SWF ATHLO belt
Need help selecting the right hoist? Our engineers are ready to help with selection, design, and install — whether it’s for a new system or a retrofit.
The SWF ATHLO Belt hoist is specially designed for environments where safety and cleanliness are essential — making it ideal for industries such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, and chemical manufacturing. Built for loads between 500 kg and 5,000 kg, it delivers reliable lifting with a focus on hygiene and durability.
Its compact design ensures minimal C-dimensions, allowing for optimal space utilisation in tight or cleanroom environments. The high-performance hoisting belt resists a wide range of chemicals, solvents, and oils, making it a robust solution for demanding applications.
-
Clean and Safe: Ideal for cleanrooms, food, chemical, and pharmaceutical sectors.
-
Durable Belt: High-tenacity material resists acids, alkalis, solvents, and oils.
-
Low Headroom: Minimal C-dimensions allow for maximum workspace usage.
-
Overload & Overheat Protection: Standard safety features protect both hoist and structure.
-
Flexible Options: Available with manual, electric, or curved trolleys, and stainless steel components.
At Granada Cranes, we pride ourselves on fast and efficient turnaround times.
Chain hoists from trusted brands like Stahl and Liftket are typically available within 24 hours, thanks to UK-based stock.
For wire rope hoists, including SWF and Omis, standard models are usually delivered in 6 to 8 weeks, with longer lead times for bespoke configurations.
Full crane systems currently follow a standard turnaround of approximately 12 weeks from order to installation.
When it comes to spares, we can often source key components within 24 hours, although older or specialist parts may take longer depending on availability.
