Crane & Material Handling

Crane & Material Handling Solutions

Crane and material handling operations depend on drive systems that combine extreme torque capacity with failsafe braking and duty-cycle reliability. Powercon's hoist gearboxes and conveyor drives are engineered for high-frequency start-stop operation, delivering safety and performance in ports, warehouses and industrial facilities.

S3/S4 Duty Class
300% Overload Capable
3 Drive Types
EN 13001 Standards Compliant
Hoist
1/3

Hoist

High-duty-cycle hoist gearboxes lift and lower heavy loads in overhead cranes and construction hoists, engineered for frequent start-stop operation and braking.

  • Integrated disc or drum brake options
  • Self-locking worm gears for load holding
  • High-duty-cycle rating (S3 40%+)
  • Emergency manual release mechanism
Elevators
2/3

Elevators

Worm and helical gear units drive freight and passenger elevator systems, providing smooth acceleration and precise positioning at each floor level.

  • Smooth, jerk-free acceleration profile
  • Low-noise helical gear option for passenger lifts
  • Integrated encoder compatibility for floor positioning
  • Compact machine-room-less (MRL) configurations
Conveyors
3/3

Conveyors

Robust gear motors power belt, chain and roller conveyors in warehouses, ports and manufacturing plants for continuous bulk and unit material movement.

  • Wide torque range for light to heavy loads
  • Vertecvfd-compatible for speed synchronisation
  • IP55+ rated for outdoor port installations
  • Modular design for easy maintenance access
