Compact, space-saving skip hoists provide fast, dependable lifting for all material handling operations. Charge mixers, lift barrels, containers, scrap metal, grain—the applications are endless. Low-profile, roll-over or bottom-dump designs fits into tight work areas. Heavy-duty construction assures long life and stability on the oversized frame and track. We can modify and design the skip hoist to accept all types and sizes of containers or loose materials. Capacities are available from 3 to 100 cu. ft. Higher capacities are also available with custom design.
