Air hoists (also known as pneumatic hoists) and electric hoists are two types of lifting equipment with different power sources.
Pneumatic hoists utilize air pressure as their power source and typically comprise pneumatic motors, wire ropes, lifting mechanisms, and operating control systems. They are characterized by their simple structure, safety, reliability, and stable operation. These hoists are suitable for special environments such as those with explosion hazards or in damp and corrosive conditions. They find wide application in handling and lifting operations in factories, warehouses, ports, and other locations.
Electric hoists, on the other hand, are powered by electric motors and usually consist of electric motors, wire ropes, lifting mechanisms, control systems, and safety protection devices. They are known for their compact size, light weight, and ease of operation. Electric hoists are extensively used in handling and lifting operations across various settings such as factories, warehouses, and docks, and they are adaptable to diverse working environments.
