Chain hoists for lifting and suspending trussing, lighting rigs, speaker arrays and scenic elements above stage, studio and event spaces. The range spans manual chain hoists through to D8 and D8+ electric chain motors from Chainmaster and Moveket, with capacities from 250kg to 1000kg and chain lengths between 10 and 24 metres, some fitted with double brake systems for additional control. Flightcases are available for transport and storage of individual and paired units.
These motors are selected according to load, lifting height and the safety requirements of a given rig, and are typically paired with dedicated controllers and cabling found in the related subcategories. Applications include touring production, television and film studio grids, corporate events and permanent installation work where motorised or manual point hoisting is required.
