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.
Morrow Equipment, a leading tower-crane rental company, recently ordered 20 new Alimak construction hoists. Read the original report.
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.
