Enerpac SyncHoist hoisting and positioning system

The Enerpac SyncHoist system is a wireless-controlled, precision hydraulic load hoisting and positioning system. The latest version, which also features diesel power for operational versatility, provides load manoeuvring vertically and horizontally using one crane to control loads up to hundreds of tonnes, while reducing the risk of damage from oscillations of wire rope due to sudden crane starts and stops.

Using hydraulics to monitor and guide compact but powerful 700 bar double-acting push-pull cylinders integrated into four lifting points above loads, the SyncHoist SHS system is also used for pre-programmed positioning, tilting and aligning of loads and for counterweighting and determining their centre of gravity.

The system is claimed to enable a crane driver to more simply perform complex load lifting, shifting and positioning manoeuvres from the cab, ensuring loads remain evenly positioned during the process and performing point load indications and checks where required.

Available in load capacities customised to individual tasks, with system reach of 1500 mm from each of several lifting points, the system has high accuracies (±1,0 mm), less dependence on weather conditions and improved operating speed and worker safety.
