Nucleon Crane Group, a Chinese crane manufacturer, has introduced the NR electric hoist, developed in line with European FEM and DIN standards, as well as China’s GB standard.
The new offering is part of Nucleon’s European crane series, designed to cater to various material handling requirements through diverse configurations and designs.
The NR hoist is engineered to meet the demands for low headroom and high lifting heights, offering features such as strong rigidity, reduced dead weight, and an efficient structural design. These attributes aim to optimise factory space and reduce investment costs, aligning with international standards like Germany’s DIN.
The NR hoist boasts a lifting capacity ranging from 1 to 20 tons, with lifting heights between 3m and 18m. It employs frequency inverter control for speed regulation and uses geared motors from either China or Germany.
Key electrical components are sourced from Schneider, and the system adheres to standards such as FEM, DIN, and GB, with a working duty classification of M5 according to ISO.
Certifications include CE, ISO, and CU-TR, and the hoist incorporates Siemens PLC and pendant controls from GG/Schneider. Constructed with materials Q235 and Q345, the hoist is integrated into a single-girder overhead crane.
Safety features are comprehensive, covering lifting, trolley, and crane travelling, along with anti-collision, weight overload, and current overload protections.
Geared motors, available from German or Chinese manufacturers, offer low noise, smooth operation, and corrosion resistance, with maintenance-free attributes.
The electrical box and motor, provided by GG/Schneider, offer IP65 protection for extended service life.
Last month, Nucleon delivered two 10-ton overhead cranes to a factory in Kazakhstan. These cranes, tailored to the client’s specifications, feature a 19m span, a 9m lifting height, and a 45m travelling length.
The production process was completed in 30 days, after which the cranes were shipped from Nucleon’s facility to Almaty, Kazakhstan.
