Hand pulled hoists and electric hoists are both lightweight and small lifting equipment with outstanding lifting capabilities. Recently, a netizen inquired about whether hand pulled hoists and electric hoists can be used in combination? Here is a brief analysis from China Airlines regarding this matter.
The combination of a chain hoist and an electric hoist only occurs when both devices have insufficient lifting capacity, but there is no extra lifting equipment to lift the pen. However, the combination of the two can achieve the lifting capacity. Strictly speaking, such use is not allowed because the shared focus of multiple lifting equipment is not only on overloading, but also on the smoothness of lifting operations.
Hand pulled hoists and electric hoists are two devices with completely different driving principles. The former uses manual driving, while the latter uses electric driving. There is a significant difference in lifting frequency, making it difficult to form synchronization, which naturally leads to the imbalance of the lifting target during the lifting process, resulting in the risk of falling. Therefore, it is not recommended to use hand pulled hoists and electric hoists together.
