• Performance & Capacity – Hoisting height from 6m to 24m, crane class A5 M5, with hoisting speeds of 4.2/0.7 m/min DOL.
• Drive & Control – SEW hoist motor, inverter-driven trolley and crane speeds, with remote control and optional spare handset.
• Safety Features – Integrated load limiter, travel/traverse limits with slowdown/stop, and optional data logger for performance tracking.
• Power & Protection – Operates on 415V 3-phase supply, 48V control voltage, with IP55/F class protection and IP66 aluminium limit housing.
• Build & Finish – Customisable main girder, indoor non-aggressive environment rating, Class 2.5 shot blast, and Hempel 2-pack epoxy coating.
These consolidated specs make the MRC 1.6T a practical, adaptable hoist engineered for productivity and compliance.
Designed for Efficiency: Ideal Use Cases
With a design optimised for limited ceiling space and controlled environments, the overhead crane MRC 1.6T delivers maximum utility in minimal clearance areas. Its operation is smooth, efficient, and suited to light industrial tasks.
Ideal applications include:
• Workshops and Small Fabrication Units: The compact frame and flexible installation make it ideal for light material handling and maintenance needs.
• Assembly Lines: Streamlined hoist functions ensure safe, accurate lifting and placement of components during manufacturing sequences.
• Tooling and Mould Handling: Its adjustable speeds and advanced controls assist in managing delicate tooling with care and stability.
• Educational or Training Facilities: For technical schools or training centres, it offers hands-on experience with reliable industrial machinery in a safe format.
Competitive Advantages: Why the MRC 1.6T Stands Out
The MRC 1.6T bridge crane delivers significant advantages over portable gantries and standard lifting equipment. Its compact design offers superior load control, smoother motion dynamics, and reduced mechanical strain, which extends the service life of connected machinery.
Key advantages of the MRC 1.6T hoist include durability with fewer stress points, inverter-driven precision control, and reduced servicing requirements for improved uptime. Supported by local manufacturing expertise and access to genuine parts, this lifting solution ensures consistent productivity and reliable technical assistance whenever required.
