JOEST® Swivel Lifting Columns of the MSH Series can be used wherever containers need to be picked up, precisely positioned, retracted or swiveled from different positions and heights. The slim, three-dimensional JOEST swing-lifting column enables optimal space utilization and flexible container handling, which supports and accelerates the subsequent process technology. Thanks to the interplay of lifting and swiveling, the tipping of the input material is eliminated. Therefore, a product-friendly transfer process can be realized with minimized material mixing.
The vertical lifting column with top-mounted lifting drive is shifted on a slewing ring. This makes the swiveling process possible. The load-handling equipment can be equipped with a separate tipping drive that allows tipping up to 180 degrees.
The drives controlled by frequency converters ensure increased hoisting speed with reduced positioning speed in the end positions as well as exact positioning of the swivel lifting column. The compact design can achieve tipping heights of 500 mm to 12,000 mm with load-bearing capacity of up to 500 kg. If additional functions are required, these can also be implemented by means of various options. The high level of flexibility in the container feed enables power-saving and ergonomically designed handling, for example, by manual loading of the load-handling equipment at ground level.
The advantages of the MSH series include not only the reduction in energy expenditure, but also the time savings which an automatic tipping process provides.
