1. Lifting Capacity of the Hook and Its Lifting Accessories
When selecting a lifting hook, it's essential to match it with the lifting accessories used—such as shackles, chains, or rings. Elebia lifting hooks are designed with built-in mechanisms and sensors, making them slightly heavier and bulkier than standard hooks. However, our design team works to optimize their geometry to ensure compatibility with common lifting tools.
It’s important to confirm the size and shape of the lifting accessories your company uses. In some cases, you may need to adapt these accessories to fit the hook properly. For example, a 5-ton ring might work well with a 2.5-ton hook, but not with the evo2 crane hook. In such cases, either the accessories must be modified or a higher-capacity hook like the evo5 should be considered.
2. Application – Work Procedures
Lifting procedures vary widely depending on the industry and the type of cargo being handled. Some tasks are highly standardized, while others require more flexibility. Understanding the nature of your lifting operations is crucial in choosing the right hook.
For example, standardized loads like paper pulp bales have consistent dimensions and handling requirements, making it easier to choose a suitable hook. On the other hand, non-standardized loads like big bags can vary in size, shape, and lifting points, requiring a different approach.
– Paper Pulp
Paper pulp bales are typically wrapped tightly with wires, which requires a hook with a slim and precise tip. The evo2 crane hook was specifically designed for this application, allowing it to easily slide between the wires and securely engage the bale. This makes the lifting process efficient and safe. However, using an evo5 hook for this task would be less effective due to its larger profile.
– Big Bags
Big bags are a prime example of non-standardized cargo. They can be lifted using different types of slings and anchor points, making it challenging to find a one-size-fits-all solution. The evo2 hook may struggle to accommodate large slings or multiple handles, leading to improper engagement. In contrast, the evo5 hook, with its larger opening and more robust design, is better suited for handling big bags with ease and stability.
3) Nonoptimal Conditions
In many real-world scenarios, lifting operations are not always conducted under ideal conditions. Factors like dynamic loads, unbalanced weight distribution, hyperstatic lifting, and impacts can all affect the performance of your hooks.
For instance, sudden movements or wave action in offshore environments can create dynamic forces that increase the effective load on the hook. Similarly, an unbalanced load can cause uneven stress across lifting points, potentially overloading one hook. In such cases, it’s wise to choose a hook with a higher load capacity to account for these unpredictable variables.
