Passenger and Materials Hoists

RAXTAR passengers and materials hoists operate at the heart of the logistics of construction projects. Due to their reliability under the severest conditions, RAXTAR construction hoists for passenger and materials guarantee the supply of materials and personnel around the clock at the right time at the right place (height).

RAXTAR hoists are available with car lengths of 3,20 m to 4,00 m (10’-6” to 13’-1”), lifting speeds of 40 to 90 m/min (135 to 300 ft/min) and pay loads of 1500 to 3200 kg (3300 to 7000 lbs).

Higher speeds and lifting capacities and larger car dimensions upon request.

Industrial Lifts

RAXTAR industrial lifts are designed to operate in a wide range of different industries, all having in common the need for a reliable access to one or more core industrial processes. RAXTAR industrial lifts are low maintenance, long life, robust solutions to power plants, petrochemical plants, oil refineries, asphalt and concrete mixing plants, oil and drilling rigs, etc.

RAXTAR industrial lifts are available with car lengths of 3,20 m to 4,00 m (10’-6” to 13’-1”), lifting speeds of 40 to 90 m/min (135 to 300 ft/min) and pay loads of 1500 to 3200 kg (3300 to 7000 lbs).

Higher speeds and lifting capacities and larger car dimensions upon request.

 

Material Hoists 

Like all other RAXTAR solutions, the development of the RAXTAR material hoists is based on real life hands-on experience combined with innovative technologies. In fact, for the development of the RAXTAR material hoist, RAXTAR joined forces with a large Dutch general contractor in order to combine both companies best practises on maintaining, operating and using material hoists. The partnership resulted in a robust, low maintenance, highly reliable and safe material hoist, that is widely used amongst others by the general contractor it self (100 units). 

RAXTAR material hoists are available with platform dimensions of 1,40 m x 1,50 m (4’-7” x 4’-11”), a lifting speed of 28 m/min (92 ft/min) and a pay load of 500 kg (1100 lbs).

Higher speeds and lifting capacities and larger car dimensions upon request.

 

Solution Characteristics

RAXTAR solutions provide the best answer to safe and reliable vertical access systems for the lowest Total Cost of Ownership in the market. Some of the special characteristics of the RAXTAR hoists and lifts can be found here below.

The Flex Drive

Every RAXTAR passenger and materials hoist and lift is equipped with “the Flex-Drive”. The Flex-Drive is a 3D-concept that results in a smoother drive of the hoists along the mast, guaranteeing less wearing of parts like the racks, pinions, ties and electronic devices.

Modularity

All RAXTAR hoists are modular; the length of a hoist cage can easily be adapted from 3.20 m to 3.60 m or 4.00 m. Every two RAXTAR single cage hoists can be combined to a twin cage configuration without the need of any extra parts or modifications. A every single cage RAXTAR hoist can be change from a left to a right mast position in no time.

 

Remote monitoring

RAXTAR hoists with a software based control system can be accessed remotely via the internet. As a result failures can be addressed on-line meaning down-times are decreased drastically. Maintenance intervals are optimized by getting the right information on usage on the fly or proactively. The owner of the hoists can manage his fleet from a distance.

 

Standard Electrical Parts
 

The electrical systems of all RAXTAR hoists are based on standard components available around the globe. Unlike traditional hoist suppliers, RAXTAR solutions are based on an open concept, that lowers delivery times and costs.

 

Safety & Regulations

RAXTAR solutions are manufactured in the Netherlands and comply with the highest safety standards. All RAXTAR passenger and materials hoists are certified according to European Norms and Regulations (EN-12159) or American standards ANSI/ASSE A10.4.

Bluetooth/Wireless LAN communication
 

RAXTAR hoist use innovative technologies to optimize TCO and increase functionalities. By using Bluetooth or Wireless LAN communication between the hoist cabin and the ground enclosure (or even between multiple hoists at a job site) simple materials and maintenance costs decrease while in the meantime functionality like optimized logistics increases.

Automatic & Intelligent Lubrication
 

The greasing of the racks is an important and sometimes cumbersome maintenance aspect of rack and pinion driven machinery. All RAXTAR hoists and lifts can be equipped with an intelligent greasing system, where the hoist “itself” will take care of the greasing of the rack, knowing which parts of the rack need to be greased and at what intervals.

These are only a few characteristics of our solutions. Do not hesitate to contact RAXTAR to learn more about our hoists and lifts and understand how they will provide you with a smoother ride to the top!
