Clean, safe and hygenic materials handling

Materials handling specialist J. D. Neuhaus (JDN) can provide a whole host of innovative hoist solutions for working environments that demand high levels of cleanliness and hygiene. Industries such as food, beverage, pharmaceutical and chemical must all conform to strict regulations when it comes to clean working practices. Utilizing the appropriate materials handling equipment, therefore, is a paramount requirement and to meet this, JDN has created a nickel plated hoist to ensure the highest level of cleanliness.

Designed specifically for clean operating environments, this hygienically robust hoist can be configured in their standard Profi TI series for 0.5 to one metric ton, or big bag handling unit and low headroom trolley hoist for one metric ton. All of these feature outer surfaces plated in 25 µm thick nickel.

Where Profi hoists are required to run on overhead rails, both manually operated and motorized trolleys can be provided with nickel plating features on the gearbox/motor and body.

For applications, such as commercial kitchens, the JDN Profi hoists offer a number of useful standard features including, high corrosion and humidity resistance, ease of cleaning and suitability for lube free operation. JDN also has a number of stainless steel options including the chain, load hook and sleeve and top hook.

JDN’s nickel plated big bag handling air hoist is part of a range of products designed for applications that need to process powdered, granulated or other free flowing materials which need regular, high volume top-ups in order to maintain the high levels of production. These hoists are suitable for handling food products such as salt, sugar, flour and starch, as well as chemical and pharmaceutical products. All these air operated JDN products provide explosion protection features for safe operation when being used in potentially explosive work environments.

Big bag handling air hoists are available at carrying capacities of 1.1 and 2.2 metric tons (with 85 psi air pressure). They can be supplied in two configurations of single or twin lift/load hooks. The single hook unit is designed for operation with a standard cruciform lifting beam. The large distance between the hook and the chain box advantageously eliminates potential collisions between the load and the chain box.

Twin load hook models operate with more complex multi-point crossbeam designs, or for standard lifting beams featuring twin suspension points. In addition, they can be operated with synchronized lifting operation.

J D Neuhaus has a history that can be traced back to 1745, and is now in its seventh generation of family ownership. Visitors to the Hebezeug-Museum (Hoist Museum) in Witten, are able to see for themselves the remarkable history of this progressive company. With over 200 employees across the group, the company manufactures pneumatically and hydraulically operated hoists and crane systems up to 115 metric ton capacity from its state of the art facility in Witten, Germany. This globally unique specialization means that J D Neuhaus has set the quality standard for the market; a move that has seen the company become the established global leader in its technology field with customers in more than 90 countries worldwide.

Over 80 percent of production from the Witten plant is exported, which is why the company has long established subsidiary companies in France, Great Britain, Singapore and the USA, all of which have helped create a tight knit global network in collaboration with international partners.

Resilience and reliability are the key product differentiators setting JDN apart from their competitors, thanks largely to the explosive protection rating which makes their hoists ideal for use even in the most challenging of operating environments. Extreme applications include oil and gas exploration in arctic temperatures as low as minus 45 degrees C, along with underwater tasks such as ship hull repairs, and plenty of others in demanding sectors like mining, the chemical industry, heavy plant construction and many areas of logistics.

J D Neuhaus’ wide portfolio of services goes beyond manufacturing and also includes equipment assembly, inspection, maintenance and general overhaul, along with customer training courses and other consultative services.
