Konecranes hoists and cranes

The CXT wire rope hoist is the lifting unit of the CXT crane family. Beside it the manufacturer shows the CXT NEO crane package, X-series and S-series rope hoist cranes, C-series and D-series electric chain hoists, and EXCXT hoist cranes for hazardous environments. Choosing among them depends on load, lifting height, duty class and where the crane operates.

Ordering Konecranes equipment: what we need

Send the hoist type and serial number from the data plate, the rated load, lifting height, hoisting and travel speeds, duty class, and the supply and control voltages. For parts, name the component, such as rope, rope guide, brake, contactor or pendant, and attach photos. For a new hoist on an existing crane in the GCC, add the girder type and trolley gauge.
