The first wire rope hoist was introduced
in 1948. It was well received in the market place and did soon
obtain the reputation for being a modern and well designed and
good quality hoist unit! It rapidly picked up popularity in
many countries, and already in the 60's, licence production
was established in India, New Zealand, Australia and South Africa!
Although this first generation of Munck hoists were subject
to continuous improvements over the years, the next generation
of hoists were gradually introduced in the early 801s until
the entire family was completed in 1985.
The Munck wire rope hoists as they appear today are further
improved and are designed and built to comply with all international
rules and regulations, which also qualifies for "CE" - marking.
The present quality and reliability of the "New Munck" wire
rope hoist is a direct result of Munck's 75 years of experience
within design, manufacturing and supply of these for different
applications.
Since the first hoist was introduced to the market in 1948 and
up to the present time, thousands of Munck hoists have been
delivered to satisfied customers all over the world. As a matter
of fact, a considerable amount of Munck hoists from the very
first generation are still in full operation!
The Munck wire rope hoists are applied within most types of
industry, and are to be found in a small ice-block factory in
a village outside Jakarta, in the deep forests of Borneo used
in saw mills, in palm oil factories in Ghana and Zaire as well
as in the most modern steel making plants and offshore installations
in USA and Europe.
The Munck hoist is recognised all over the world as a quality
product. This reputation inspired us to invent the Munck logo
"Quality Throughout". |
