A Note on Festooning Systems

Article submitted by Hoist Direct

Ever wonder how long it would have taken if festooning systems were available to those who managed the building of the Egyptian pyramids?

Nothing much has changed since then as in industry or construction there will be a need for heavy objects to be moved from one place to the other. Yet without these machines today, most of the industrial work carried out will not be able to move any faster as it is currently capable of.

Take for example, the come along winch that is normally used for line construction work. What would you do without such a device in getting things moving especially when it comes to objects that are at least 1000 or 1500 pounds (if you use the single line version) or at least 2000 to 3000 pounds (the double line version). Yet these devices themselves aren’t heavy (about ten and a half pounds) and are easily transportable anywhere on the job site if necessary.

So, you can imagine the thought and research that has gone into making such a device for the benefit of construction and industrial purposes anywhere.

But that’s not all as there are other devices (such as winch-hoists) that carry a load of up to 8000 pounds and more. There are several companies that offer these products and one of the most popular models of winch-hoists that are available is the Myte winch-hoist series, with its electric chain hoist being the best in its class.

If that’s not enough, most of these systems are compact and lightweight, so you shouldn’t find it to be too difficult especially if you need to move it around the construction or industrial site for varying purposes.
