Description

The powerful and sturdy slewing jib arm crane MEISTER has proven itself a thousand times and is the most produced crane of its kind in the world.

Thanks to its infinite slewing range and its capacity of up to 12,500 kg, you can use it in almost any workplace, e.g. for feeding of machine tools, in warehouses, power plants, steel works, machine houses, or sewage treatment plants.

Due to its compact design, the crane features a maximum lifting height and is perfectly suitable for small and narrow operating rooms. With its optional electrical slewing gear, it provides increased ease of use when operated in the higher capacity / outreach range. The column-mounted crane MEISTER perfectly meets your requirements for indoor and outdoor use since column height and jib arm length can be adjusted individually.

Regarding fastening options, you can make your individual choice from comfortable doweling on concrete floor using the patented VETTER DowelPlate system VAS2, fastening on foundation using anchors, TopAnchor, or CompactAnchor, and base flange for fastening on a steel structure.

Moreover, we offer a suitable power supply, electric chain or rope hoists ELECTROLIFT®, radio remote control, hot-dip galvanizing, Ex-proof design according to ATEX, sophisticated control systems up to automatic crane operation as well as various other accessories.

Anchorage with anchors

AnchorFix
The classical anchorage with anchors, temolate and a set of nuts and washers. Delivery also comprises a detailed foundation plan with information about foundation size and required reinforcement.

Anchorage without screws jutting out

TopAnchor
The alternative anchorage without screws jutting out (no trip hazards). The foundation area is kept free and accessible until the final intallation of the crane. The crane can be put into operation immediately, because no grouting is needed.

Anchorage with optimum ease of installation

CompactAnchor
This anchorage offers th advantages of TopAnchor an is furthermore very easy to install. There is no need to mount separete parts on site. Positioning in the foundation pit is easy done by set screws

Fastening to steel structure or machine

Base flange, flush
Base flange, flush or plane machined surface, designed to attach the crane to a steel structure or machine. Fastening screws to be provided by the customer.

Power supply

Round cable

Power lead by cable loop, consisting of round cable and cable supporting tube to be mounted on the jib arm. Pendant control fixed to the hoist. Suitable for an outreach up to 3-5m (Depends on the jib clearance of the jib arm)

Round cable trailing system

Favourable power supply, consisting of round cable, cable trolleys, tensioning rope and suspension arms to fix the supply to the jib arm. Pendant control fixed to the hoist. Recommended for outreachs from 3-10 m (Depends on the jib clearance of the jib arm).

Flat cable trailing system

Robust power supply, consisting of flat cable, cable trolleys, C-rail and suspension arms to fix the supply to the jib arm. Pendant control fixed to the hoist. Standard for an outreach from 10 m or in combination with electrical slewing gear.

Ideal control

The pendant control is independently from the hoist movable on a separate C-rail. Consisting of flat cable, cable trolleys, two C-rails and suspension arms. Especially suitable for situations requiring a distance between operator and load, e.g. when load has to be carried over an obstacle or pit.

Surface finish

Paint system for indoor use

Cranes intended to be used in a hall are steel grit blasted and provided with a high-quality coating on the basis of corrosion category C2. It is suitable for minor atmospheric stress. The standard colour is daffodil yellow (RAL 1007) with a nominal layer thickness of 80 µm.

Other RAL shades, corrosion categories, and layer thicknesses are available as an option.

Paint system for outdoor use or production halls with high humidity

Cranes intended to be used outside require a special outdoor paint. For this purpose, the crane structure is steel grit blasted and provided with a high-quality outdoor coating on the basis of corrosion category C3. It is suitable for medium atmospheric stress. The standard colour is daffodil yellow (RAL 1007) with a nominal layer thickness of 120 µm.

Other RAL shades, corrosion categories, and layer thicknesses are available as an option.

Hot-dip galvanising

Hot-dip galvanising of crane structure on the inside and outside according to DIN EN ISO 1461.

TIP: We recommend hot-dip galvanising for outdoor use.
