A well-known rubber products manufacturer in Sri Lanka recently selected Yuantai as their lifting equipment supplier and placed an order for 20 units of single-phase electric chain hoists. The order contains 1-ton and 2-ton models, designed with 10m, 15m, and 20m lifting heights, 6.6 m/min lifting speed, and 230V/50Hz single-phase power—perfectly matching the customer’s actual workshop conditions and diverse material-handling needs.
Customer Background & Project Requirements
The client is a large rubber products factory engaged in the production of rubber blocks, molded components, industrial rubber sheets, and customized rubber parts. Their production lines involve frequent material lifting, mold handling, and product transfer between multiple workshops.
Key needs identified:
- Single-phase power requirement
- Most of the workshops only have access to 230V single-phase power. Installing a 3-phase line would require extra cost and construction time.
Multiple lifting heights across different workshops
- Raw material warehouse: 10m
- Production line workshop: 15m
- Storage & packing area: 20m
Safe and stable lifting for rubber blocks and metal molds
Daily lifting includes:
- Rubber raw material blocks (300–800 kg)
- Steel molds (600–1500 kg)
- Semi-finished products
- Packed goods
Batch purchase for unified equipment management
The factory required multiple hoists to be installed across 6 different workshops, and preferred a single supplier for unified maintenance and spare parts.
