Flexible Trolley Hoist
The Flexible Trolley Hoist is engineered to travel along curved, branched, or flexible monorail track systems — enabling three-dimensional material movement that fixed overhead cranes cannot achieve. Specially designed swivel trolley wheels and articulated joints allow smooth navigation through bends, switches, and inclined sections, making it ideal for assembly lines with complex material routing requirements.

Technical Advantages
- Curved Track Navigation — Swivel trolley wheel assembly smoothly navigates bends, curves, and track switches across the entire plant routing
- Plant-Wide Coverage — Single hoist unit serves the complete production route, eliminating the need for multiple fixed hoists at each station
- Lateral Force Absorption — Articulated wheel joints absorb cornering forces during curved travel, protecting both track and wheel life significantly
- Conveyor Compatible — Designed for integration with powered and free conveyor systems for fully automated production flow lines
- Motorised & Manual Variants — Available in both motorised and manual push-travel configurations to match speed requirements and budget
- Reduced Handling Time — Continuous routing from station to station dramatically reduces inter-process transfer time on assembly lines
Applications
- Automobile plants
- Body shops
- Assembly lines
- Foundry units
