Invention of the hoist by Archimedes
Post By: Traction Levage

History of lifting #1

During antiquity, Archimedes designed many inventions to allow man to lift ever more voluminous loads for the construction of infrastructures and houses. The hoist is one of his inventions.

Consisting of pulleys and ropes, the hoist is used to lift heavy loads with less effort.

At Traction Levage, we offer a wide range of high-performance, high-quality hoists to further Archimède’s goal: Facilitate your lifting operations and improve your efficiency.
