Description

The Donati DMK Series Low Headroom Electric Chain Hoist is purpose-designed for lifting applications where space constraints and maximum hook height are critical. Featuring a compact chain return system mounted directly on the trolley, this variant allows operators to achieve the maximum possible lifting height while maintaining smooth, precise movement along the beam.

Built with Grade 8 alloy steel components and the proven DMK self-braking conical motor, this low headroom model combines strength, safety, and superior design efficiency. The trolley-mounted chain return system minimizes headroom loss, making it ideal for facilities with restricted lifting spaces such as workshops, maintenance areas, and industrial production lines.

All Donati DMK chain hoists are designed to meet international FEM/ISO standards, providing long-term reliability, high safety margins, and low maintenance costs. The electrostatically applied, water-repellent paint finish ensures durability even in harsh environments.

The DMK range includes four base models (Donati DMK 1–4), supporting capacities from 100 kg to 4,000 kg, with service classifications 1Bm (M3), 1Am (M4), and 2m (M5).
Available in single or dual lifting speeds, 1-fall or 2-fall chain configurations, and standard lifting heights up to 12 m (longer lifts available on request).
