Why are Modular Spreader Beams Becoming So Popular?

Modular lifting beams are becoming increasingly popular due to several key advantages. Firstly, they offer savings over fixed lifting beams, making them a more economical choice. Their design also makes them practical to store when not in use, and easy and economical to transport from site to site.

What's more, they can be used in a variety of lifting applications. A single modular beam can function as a simple 2-point lifting beam or, with two lower 2-leg chain slings, as a 4-point lifting system. For more complex lifting needs, additional spreader beams can be added to create a "One over Two" system or other configurations to handle specialist or misshaped objects.

Applications of Modular Spreader Beams

Modular spreader beams are essential in various industries, including:

• Construction: Lifting and positioning heavy materials with precision.
• Marine: Handling large and bulky ship components.
• Energy: Moving heavy equipment in power plants and oil rigs.
• Manufacturing: Assisting in the production and assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a modular spreader beam?

A modular spreader beam is a lifting device used to distribute the weight of a load across multiple points. Its modular design allows for easy adjustment to different lengths and configurations, making it highly versatile for various lifting applications.

How do modular spreader beams work?

Modular spreader beams work by attaching to a crane or other lifting equipment and spreading the load over a wider area. This helps to minimize stress on the load and lifting equipment, enhancing safety and stability during lifting operations.

How do I choose the right spreader beam for my application?

Choosing the right spreader beam depends on several factors, including the weight of the load, the length of the beam required, and the lifting environment. Our team of experts is available to help you select the best spreader beam for your specific needs.
