The precast concrete and prestressed concrete industries require reliable, robust equipment. Demag overhead cranes and hoists have been the market standard with proven designs to meet demanding needs. The same, familiar Demag product is still available today to meet your demanding requirements.
Components Designed to Your Requirements
Demag crane components are a mainstay in precast and prestressed concrete facilities. Doing the heavy lifting, these overhead cranes need to be built to meet the demands of an environment with high dust, high number of lifts per hour, and precise positioning. Tailored to the requirements of each facility, Demag crane components like end trucks, travel motors, and wheel blocks will keep you moving.
End trucks are what allow the crane to move down the runway and allow for precise positioning. Driven by the familiar blue motors Demag is known for with DRS wheel blocks, the DFW II end truck helps you maximize operating safety and reliability. The trusted blue Demag geared motors can achieve travel speeds up to 48 m/ min and as low as 2 m/min with these 2-stage, pole-changing motors. The ideal solution for high ambient temperatures or hazardous environments, the DFW II end truck can meet your demanding requirements.
Motors Designed for Demanding Environments
Demag is famous for its blue motors found on hoists, cranes, and designed into other material handling solutions. You know precast and prestressed concrete production requires rigorous equipment. Conical rotor brake motors eliminate the needs for electronic braking. The conical design integrates the brake directly into the motor for mechanical braking. Since electronics may not be as reliable in an extreme environment, these motors can bring the reliability you need.
Positioning needs to be precise, especially when removing molds from your concrete products during the production process. The Demag FG Microspeed motor combination has long been a trusted partner in precise positioning in material handling projects no matter if it’s on an overhead crane or another material handling device. Adding this motor combination to your hoist as a co-axial F10 motor option will give your lifting the precision needed for nearly any lifting process.
Hoists You’ve Trusted for Decades
Known for reliable product in nearly any environment, you are probably using a Demag DH wire rope hoist in your precast or prestressed concrete yard. Still available for sale today, the DH hoist is designed for the rigors of harsh environments. Lifting up to 100 Tons, the DH is powered with the trusted Demag conical rotor brake motor. It is available in configurations to meet your requirements including standard headroom, low headroom, foot mounted, double rail trolley units in single speed, 2-speed, and variable frequency control (VFC).
The DH wire rope hoist is the ideal solution for production style hoists because it allows for a high number of starts and stops per hour with a high duty factor and can achieve lifting speeds up to 150 fpm. The contactor-controlled hoist uses a conical rotor lifting motor with a microspeed unit for very precise lifting. Add additional features to meet your process needs. The load halt brake will reliably hold a heavy load while molds are removed and can function as an additional emergency brake. In addition, the DH hoist is compatible with many hook attachments or below the hook attachments to meet your lifting requirements.
Tandem Lifting with the DH Wire Rope Hoist
Whether in your production process or concrete storage yard, lift walls, slabs, and long pipe with tandem wire rope hoists. Tandem lifting can be achieved with 2 hoists on one girder or 2 hoists on separate crane girders. No matter what your requirements entail, lifting long products with two DH wire rope hoists allows for precise, reliable lifting.
You need reliable, robust equipment in the precast concrete and prestressed concrete industry. Demag has been the mark of the industry standard and continues to be today. The same trusted Demag products you use in your facility today are available to replace equipment reaching the end of its useful life. Whether you need components for a crane, DH wire rope hoist, or the familiar blue Demag conical rotor motor to meet your requirements, Demag is here to provide the reliable, trusted, quality lifting equipment to meet your requirements.
