Many factories experience the same situation:
The lifting load is identical, never exceeds the rated capacity, yet hoists fail at different times.

The cause is not luck — and not necessarily product quality alone.
It is the actual operating conditions.

Engineers evaluate factors such as:

  • Lifting frequency per day

  • Number of Start/Stop cycles

  • Sudden load shocks or jerking

  • Continuous operating time (Duty Cycle)

A facility that lifts heavy loads occasionally
requires a different specification than one that lifts moderate loads continuously throughout the day.

Selecting a hoist should not be based only on rated capacity.
It must match the real working conditions.

Choosing the right specification helps extend equipment lifespan, reduce maintenance costs, and improve long-term operational efficiency.
