Different types and styles are; fixed mount (solid mounted) with monorail trolley, single girder / double girder short headroom (low head room) and crab units. Wire rope hoists give a better duty cycle than a comparative electric chain hoist so are more suitable for heavy duty use such as a production environment. They are also available with greater heights of lift and commonly supplied up to 100 tonne.
