Take a look at some of the features and specs of the CM® StageStar™ Hoist:

Robust Body: Engineered for the demanding needs of the entertainment industry, the CM StageStar Electric Chain Hoist features a robust body and durable fibre reinforced composite covers that can withstand the most rigorous applications.

Easy To Service: The StageStar Hoist is an easy-to-maintain, modular-designed device. The gear box is maintenance-free for the whole lifetime of the hoist. All critical parts like the chain guide and load wheel, electronic board, brake, and motor, are easily accessible with standard tools.

D8+ Rating: In standard configuration, the motors on the CM StageStar are rated D8 plus in accordance with SQ P2 (2018). A double brake is standard with CM StageStar D8 Plus electric chain hoists. This allows them to be used with the capability of holding loads at rest above people without using a secondary safety component, to accepted standards and codes of practice.

Extended Lifetime: Lifetime lubricated gearbox means no oil change is required.

Safety: Slip clutch protects all load-bearing components from overload. Designed to guarantee a safe, permanent connection between the load and the brake to meet higher safety requirements.

Adaptable Extensions: The CM Stagestar Electric Chain Hoist boasts adaptable extensions, enhancing its versatility and functionality. With limit switches integrated into its design, precise control over lifting heights is ensured, allowing for efficient and safe operation. Additionally, its gear shaft accommodates back-up limit switches or encoders, providing added reliability and peace of mind during heavy lifting tasks.
