Chain hoist with KDC low-headroom travelling hoist

Maximum lifting height

Demag KDC low-headroom travelling hoist: Optimum utilization of space with particularly large C dimension

The particularly compact KDC monorail travelling hoist offers extremely low headroom for optimum utilisation of the hook path. KDC hoists can be used with all trolley variants, for example in combination with KBK suspension cranes or KBK monorails. Therefore, you can easily move loads weighing up to 2,000 kg over any area or from point to point. You have the choice between 2-stage or variable lifting and cross-travel speeds.

KDC 42318

KDC monorail travelling hoists offer the same benefits as our entire range of DC chain hoists.

Safe. By Demag.

All KDC units are equipped with operating limit switches for the highest and lowest hook position as standard, ensuring convenient lifting and lowering with the chain hoist at all times. Smooth cross-travel starting and braking motions of the trolley provide for low-sway load handling. The safety-related functions satisfy Performance Level c and Category 2 to EN ISO 13849-1 as a minimum requirement.

Durable components for uncompromising cost-efficiency

The components installed in the DC chain hoist range are selected for their longevity. The generously specified gearbox allows for FEM classification up to 4m and, therefore, 6,300 hours of operation for demanding applications.
