Erikkila, a Finnish company specialising in light crane and lifting systems, has announced the deployment of its Hoist Tracks, an overhead monorail solution designed to facilitate the movement of loads between fixed workstations and to optimise floor space in production settings.
The recent installation was carried out by Fyns Kran Udstyr, Erikkila’s Danish partner.
According to the company, the Erikkila Hoist Tracks offer multiple mounting options and can be adapted to various production layouts.
This flexibility is intended to improve the efficiency and ergonomics of routine material handling tasks in manufacturing and assembly environments.
The overhead track systems accommodate loads of up to 2,000kg and can be mounted on ceilings or installed on freestanding supports.
Configurations can include curves, switches, and turntables to meet specific production requirements.
Erikkila was founded in 1912 and has more than 50 years of experience in lifting solutions. The company manufactures products such as light cranes, jib cranes, and movable workstation cranes.
Now part of Columbus McKinnon, Erikkila serves clients across a variety of industries and is supported by a global network of partners.
Fyns Kran Udstyr, which completed the recent installation, provides lifting equipment and services to the industrial as well as marine and offshore sectors.
The company reports a workforce of over 100 employees focusing on the delivery of handling equipment, steel wire ropes, pulleys, and related products. Erikkila’s hoist track offering is targeted at industrial users seeking efficient and space-efficient solutions for intra-facility load movement.
