DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS OF THE EQUIPMENT

Lifting beam PEF-PEM
Lifting component to handle an underhung load with several hooking points.
The beams and hooking points of the adjustable lifting beams have been designed for the lifting of
parts greatly out of balance (sketch 1).
The working parameters of a lifting beam are the working load limit (WLL) or (CMU), the maximum lifting
speed of the lifting appliance VL and the usage group depending on the frequency of the handling
operations and also whether or not the lifting beam is loaded to the maximum.
Pal-beam
Lifting component for symmetrical or unsymmetrical handling of loads.
The beam has two lower adjustable suspension sets on the flanges of the section with quick locking
thanks to a spindle.
These lifting points and the beam configuration enable the lifting of the load with a maximum inclination
angle of the section of 6° out of the horizontal line and a maximum inclination angle of 15° of the lower
suspension points (see scheme).
The technical sheets T 6041 (Pal-beam) and T 6042 (PEF-PEM) are at your disposal for technical
