Modulift
Launches Off-the-Shelf
Adjustable Lifting / Spreader Beam
with Next Day Delivery
Modulift has launched a combined lifting and spreader beam utilising a clamp
system that provides a safe, fast and adjustable beam, enabling users to lift from
multiple points top and bottom.
he Adjustable Lifting /
Spreader Beam (or MOD
CLS) is stocked as a boxed
product for immediate
shipping and eliminates
delays incurred waiting for alternative
solutions, which often have to be
manufactured to order.

The specialist manufacturer
conceptualised the MOD CLS in response
to demand from sectors where light
industrial lifting scenarios inside or outside
factory environments are commonplace.
The fully adaptable system particularly
lends itself to applications where flexibility
and speed is key to productivity.
Sarah Spivey, managing director at
Modulift, said: “The MOD CLS is game-
changing from a lead-time perspective as

users no longer have to wait for beams to
be built. The launch is yet another example
of Modulift responding to industry
demand and providing distributors with
a revolutionary, off-the-shelf, below-the-
hook solution.”
The beam is being introduced in one
size of up to 8.5t capacity, depending on
configuration, but offered with four clamps
as standard to adjust the lifting points to
enable flexibility between a single top
lifting point (lifting beam) or double top
lifting points (spreader beam).
The clamps are pre-assembled on the
beam together with markers to show
alignment and the centre of lift. Clamps on
the upper / top side of the beam are of a
larger rating and size than the two clamps
fitted to the bottom / underside of the
beam. The MOD CLS can also be adapted
to suit with up to an additional four clamps
on the bottom side of the beam allowing
users the flexibility of additional lifting
points. If more points are needed, the
flexible system can also be designed as a
H-Frame, providing infinite lifting points.

Ian Locke, senior design engineer at
Modulift, said: “Despite a host of individual
component features, the product stands
out as an entire lifting system, not just a
spreader, lifting beam or clamp. This is
where we differentiate ourselves from
existing products in the marketplace.
Rather than releasing the clamp design on
its own, we set out to create a complete
below-the-hook solution.”
