01-Project Overview
In December 2024, our company successfully exported a FOH Type Counterweight Wire Rope Electric Hoist (M5 Duty Rating) to a steel processing facility in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, specializing in acid pickling and galvanizing. The hoist is used for heavy-duty lifting tasks during the steel surface treatment process, including acid cleaning and hot-dip galvanizing. The operating environment is highly humid and corrosive, placing rigorous demands on equipment performance and durability.
02-Industry Background
The acid pickling and galvanizing industry poses dual challenges for lifting equipment:
- Highly corrosive environments (acid mist and high humidity)
- High-frequency operations (frequent material handling in and out of treatment lines)
The client required a high-performance European-style hoist to ensure safe, stable, and continuous lifting in a harsh production environment and to support future automation upgrades.
03-Customer Requirements
• Frequent lifting of heavy steel materials between pickling and galvanizing lines
• Limited headroom; equipment must have a compact structure with maximum lifting stroke
• Strong anti-corrosion capabilities to operate reliably in acidic and humid conditions
• M5 duty rating to support high-intensity continuous operation
• Integrated smart functions such as run-time recording and maintenance alerts
04-Solution
We recommended the FOH-type European electric hoist with a counterweight structure, featuring a compact low headroom design tailored to the client’s space limitations. The entire system includes galvanized wire rope, corrosion-resistant motors, and sealed electrical components, providing long-lasting durability in acid-laden environments. Manufactured in compliance with EN ISO European standards, the hoist is also equipped with an intelligent run-time monitor and PLC-ready interface for future digital system integration.
05-Project Highlights
- Corrosion-resistant design: Galvanized wire rope and moisture-proof electrical system adapt well to acid mist environments
- Smart function integration: Built-in operation timer, maintenance alert system, and remote upgrade interface
- Optimized for headroom: Counterweight low headroom structure achieves maximum lifting stroke in limited space
- Fast delivery: Completed production and delivered to UAE port within 65 days
- Excellent client feedback: The hoist performed with high precision and safety, earning client satisfaction and prompting plans to order three more units for a new production line
