How Imer Builders Hoists Work

An Imer gantry hoist can be securely mounted to the tip of the frame. The framework can then be positioned over the edge of the structure to allow the hoist to do its lifting work. The gantry must be counter-balanced to the rear to prevent the gantry, hoist and load from tipping over the edge.

Counter-balancing is done with the addition of ballast boxes. These are fitted to the rear of the gantry frame. The ballast boxes are filled with suitable, heavy materials to a specific weight. This is to offset the weight it will need to lift and hold. you can see more about the gantry frame in our scaffold and gantry hoist accessories page.
