Bag Support Frameworks
Upper and lower frameworks
combine to safely support and
contain the bulk bag. The framework
should be configured so that the
operator never stands directly under
the bag during all phases of lifting,
positioning and discharging the bag.

Dedicated Hoist Bag Support Framework: The Unique A-frame
design has a capacity of 4000 lbs. and is engineered to exceed the ANSI and
ASME specifications for under hung cranes and monorail systems. Various
hoist and trolley options are available for ease of positioning the bag into the
frame.
The unique upper frame’s design utilizes a continuously welded 8” I- beam to support
the dedicated hoist and trolley. The structural integrity of the design provides less than
.070” deflection at the end of the I-beam when fully loaded with a 4000 lb. bulk bag.
