04 What happens during a power failure on the hoist?
The hoist is equipped with an Emergency Auto Rescue Device (EARD) that activates automatically during a power outage. Both cages descend safely to ground level using gravity-assisted, VFD-controlled braking — no operator intervention required. Doors open automatically for immediate evacuation. This ensures zero trapped workers during electrical failures, even at maximum height with full loads.
05 What is the warranty on the TCLIFT construction hoist?
The TCLIFT MMH650-2T46 comes with a 3-year warranty on major components (1-year standard + 2-year extended). Terms and conditions apply. This is described as an industry-leading warranty for total peace of mind.
06 Why does the TCLIFT hoist use a Busbar power supply system?
For hoists exceeding 60 meters, TCLift uses a Busbar power supply instead of hanging cables because:
  • Eliminates hanging cables, loops, twisting, and wind-induced movement
  • Reduces cable-related failures and maintenance costs
  • Remains stable and efficient at heights beyond 60 meters
  • Allows faster mast extension without replacing long power cables
  • Provides cleaner installation and consistent power supply
07 Does the hoist have surveillance/monitoring inside the cage?
Yes. The hoist includes:
  • In-cage CCTV: Live activity tracking for discipline and safety monitoring
  • Recording: 10–15-day loop of stored footage for audits and incident analysis
  • AI-Enabled 360° Fish-Eye Camera: AI-powered people counting, detects humans inside cage, restricts goods-only use, and enforces occupancy limits
08 Can the hoist be extended as the building grows taller?
Yes. The hoist comes with a standard supply height of 60 meters for quick initial installation, but is designed to be extended as the building grows up to the maximum height of 243 meters. Additional mast sections can be added without replacing the power supply, thanks to the Busbar system.

TCLIFT TL195-12 Hydraulic Luffing Tower Crane

7 Questions
01 What is the TCLIFT TL195-12 Hydraulic Luffing Tower Crane?
The TCLIFT TL195-12 is a Hydraulic Luffing Tower Crane featuring a variable-angle luffing jib that can raise almost vertically. It uses hydraulic cylinders (instead of traditional wire rope winches) for boom angle control. Available with jib options of 30m, 35m, 40m, 45m, 50m, and 55m, it is built on an L69 mast type and powered by a 380V ±5%/50Hz supply.
02 What is a "luffing jib" crane and why is it better for urban projects?
A luffing jib crane can raise its arm (jib) to a near-vertical position instead of maintaining a fixed horizontal boom. This dramatically reduces the working radius and oversailing beyond the site boundary, making it ideal for:
  • Congested city construction projects
  • Sites near neighboring buildings, roads, airports, or power lines
  • High-rise and skyscraper construction
  • Projects where multiple cranes must operate in close proximity
03 Why hydraulic luffing instead of the traditional wire rope system?
Hydraulic luffing offers significant advantages over traditional wire rope systems:
  • Safety: Boom is held securely by hydraulic lock valves even during power failure; no risk of luffing rope snapping
  • Reliability: No luffing rope to replace or equalize; fewer high-speed rotating components
  • Operation: Smoother, quieter boom control; less operator fatigue; better precision near buildings
  • Maintenance: Longer service intervals; simpler installation with less rope reeving
04 Can multiple luffing cranes operate on the same project site?
Yes — this is actually one of the key advantages. Luffing cranes can park their jibs steeply upward, unlike flat-top cranes which require large anti-collision buffer zones due to fixed horizontal booms. This means more cranes can safely operate in the same project, improving coordination and productivity in mega projects.
05 How does the luffing crane perform in high wind conditions?
When parked, the luffing jib angle becomes steep, which significantly reduces the wind-exposed surface area of the crane. This results in lower wind load on the crane structure, safer operation during storms, and reduced out-of-service wind stress compared to horizontal fixed jibs.
06 What are the available jib lengths for the TL195-12?
The TCLIFT TL195-12 is available with the following jib length options: 30m, 35m, 40m, 45m, 50m, and 55m. The choice of jib length depends on the project's site layout, load requirements, and working radius constraints.
07 What are the power requirements for the TL195-12 crane?
The TCLIFT TL195-12 requires a 380V ±5% / 50Hz three-phase power supply. The luffing mechanism is powered by a 45 kW system, and the crane comes with a rope length of 450 meters.

A smart display interface provides real-time operational feedback across all modes.
04 How does the floor call system work on the hoist?
A stainless-steel call station is installed at every floor level. Each station features an LCD display with up/down controls and multi-port communication connectors (Left Door, Comm Line In, Comm Line Out, Right Door), enabling a fully networked floor-to-floor hoist management system throughout the entire building height.
05 What is the ECRS and how does it work?
The Emergency Communication & Rescue System (ECRS) is a dedicated SOS system. In an emergency, press and hold the SOS button for 3 seconds — the ECRS instantly dials up to five pre-set contacts in sequence until someone responds. This ensures no missed calls and provides fast, reliable rescue connection when every second matters.
06 What certifications do TCLift safety systems carry?
The Anti-Fall Device (SRIBS — Model SAJ 40-1.4B) is CE Certified and complies with GB/T 34025:2017 standard. The overall hoist and crane equipment are engineered to meet international safety standards, and TCLift holds credentials (certifications) that can be viewed on the Credential section of the website.
