In early 2017 GIS Swiss Lifting Solutions introduced their new generation of hoists for the entertainment industry. Firstly they released the LP250 and LP500 and they immediately made a huge impact on the industry and became very popular. During the end of of the year they complemented their line up by releasing the all-new LP1000 which replaces the former LCH1000. The company has managed to increase the lifting capacity by up to 60% (giving 1600 kg in FEM 1Bm, ISO M3) compared to the previous model LCH1600 D8.
Like previous models the updated generation offers quiet operation, low self-weight, robust modular construction and the new generation of profile chains.
