Fixed Hoist
The Fixed Hoist is a stationary wire rope hoist suspended from a fixed structural point such as a ceiling beam, bracket, or dedicated support frame. It provides pure vertical lifting without any traversing motion. Compact, cost-effective, and simple to install, it is the most economical powered hoist solution for dedicated lift points where horizontal movement is not required.
