Features and Benefits

Mid-Range Load Capacity
Ideal for medium-duty applications requiring longer spans and heavier lifting without compromising structural integrity
Lightweight Aluminum Construction
Easier to install and maintain than traditional steel systems, while reducing the load on building structures
Enclosed Track Design
Protects internal components from dust and debris. Ensures smooth, quiet operation and reduces maintenance needs, especially in high-cycle environments
Modular Compatibility
Fully compatible with ETA-4 components, including trolleys, hangers, and festoon systems. Simplifies upgrades and expansions, offering flexibility for evolving facility layouts
Ergonomic and Economical
Engineered for low push/pull force and efficient material handling. Enhances operator comfort and productivity while lowering operational costs

Dielectrically Insulated Load Trolleys Trolleys can be equipped with dielectric insulation. Enhances safety in electrically sensitive environments or where grounding isolation is required
Festoon Trolley Systems Optional festoon kits for managing air or electric cables. Keeps cables organized and protected, reducing wear and improving system reliability
Switch Bracket and By-Pass Assemblies Enables routing of trolleys between different rail paths. Adds flexibility to complex systems by allowing load transfer between multiple workstations
Drop Angle Kits and Floor Support Options Optional mounting kits for non-ceiling installations. Allows the ETA-5 system to be installed in facilities without suitable ceiling structures

FAQs

What is the maximum load capacity of the ETA-5 rail?

The ETA-5 supports greater rated loads between hanging centers than the ETA-4, making it suitable for medium-duty applications. Load charts are available to help determine safe configurations based on span and mounting.

Is the ETA-5 compatible with ETA-4 components?

Yes, the ETA-5 is designed to be fully compatible with ETA-4 components, including trolleys, hangers, festoon systems, and end trucks. This allows for easy upgrades or system expansions.

Can the ETA-5 be installed in facilities without ceiling support?

Yes, optional floor support kits and drop angle kits are available, allowing the ETA-5 to be installed in environments where ceiling mounting is not feasible.

What optional accessories are available for the ETA-5 system?

Optional features include festoon trolleys, dielectrically insulated load trolleys, switch bracket assemblies, and by-pass assemblies for complex rail layouts.

What is the maximum rail length available for the ETA-5?

The ETA-5 rail is available in lengths up to 42 feet, and can be spliced for longer runs using standard splice kits.
