What are specialised lifting aids?
Specialised lifting accessories are devices specifically designed to meet complex and demanding lifting needs. They are used in industries where standard solutions are not sufficient. They allow safe and efficient lifting of objects of different shapes and sizes.
Specialised lifting accessories are designed to take into account the shape, weight and specific requirements of the lifting situation. For example, ring and pendulum grippers and lifting scissors are typical specialised lifting accessories that offer flexibility and safety in lifting situations.
The lifting accessories designed by Hefmec are examples of how specialised solutions can improve production efficiency and safety. Each lifting accessory is designed according to the customer’s needs, ensuring optimal functionality and cost-effectiveness.
The most common challenging lifting situations and their solutions
In industry, we often encounter situations where traditional lifting solutions are not enough. For example, lifting large and heavy objects in confined spaces or handling irregularly shaped objects requires specialised lifting equipment.
One common challenging lifting situation is lifting and turning large barrels or bushes. Pantomime grippers are an excellent solution for this, as they allow the piece to be securely attached and rotated continuously during lifting. This makes the operations smoother and safer.
Another example is lifting round objects, such as large bearings. Lifting shears provide a self-tightening and form-locking grip that allows the piece to be lifted from both inside and outside. This reduces procurement costs and speeds up operations.
