Industry Update’s tips for choosing lifting equipment

Application

To choose the correct equipment for your specific application you need to precisely determine its intended use. Be clear on the following aspects so you can get the right advice on which machine is right for your business:

• Know your load weight, as this will determine the equipment’s safe working load;
• Know the operating distance - where will you be moving product to and from?;
• The duty cycle – how hard will your machine have to work? Will your machine be working 24/7 or just a standard working week? Does it need to lift every hour, or several times per minute?

Your facilities

When determining which type of lifting equipment is appropriate for your operating environment, consider how it will be installed and whether your facility is capable of accommodating it. For example, if you are considering a wall or roof-mounted crane you need to ensure the building’s structure is able to bare the weight of the load.

Similarly, consider the equipment’s installation process, and whether you will need to put operations on hold in order to install the crane, losing you valuable working hours and potentially delaying the timely completion of orders.

Environment

Ensure the lifting equipment your choose is appropriately designed for the physical environment in which it will be used. This is particularly relevant if working outdoors, with corrosive agents, extreme temperatures or sterile environments.

Cost

By opting for a higher-quality product, you are more likely to avoid any long-term costs. Alongside the initial capital outlay for purchasing your new lifting equipment, you will also need to factor in any costs you may incur for maintenance, training and shutting down operations for the machine’s installation. If the increase in productivity – and therefore profits - the equipment provides outweigh costs, you know you’re making a sound investment.
