Kito said the HK wire rope hoist series features dual speed control, an electronic control to prolong brake life, a built-in encoder to set upper and lower position limits and a history maintenance function to allow maintenance against the frequency of use. Kito said these features are all designed to improve safety, be it by making lifting operations more controlled, prolonging brake life or ensuring maintenance is carried out when required.
HK hoists are available as normal models with 1.6t, 3.2t, 5t and 10t capacities. Low headroom models are also available, in 3.2t and 6.3t models.
The HK hoist series will be manufactured by Jiangyin Kito Crane Co. Ltd, and sold through Jiangyin Kito Crane and Shanghai Kito Trading Co Ltd.
