Demag DR-Pro rope hoists – high performance for tomorrow’s needs
Demag DR-Pro rope hoists meet all the requirements of
state-of-the-art hoist units and give you the certainty of
a secure long-term investment. Besides their particularly
long service life, they also offer comprehensive standard
features at an attractive price.
Higher hoist speed for faster handling
Most Demag DR-Pro rope hoist models have a lifting
speed of at least 6 m/min with 4/1 reeving as standard.
Higher availability for greater efficiency
DR-Pro rope hoists are supplied with an increased FEM
classification. The rope drive mechanism precisely meets
FEM specifications, however, the gearbox service life is
20 percent longer. This means that there is 20 percent
more time until the general overhaul is due when the safe
working period has elapsed. The generous dimensioning
of all components also ensures constant availability.
The modular rope hoist design facilitates simple and rapid
maintenance and repair of individual components, thus
cutting any downtime to a minimum.
In addition to the economic benefits, Demag DR-Pro
rope hoists also provide a high level of safety for the
operator and the load.
Outstanding versatility
Available in four basic designs, the right solution can be
found for virtually any application with Demag DR-Pro
rope hoists:
