Types of Lifting Beams We Provide
At Carl Stahl Fabrication, we design and manufacture a wide range of bespoke lifting beams to suit specific lifting applications, load requirements and operating environments.
Modular lifting beams provide a versatile lifting solution that can be configured to suit a variety of load sizes and lifting scenarios. Designed for transportability and adaptability, modular systems are often used where multiple lifting arrangements are required across different projects or locations. Our engineering team can develop modular beam systems tailored to your operational needs.
Spreader beams are designed to reduce compressive forces on lifted loads by distributing the load through inclined slings. They are commonly used when lifting long or flexible loads that could be damaged by traditional lifting methods. We manufacture bespoke spreader beams in a variety of configurations to suit customer-specific lifting requirements.
For demanding lifting applications involving large or unusually shaped loads, heavy duty lifting beams can be designed and manufactured to suit specific project requirements. These bespoke solutions are commonly used within heavy engineering, construction, energy and infrastructure sectors, where safe and reliable lifting performance is critical.
Adjustable lifting beams provide increased flexibility by allowing lifting points to be repositioned to accommodate different load sizes and centres of gravity. These beams are for operations where multiple load configurations need to be handled using a single lifting device. Our adjustable lifting beams can be manufactured to a range of capacities, ensuring a practical solution for changing lifting requirements.
Fixed lifting beams are designed for repetitive lifting operations involving the same or similar loads. Offering a simple and robust design, fixed lifting beams are commonly used within manufacturing facilities, fabrication workshops and industrial environments. Each beam is engineered to suit the application, ensuring safe load distribution and efficient lifting performance.
FAQ
What is a bespoke lifting beam?
A bespoke lifting beam is a custom-designed lifting device engineered to suit a specific load, lifting configuration and site requirement. Unlike off-the-shelf lifting beams, bespoke solutions are manufactured to meet precise Safe Working Load (SWL), centre of gravity and dimensional specifications.
When should I choose a bespoke lifting beam over a standard beam?
A bespoke lifting beam is recommended when standard equipment cannot safely accommodate load geometry, lifting points, headroom restrictions or site constraints. Custom lifting beam fabrication ensures balanced lifting performance and compliance with applicable safety standards.
What information is required to design a custom lifting beam?
To design a bespoke lifting beam, we typically require:
Safe Working Load (SWL)
Load dimensions and weight distribution
Lifting point configuration
Headroom limitations
Operational environment
Any certification requirements
This allows accurate 3D CAD modelling and structural validation prior to manufacture.
Are bespoke lifting beams certified?
Yes. Our custom lifting beams can be supplied with full documentation, including design calculations, material traceability, welding certification and proof load testing certificates where required. All beams are engineered to comply with relevant UK and European lifting standards.
What materials are used in lifting beam fabrication?
Bespoke lifting beams are typically fabricated from high-grade structural steel such as S355. Material selection is based on load requirements, durability and operational environment, with optional protective coatings for corrosion resistance.
Can bespoke lifting beams be proof load tested?
Yes. We can carry out proof load testing in accordance with applicable standards before delivery. This ensures your fabricated lifting beam is ready for safe operation and supported by documented test certification.
What types of bespoke lifting beams can you manufacture?
We design and fabricate a range of custom lifting beams, including:
Spreader beams
Underslung lifting beams
Adjustable lifting beams
Modular lifting frames
Multi-point lifting beams
Each solution is engineered to suit the specific lifting application.
What industries use bespoke lifting beams?
Bespoke lifting beams are widely used in construction, infrastructure, manufacturing, heavy engineering, utilities and process industries. Custom fabrication ensures safe handling of complex loads across demanding industrial environments.
