Freestanding 2 Post Gantry Track System

A completely freestanding straight track hoist system

The Guldmann two post gantry hoist system is a state-of-the-art non permanent lifting system designed to provide a safe and efficient way to lift and transfer patients with limited mobility. The system consists of a freestanding structure with two vertical posts, and a straight rail.

The gantry hoist system is particularly useful in healthcare facilities where patients with reduced mobility require assistance in moving from one place to another. It is height and length adjustable meaning it can quickly be installed without the need of permanent fixings, once removed it leaves no marks or damage.

One of the key benefits is its ease of use. The hoist can be operated by a single caregiver, who can easily manoeuvre the patient into the desired position. Additionally, the system is designed to be comfortable and safe for the patient, with soft slings and harnesses that provide support and stability during transfers.

This freestanding gantry track system offers a high degree of flexibility and is ideal for short term or emergency hoisting requirements. Operators assemble it at chest height, which reduces manual handling risks, before raising the system up to its full height of 2.8 metres. The height can be set according to the building requirements meaning low ceilings do not cause any issues.

The gantry is completely free standing and requires no structural support from the ceiling or walls. Two large feet are provided for stability, and the whole system is constructed from lightweight aluminium, making it very easy to transport and assemble.

Choice Of Hoist Units
The freestanding gantry track system is typically fitted with the GH1 hoist which provides a safe and reliable hoist for the track. The GH1 can have a SWL of either 175kg (27.5 stone), 200kg (31.5 stone), or 250kg (39.5 stone). This makes it ideal for the heavier user, and for use in situations where a mobile hoist is too heavy to push.

The GH1 is a battery powered hoist that charges via a plug in handset. No permanent electrical supply is required; ideal for easy installation and removal.

The GH1 is fitted with a loop style spreader bar as standard. Subject to risk assessment, this spreader bar is compatible with most loop style slings. There are three sizes of spreader bar available: Extra Small, Small and Medium. The two smaller versions make the hoisting of children very safe and secure.

Adjustable Track Length
The track length has a maximum length of 3.8 metres in the two post version. The track length is determined on site meaning the track does not have to be cut to fit specific rooms.

Track length options are as follows:
2220mm – 3390mm
2720mm – 3890mm
3220mm – 4390mm
