A crane is a structure that spends its life waiting for a hoist to fail. When it does, the whole bay stops — so the parts business matters as much as the crane business. We supply complete electric hoists, hoist conversions, and the spare parts that actually wear out: wheels, brakes, reducers, motors, panels, cables and control gear. Give us the nameplate details, or a photo of the plate, and we will identify what you have.
CD1 / MD1 wire rope hoists are the workhorses of the industry: robust, inexpensive, and available everywhere, which means parts are easy to find. CD1 is single speed (usually 8 m/min) and MD1 is two speed (8 / 0.8 m/min) for precise positioning. For general workshop duty both are good value. Their limitation is headroom — the hook still needs space under the girder.
Low-headroom hoists cost more and are worth it in three situations: low buildings where 300–600 mm of extra hook height lets you lift over machinery; duty cycles that run all shift, where the better duty rating and built-in VFD control reduce wear; and sites where smooth, stepless movement reduces load swing and product damage. If your building is the constraint, this is often cheaper than raising the roof.
Chain hoists suit light loads, short lifts, and where a compact body matters more than lifting height. They are common on jib cranes, monorails and small workshop bays.
All three come in fixed, monorail (with electric travel) and double-rail trolley versions. Tell us how the hoist will be mounted — under a single girder, on top of a double girder, on a monorail beam, or on a jib — because a fixed hoist cannot simply be converted later without changing the trolley.
We supply the wear items and the failure items, for our own cranes and for cranes bought elsewhere. Tell us the crane brand, capacity and the model code on the nameplate — or send a photo of the plate and a photo of the part — and we will identify it and quote.
For small orders — a brake shoe, a limit switch, a pendant station — we ship by courier against photos and a model number, usually within a week. For heavier items we consolidate into a crate and ship with your next container to keep freight sensible.
Replacing a crane is expensive. Rebuilding its controls is not, and it is often the cheapest reliability upgrade available to an existing plant:
For retrofits send photos of the existing panel, the hoist nameplate and the control voltage; the wiring diagram helps. Tell us the rated capacity and span so the replacement components are rated correctly — a panel sized for a 5 t crane must not go onto a 10 t crane.
| Wire rope hoist capacity | 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 16, 20 t |
|---|---|
| Lifting height | 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 30 m — rope length to your requirement |
| Hoisting speed | 8 m·min⁻¹ single speed (CD1) · 8/0.8 m·min⁻¹ two speed (MD1) · 0.5–8 m·min⁻¹ stepless with VFD |
| Travel speed | 20 m·min⁻¹ standard; VFD or two-speed options |
| Duty classification | M3–M5 for CD1/MD1; M5–M6 for low-headroom models |
| Voltage / frequency | 220 / 380 / 415 / 440 V, 50 or 60 Hz |
| Protection | IP44–IP55, class F insulation standard |
| Mounting | Fixed, monorail with electric travel, double-rail trolley |
| Control | Pendant standard; radio remote and dual control optional |
| Spare parts | Wheels, brakes, reducers, motors, panels, VFDs, festoon and busbar systems, hooks, ropes, remotes, limiters |
The table shows the range we normally supply. Your offer states the exact capacity, span, lifting height, duty class and voltage for your site — and where a figure in this table differs from the offer, the offer prevails. Send us your requirement and we will confirm each line in writing before you order.
Photograph the nameplate on the hoist body and the panel door, and send us the crane's rated capacity and span plus the lifting height. The plate normally gives model, capacity, lifting height, voltage and sometimes the duty class — enough to identify the part with confidence. If there is no plate, send three photos: hoist body from the side, trolley on the beam, and the inside of the control panel. We identify cranes from photos almost every week.
Usually yes, if the crane's rails and end carriages match the new hoist's wheelbase and wheel load. The checks that matter are the trolley wheel base, the load on the girder, and the clearance to the runway. Send the girder drawing or the wheelbase measurement and the girder section, and we will confirm whether the swap is a straight replacement or whether the trolley needs modification.
Twelve months from arrival for complete hoists, against manufacturing defects, with the faulty part replaced or repaired. Wear parts such as brake linings, ropes and contacts are excluded, as are failures caused by overload, wrong voltage or missing maintenance. On spare parts we replace a wrongly supplied part at our cost — but please give us the model code in writing so we both know what is being ordered; that is the honest way to avoid an argument afterwards.
Yes. Parts up to about 30 kg normally go by express courier door to door, arriving in under two weeks to Vietnam and most of Southeast Asia. Above that, air or sea freight becomes cheaper and we consolidate into a crate. If you have a container coming anyway, adding spare parts to it costs almost nothing in freight — the cheapest way to build a spare parts kit, and we recommend it on every crane order.
Workshops, warehouses, assembly and maintenance bays. Light structure, low wheel load, quick to install.
1–20 t · span to 30 mHeavy duty and long spans: steel fabrication, precast yards, smelters, heavy machining shops.
5–100 t · custom spanOutdoor stockyards, precast beds, container and aggregate handling. Hook, grab or C-hook.
3–100 t · rail or tyreSend capacity, span and lifting height and we will reply with a specification and a price within 24 hours.
We quote from 4–5 long-term partner factories in Changyuan, Henan. You will know which one is building your crane, our inspectors test it before shipment, and the drawings, test report and manuals travel with the machine. More about how we work →
Crane type, capacity (t), span (m) and lifting height (m) is usually enough for us to quote. Send a photo of your workshop if you are not sure.
