• Minimise construction cycle times

  The Consep Hoist minimises construction cycle times by maximising availability, increasing efficiency and eliminating wasteful downtime.
  
  Consep Hoists can safely operate in high wind conditions when cranes cannot. If you can work on the building, the Consep Hoist can move your material. Even in fine weather, crane availability is the number one cause of down time. The Consep Hoist is a dedicated materials transport solution which is available on demand and eliminates costly down time waiting for cranes to move materials.
  
  Consep Hoists also eliminate the need to dismantle, pack and strap formwork and other construction materials for lifting by crane during the construction cycle. The large platform provides ample room to roll on all manner of material, including large items such as complete table forms, for lifting by the Consep Hoist and rolling out at the required level.
  
  The Consep Hoist is unique in its ability to provide live deck access and true day zero access to the poured deck eliminating downtime inherent in other hoisting options. Material can be rolled from the Consep Hoist to the live deck, or the freshly poured deck as soon as concrete has cured sufficiently to be walked on.

  Built in safety for in-built confidence

  Safety is paramount and the Consep Hoist is designed with safety in mind. The large platform fully contains loads within the Consep Hoist car, preventing ‘fly offs’ and other uncontrolled material movements or falls associated with crane lifts, without the need for complex and time consuming strapping. ‘No gap’ edge protection allowing for full integration with perimeter screens further guards against material falls by preventing loose material from ever escaping the perimeter of the building. An optional catch net which mounts to the base of the Consep Hoist rails is also available as secondary protection.
  
  The highest levels of safety are integrated into the Consep Hoist itself, with automatic over speed sensing safety brakes, mechanical locking pawls, top and bottom end of travel and over travel switches, remote control and full width electrically interlocked landing gates, you can rest assured your workers (and your company) are in safe secure hands.

  Flexible and easy to operate

  The Consep Hoist is a highly flexible system designed to accommodate the demands imposed by modern high rise structures. It can be installed either on the external face of the building or internally within a penetration. Both hoist car travel distance and landing gate height are flexible to accommodate varying floor heights and different formwork systems and construction techniques. We can also accommodate inclined facades.
  
  The Consep Hoist is designed to service only the uppermost floors, allowing façade to be closed out below and ensuring minimal if any disruption to fitout and following trades.
  
  Use of the Consep Hoist as a movable crane landing platform provides added flexibility to an already highly versatile materials movement solution.
  
  Although typically operated from the lower deck, the Consep Hoists simple up / down remote control allows operation from anywhere within sight of the Consep Hoist car by existing site personnel with only basic operator licensing. Ticketing requirements vary from region to region, however Consep Hoist specific operator training is provided by Consep.
  
  On board PLC control and monitoring ensures smooth operation and event logging. Remote access to the PLC for maintenance and troubleshooting purposes maximises availability for movement of materials.
