Honda gets a lift

Air operated hoists supplied by
Swindon Lifting from
the J D Neuhaus Mini
range have been
successfully deployed
on Honda of the UK
Manufacturing’s engine
block machining section.

Following an initial
installation in this
production area five years
ago, further hoists have
been supplied.

The hoists chosen for
these repetitive lift operations are the
J D Neuhaus Mini, with 125 and
250kg lift capacities. These are very
durable, robust units, suited to the
conditions and environment in which
they are being used. They are
also reported to use far
less air than many other
pneumatic hoists and
have proved to be a
considerable
improvement over the
wire rope balancers
previously used.

The J D Neuhaus Mini
series hoists can be supplied
in four lifting capacities up to
a maximum of 980kg.
