Columbus McKinnon manufactures and markets a wide range of hoists for use in diverse applications around the world.
Whether chain or wire rope, electric or pneumatic; our line of powered hoists are ideal in manufacturing, power generation, and industrial facilities where heavy items are lifted and positioned as part of production or warehousing. Our new Global Max high-capacity wire rope hoist complements our line with capacities up to 50 Tons. We offer a full line of manual hoists, both hand chain and lever tools, which are used primarily for maintenance and construction activities.
Although many hoists are standard "off the shelf" items, we can modified most to meet exact requirements. Extra long lifts, variable frequency drives for precise positioning, and special hook/trolley configurations are just a few modifications that can be made. Hoists can be integral part of overhead lifting systems that combine a crane or jib as an attachment point, and below-the-hook lifting devices for securely attaching a load.
