Product information

Overview

CM Lodestar AirXL Air Chain Hoists

CM Lodestar AirXL air chain hoists from Columbus McKinnon are heavy duty pneumatic hoists built for capacities beyond what traditional air chain hoists handle. With models from 2 to 6 tons, variable lifting speeds and 10 ft of lift, they are a proven choice in automotive plants, heavy equipment manufacturing, chemical plants and refineries.

Variable Speed Control for Heavy Loads

A six-vane rotary air motor drives each hoist, and pendant controls give the operator variable speed command over every lift, from fast open travel to gentle, accurate placement of heavy parts.

Built In Protection and Rugged Construction

A standard overload protector helps prevent lifting beyond rated capacity, and the clutch acts as an upper and lower limit to protect the hoist, chain and load. A forged ten-pocket, oblique-lay liftwheel provides smooth chain engagement and longer chain life.

Flexible Assembly Systems can help you size the hoist and plan suspension and air supply for your application. Contact our team for pricing, availability and application support.
