes. “Consequently, the impressive modular rope hoist concept also offers sophisticated technical details.”

The coupling between the motor and the gearbox absorbs sudden motor forces for a longer rope hoist service life. The motor weighs much less than previous models. The DMR gearbox, which requires 30% less oil, provides for long maintenance intervals thanks to its efficient oil lubrication. Its enclosed design offers protection against external factors.
