The new fully modular Scando 650 hoist from Alimak Hek

Offering improved performance, durability and lifting capacity, with lower energy consumption and reduced cost of ownership.

Alimak has taken construction hoist technology to unprecedented levels with the introduction of the all-new Scando 650; a modular system that can adapt to different applications using relatively few modules and components.

Available in single or twin car configuration, the Scando 650 offers payloads of 1,500 to 3,200kg/car and has a standard maximum lifting height of 400m, which can be increased on request.

The free-standing mast height is 32m when equipped with an optional pipe support.

Two or three FC frequency control or two DOL motors drive the system through a high efficiency gearbox. The Scando 650 operates at speeds up to 65m/min and provides more hoistpower, while using as much as 40% less power than previous Scando models. Higher speed versions will be introduced later in the year.
