Performance features

Double-rail trolley with twin hoist (Z):

─     The wire rope hoist has two drives for the trolley, giving it two driven wheels and two non-driven wheels.

─     The trolley frame is placed onto the end carriages from above. One end carriage is permanently fixed to the trolley frame by two bolts and the other end carriage is articulated with one bolt in the trolley frame. This ensures that all four wheels always rest on the trolley track.

─     Optionally, a walkway can be attached around the wire rope hoist so service and maintenance work can be performed easily and safely. (Double-rail trolley with twin hoist ZB).

─     The wire rope hoist covers a load capacity range of 8 t to 120 t.

 

 

Double-rail trolley with twin hoist, lowered (ZA):

─     Unlike the double-rail trolley with twin hoist (Z), the trolley frame for this version is placed between the end carriages, allowing an overall minimum height to be reached.

─     One of the two end carriages is permanently fixed to the trolley frame with high-tensile bolts and the other end carriage is articulated with one bolt in the trolley frame. This ensures that all four wheels always rest on the trolley track.

─     The wire rope hoist covers a load capacity range of 8 t to 120 t.

 

 

AZP trolley drive (variant):

─     The drives are designed as pole-variable rotary current motors with electromagnetic disc brakes and gear units.

─     The drives have a low and a high speed. The ratio of the two speeds is 1:4.

─     The drive’s gear unit is a maintenance-free, two-stage or three-stage planetary gear.

 

 

AZF trolley drive (variant):

─     The drives are designed as pole-variable rotary current motors with electromagnetic disc brakes and gear units.

─     The drives have a low and a high speed. The ratio of the two speeds is 1:4.

─     The drive's gear unit is a maintenance-free, flat gear unit with friction clutch.

─     The drives of the size V420 and V500 have a visible output shaft.

─     The drives are equipped with a fan blade on the motor shaft for ventilation. For very slow travel speeds, the drives can also be equipped with auxiliary fans.

 

 

Hoist drive with pole-variable hoist motor:

─     The hoist drive is powered by a pole-variable 2/12-pole hoist motor with gear unit.

─     The hoist motor features an electro-magnetically actuated spring-loaded brake.

─     The hoist drive has a slow lifting speed and a fast lifting speed. The ratio of the two lifting speeds is 1:6.

─     Using plug-in connections in the connector housing directly on the hoist drive, the hoist drive can be quickly separated from the rest of the crane’s electrics.

─     The hoisting gear features a multi-stage, helical spur gear in an alloy housing. The gear wheels run in a sealed oil bath, which ensures they remain lubricated over their full service life.

─     For further details on the pole-variable hoist drive, see “Pole-variable, modular ABUS hoist drive for wire rope hoists” in the product manual.

 

 

Four-pole hoist drive GM 7000 with frequency converter controlled hoist motor:

─     The hoist drive is powered by a four-pole hoist motor.

─     The hoist motor features an electro-magnetically actuated spring-loaded brake.

─     The hoist motor is powered by a frequency converter as series standard. It enables continuous control of the wire rope hoist lifting speed and (with ABUControl) a two-stage movement profile.

Continuous control of the lifting speed:
With a two-stage button or joystick, the drive can be accelerated in the second level up to a maximum value as long as the button is held down. If the button or joystick switches back into the first level, the drive maintains the current speed. If the button or joystick is released, the speed is reduced.

Two-stage movement profile:
With a two-stage button or joystick, the drive can be accelerated to a fixed slow travel speed in the first level and to a fixed fast travel speed in the second level, as is usual for hoist drives without frequency converters (pole-changeable).

─     The hoisting gear features a multi-stage, helical spur gear in an alloy housing. The gear wheels run in a sealed oil bath, which ensures they remain lubricated over their full service life.

─     The hoist drive is cooled by an auxiliary fan as series-standard.

─     For further details on the frequency converter controlled hoist drive, see the product manual "ABUS hoist drive for wire rope hoists with frequency converters”.

 

 

Hoist:

─     The wire rope of the hoist is a special wire rope with a very high breaking strength. This gives it a considerably longer service life than a normal steel rope.

─     The cable guide guarantees flawless winding and unwinding of the wire rope on the cable drum. It is made of wearproof, low-friction plastic.

─     The “true vertical lift” prevents hook rotation by winding the wire rope around two cable drums simultaneously.
