LOADMATE® ELECTRIC CHAIN HOISTS

LoadMate® hoists are designed to maximize productivity with fast installation, easy operation and built-in durability. The compact design provides low headroom and allows close trolley approaches. R&M’s advanced design and manufacturing techniques ensure safe operation, consistent quality and longer component life. It adds up to exceptional value - hoist equipment that saves on maintenance, repair and downtime costs over its lifetime.

Flexibility to Meet Your Exact Requirements

R&M LoadMate® electric chain hoists offer a range of choices for a wide variety of applications.

  • 1/2 ton to 5 ton capacities with ASME duty ratings [500 kg - 5,000 kg] with FEM duty ratings
  • 10, 15 and 20 ft. [3,4,5,6m] lifts standard; additional lifting heights available up to 150 ft [46 m] single-fall, 75 ft. [23 m] two-fall.
  • Two speed, three phase hoist motors and controls.
  • Lift speeds from 12/3 fpm [3.6/0.9 m/min] to 32/8 fpm (speeds reached with 60Hz power supply).
  • Hoist motors are class F insulated, 50% effective duty rated.
  • TMU trolley drive unit with inverter controls.
  • Standard trolley inverter offers two-speed or 2-step infinitely variable speed control.
  • Trolley control panel integrally mounted to the motor.
  • Trolley brake, bumpers and drop lugs are standard.

REDUCED MAINTENANCE

Quality keeps your hoist on the job long past the pay-off point

LoadMate® hoists are designed to run cool and maximize the life of gears, brakes and motors. Longer component life means less maintenance, less downtime and lower repair costs.
  • Sealed brake keeps out lubricants.
  • The hoist brake and load limiter are both adjustable and adjust independently of each other.

EASE OF OPERATION

Innovative design enhances versatility and ease of use

  • Premium-grade, AGMA rated * precision gearing contributes to the hoist’s compact, low-headroom design, low noise level and smooth operation.
  • Integral hoist control panel encloses all electrical components (hoist contactors, transformer, terminal strips, etc.) and is easily accessed for maintenance.
  • Easy trolley mounting attachment meets various application requirements. Slot in top of hoist body allows easy changeover of top hook, push trolley or motorized trolley mountings.
  • Crown tread wheels standard on trolleys, for use on standard I-beams and wide flange beams.

* Hoist gearboxes: LM1: AGMA 10, LM05 & LM10: AGMA11 and LM16/25: AGMA 12. Traveling gearboxes: AGMA 10.
