Air Operated Hook Lift Unit

The DTC Trade Centres have a relatively consistent air operated hook lift system (Jib Crane).

These units have an articulating arm and load capacity of just 75Kgs.

Load Balancing Attachment

The load balancers are adjustable in a way that allows the load to be lifted at different speeed rates and there is also a switch to in effect dump the air when one desires to release the load.

Supply Compressor

DTC have usually used an Atlas Copco compressor, however this is a general observation and not applicable to all sights.
