Coil tongs
In many industrial enterprises, coils need to be transported, turned and placed into storage while raised. This needs to be done in a way that is as protective as possible for the materials and as safe as possible for employees. WIMO Hebetechnik offers innovative and durable heavy load transportation solutions for this purpose.
Coil tongs from WIMO® enable safe and rapid transportation and allow coils to be turned and placed into storage. Like all WIMO® products, all coil tongs are custom-designed for the individual application scenario. The circumstances on-site are taken into consideration and utilised to optimal effect. This results in innovative and high-performance special-purpose designs. Our coil tongs are designed for a very long service life.
Attachment for transporting coils and bundles of sheet metal loaded on pallets

Attachment for transporting coils and bundles of sheet metal loaded on pallets. Ideal for occasional changes of goods to be transported. Designed for fast and safe slinging without time-consuming changing of the load handling attachment. The sheet metal package adapter is placed in a trestle. The coil tongs retract into the adapter with the claws on both sides. By picking up the adapter, the load safety device of the coil tongs switches. The load safety device prevents the tong arms from opening under load - in this case "under the load of the adapter". Even in the event of accidental incorrect operation, the tong arms will not open. Safe transport of the sheet packs is guaranteed.
Stand with ladder and maintenance platform

Stand with ladder and maintenance platform - allows easy access to mechanical and electrical interfaces and for maintenance work.
Scrap container tong

Scrap container tong with suspension adapter for coil tongs. Enables the load handling attachment to be picked up without manual intervention for transporting scrap containers.
Horizontal turning gear with slewing ring design, motorised drive

Robust horizontal slewing unit with stable slewing ring design. Ideal for 2-point crane suspension and for eccentric loads.
Sliding bolt on rollers

User-friendly design: The sliding bolt is guided on rollers and secured by an end stop to prevent it from falling out.
Hinged support prongs

Hinged support prongs. Ideal for confined spaces and for protecting coils during entry into the coil eye.
Locking the coil tongs in the uppermost crane lifting position

Locking the coil tongs in the uppermost crane lifting position. Ensures safe crane and trolley travel without swaying.
Light barriers

Light barriers enable fast and safe positioning of the gripper arms in front of the coil eye. Particularly effective in combination with folding clamps. In this case, the operator only unfolds the claws when the light barriers indicate via signal lamps that the support claws are in the centre of the coil eye. This avoids unnecessary contact with the coil windings.
Weld-on hooks

Weld-on hooks on both sides for flexible transport of additional loads without removing the coil tongs from the crane hook.
Weighing system

Integrated weighing device directly in the steel structure. Saves height compared to separate scales and offers precise weight measurement.
Protector made of synthetic material

Protector made of synthetic material (changeable) to protect the outer coil windings.
Bolt suspension. With sliding bolt upon request

Bolt suspension on request with sliding pin to protect the crane hook.
Bottom protector made of synthetic material

Bottom protector made of synthetic material (changeable) to protect the outer coil windings.
Extendable support prongs

Telescopic support brackets for coil tongs for the simultaneous transport of several slit strips. Particularly secure support for the slit strips. All slit strips are gripped underneath.
