3. MACHINE INFORMATION
3.1 PREFACE
In 1990, Beta Max introduced a portable track hoist system or ladder hoist, as it is sometimes
called because of its ladder-like appearance. This product is being employed by
scaffolding companies, utilities, processing plants, and a variety of commercial
companies. Applications range from boiler repair, building construction and
maintenance, to temporary lifting requirements within industrial environments. The Maxial
Track Hoist provides a safer and more productive way to erect and dismantle scaffolding, a
more cost-effective material lifting solution on long-term construction jobs, and a flexible
material handling system for a variety of interior and exterior settings.
BetaMax products provide more value and flexibility for most low-end lift applications
than heavy lifting equipment, and are safer and more productive than the
“human chain”
manual method typically used in the erection of scaffolding. The Maxial Track Hoist requires
no tools to assemble.
The Maxial Track Hoist is typically mounted in a vertical position when used with
scaffolding. The hoist may be erected on the outside of the scaffold for easy access to the lift
equipment or within the scaffolding bay to facilitate offloading of the carrier at elevated
locations.
This chapter will cover the major components of the Maxial Track Hoist. Both models of hoist
have the same major components but may vary slightly in appearance.
The Maxial Track Hoist has the following characteristics:
—
Strong, lightweight - 3 lb/ft (44.6 g/cm) - aluminum track sections that are simple to
assemble using unique components called Kwik bolts.
—
Upper and lower limit switches, integrated with the winch that automatically senses
when the load reaches the top and the bottom respectively and turn the motor off.
—
A mechanical pawl style safety brake on the universal carriage that stops the entire load
in the unlikely event of a broken cable.
—
Both mechanical and electrical overload features that prevent workers from
attempting to lift more than 450 lb (204.1 kg).
—
A broad range of accessories that enables the Maxial Track Hoist to improve
productivity, safety, and ease of work in the following construction applications:
•
Roofing
•
General building/construction
•
Scaffold erection and dismantling
•
Tiling
•
Plastering
•
Carpentry
•
Insulation installation
