original report.

August 4, 2005 — Alimak Hek, Bridgeport, Conn., recently unveiled its Scando 650 hoist, offering a large number of possible configurations with different doors and gates, drive units (a two-motor DOL and two- or three-motor FC), speeds (up to 65 m/min), and payload capacities for both construction and permanent access. This flexibility ensures that the fully modular vertical transport solution can be configured to fit customer applications.

 

The three available motors, which drive the system through a high-efficiency gearbox, provide more hoist power while using as much as 40% less power than previous Scando models. Available in single- or twin-car configurations, the Scando 650 offers payloads of 1500 to 3200 kg/car and has a standard maximum lifting height of 400 meters, which can be increased upon request.
