FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

Not covered here? Send your drawing — an engineer replies within 2 business hours.

What is the difference between BAULIFT-T and BAULIFT-W?
BAULIFT-T ('Topf' / basket) has a torsion-balanced dual-sheath construction specifically designed to coil by gravity into a cylindrical collection basket (minimum diameter 450 mm) at the base of the hoist cage. BAULIFT-W ('Wagen' / trolley) has a lighter, smaller-diameter single-sheath construction designed to run on mast-guided cable trolleys down to -30 °C.
Why does BAULIFT-T specify 0 °C for basket coiling while BAULIFT-W is rated to -30 °C?
In a gravity basket system, only the cable's own weight lays the loops into the 450 mm basket, requiring maximum jacket suppleness (≥ 0 °C) so loops settle flat. On a mast trolley system (BAULIFT-W), the cable is positively guided by rollers and trolleys and can operate down to -30 °C.
What maximum hoist height is supported without intermediate cable support?
Both BAULIFT-T and BAULIFT-W integrate a central strain-bearing support element rated for 1,000 N tensile force, allowing up to 80 m of free-hanging suspended cable length on rack-and-pinion construction lifts.
Which construction hoists use 4G../5G.. + 6×1 to 15×1 composite cables?
Rack-and-pinion personnel/material hoists and mast climbers (such as Geda, Alimak, Scanclimber and Stros) use the 4G or 5G power cores (2.5 to 25 mm²) to feed the cage hoist motors while the 1.0 mm² control cores carry landing calls, limit switches and safety gear interlocks.
