Beta Max Offers the Leo Series of Portable Hoists for Industrial Glass Hoisting Applications


New Variable Frequency Drives Allow for Safer Lifting

Beta Max Inc., a leading provider of affordable material lifting solutions, offers its Leo Series of portable hoists for industrial glass hoisting applications. Featuring integrated Variable Frequency Drive Controllers, the Leo Series, which includes the Leo and the Leo XXL, offers contractors, builders and masons an easier and safer method for lifting fragile materials found in the glass industry.

Soft start and stop capabilities make the hoists perfect for the maneuvering of easily breakable products and operators are able to lift glass panes in finite increments and set them down delicately without the fear of causing damage.

The Leo XXL has a maximum lifting capacity of 2000 lbs. and can travel up to 225 feet high. The hoists can be easily attached to existing I-Beams using adjustable trolleys and can be equipped with motorized trolleys to provide horizontal as well as vertical movement.

To ensure optimum safety, the Leo hoists are equipped with a push button pendant and upper limit switch, enabling secure and easy up and down movement. The hoists also feature fail-safe brakes to hold the load securely when the hoist is not lifting or lowering material.

Additionally, the Leo hoists include a sturdy electrical controller with an overloading sensing device to protect the motor from damage caused by overwork or poor power supply.

Beta Max Hoists contain a non-rotating cable to help keep loads from spinning while lifting and lowering. All Beta Max Hoists Systems meet or exceed UL, CSA, & OSHA specifications.
