Overhead and overhead lifting
Suspended lifting: the lifted load is held by a hook or gripping tool suspended from a cable or equipment. The load's center of gravity is vertically aligned with the suspension point on the hoist's rigid equipment.
Note :the dynamic effects of handling subject the load to parasitic movements of rocking in relation to its suspension point, or of rotation around the vertical axis passing through its suspension point.
Mounted lifting: the load rests on one or more supports (stan-dards or special supports). It is held rigidly and in a fixed orientation relative to the lifting equipment on forks, a platform... Relative movements of the equipment, of limited amplitude, can slightly modify this orientation. The load is...

Regulations. Standardization
The regulations and standards of the countries for which the lifting equipment is intended must be complied with. In this section, we will focus only on those that apply to machines intended for use within the European Community (EC). However, many EN standards (European standards) are in line with ISO standards and are suitable for use in many countries outside the EC. Naturally, you'll need to make sure...
