Columbus McKinnon's promise of quality

Technological and constructive quality

The safe, reliable and precise drive technology meets a wide range of requirements in terms of load range, size or lifting speed. As a result, the products meet the needs of numerous, demanding industries.

Modular system

Thanks to its modular design, the lifting unit/system can be implemented as required, according to the respective application with defined interfaces.

Synchronous operation and positioning

Multi-spindle systems can be implemented easily and cost-effectively by means of connecting shafts or electronic synchronization control. In addition, infinitely variable positioning is possible through defined stroke and attachment of electronic components.

High security

Fall protection is provided by a self-locking spindle and/or safety brakes on the drive. If the support nut breaks, a rotating safety nut also absorbs the load. This significantly increases the operational safety of the drive elements and, if necessary, meets requirements for personal protection or accident prevention regulations.

High environmental compatibility

The risk of leakage is minimal, especially when using grease-lubricated lifting gears. In addition, the drive elements have lower CO2 emissions compared to pneumatic and hydraulic solutions.

Lower cost of ownership

They result from the lower energy requirement compared to hydraulic and pneumatic drives.

 

Drive Technology for the Steel Industry

In steelmaking and other heavy industries, drive technology is expected to lift, move and precisely position heavy loads under extreme adverse conditions. This requires specific solutions and technical know-how.

Columbus McKinnon Engineered Products, which has been one of the world's leading suppliers of special drive technology components for steelmaking and heavy industry for many years under the Pfaff-silberblau brand, offers both.

  • Standard screw jacks in the load range from 0.5 t to 75 t
  • Heavy-duty screw jacks in the load range from 100 t to 200 t
  • Special screw jacks for special solutions
  • Special screw jacks for casting pan adjustments
  • Complete furnace lifting systems for coating lines
