SPREADERS
Daily work in many production companies involves lifting and transporting heavy and bulky loads. One tried-and-tested load-lifting device in these cases is a lifting beam. WIMO Hebetechnik offers different versions of extremely durable spreaders with a high-quality finish that protect materials and prevent accidents. They are all characterised by their robust design and ease of use.
One thing above all is very important to the design of spreaders: A custom design. This is because the goods or tools being transported differ between sectors or branches of industry just as much as the framework and application conditions. WIMO Hebetechnik offers its customers precisely these custom solutions. Every WIMO® product is precisely calibrated for the individual application scenario in terms of its design and height. The highly innovative WIMO® transport solutions in the field of spreaders are also developed and designed for extreme application areas if necessary. Fully automated heavy load transportation (Industry 4.0) is also possible with the support of WIMO Hebetechnik.

- Versatile use for sensitive goods
Spreader with articulated magnets

- Suspended magnets for even load distribution
- Safe transport thanks to optimised force distribution
- Ideal for long, magnetisable loads
Heavy-duty spreader with special pneumatic mount

- Special pneumatic mounting device
- Developed for demanding industrial applications
- Robust construction for maximum operational reliability
Telescopic spreader for transporting long loads

- Large telescopic range for variable lengths
- Crane suspension either central or with 2-crane connection
- Ideal for truck loading with varying load lengths
- Optionally available with roller-mounted booms for convenient manual adjustment
Whether in mechanical engineering, metalworking, or logistics: the safe and efficient transport of heavy, bulky loads is part of daily operations. WIMO® spreaders offer the right solution here – sturdily constructed, individually customized, and designed for maximum safety and durability. Even extreme load distributions and different load centers can be safely accommodated by special crane suspensions.
Typical areas of application
- Load handling of machines, workpieces, sheet metal, or coils
- Internal heavy-duty transport
- Crane operation in factory buildings, transshipment centers, or port areas
- Use in automated or manually controlled lifting systems
Technical specifications (depending on design)
- Load capacity: individually designed according to customer requirements and safety requirements
- Construction: welded or bolted design
- Height and length: precisely adapted to the conditions of use
- Crane connection: central or 2-crane suspension for increased stability. Suspension via chain slings reduces tilting when the center of gravity is off-center
Additional elements
- Adjustable suspension brackets (longitudinal/transverse)
- Support or impact protection (interchangeable)
- Roller-bearing telescopic boom (on request)
- Gimbal hook suspension for protection against uneven loads
Advantages in use
- Individually tailored to the goods being transported and the operating environment
- Robust construction for maximum safety and load capacity
- Gentle lifting thanks to precise load distribution
- High level of safety with off-center center of gravity thanks to 2-crane suspension
- Flexible adaptation to a wide variety of load geometries
- Time savings thanks to telescopic booms and automatic functions
- Less wear thanks to attached protective mechanism
- Space-saving variants ideal for truck loading and confined hall conditions
- Secure fixation of the load through automatic closing/opening mechanism during lifting and lowering
Technical innovations & USP
- Customized production based on individual operating parameters
- Can also be designed for extreme operating conditions
- Optionally available for fully automated operation (Industry 4.0)
- Decades of experience in the development of special spreaders
