What are they?
Columbus Mckinnon (Yale) worked with Airbus, the worlds largest aircraft manufacturer who were looking for a solution to safely stabilise aircraft engines which allows engineers to maintain and build said engines. While working closely with aerospace engineers they came to modify their already popular Yale 360 chain hoist to suit aircraft bootstrap kits.
Aerospace hoists - an industry necessity:
The aerospace industry now has a unified product line that will suit the bootstrap kit, no more spending hours working with procurement companies comparing dimensions, product reliability and suitability. If it's good enough for Airbus, it's good enough for all other aerospace engineers.
Why can't I just use a normal manual chain hoist?
"Aerospace hoists cost money because they save money"
Theoretically, you could use a normal hoist. However, why would you use a £100 hoist that's not foolproof & specific to lifting a multi-million pound engine? It just doesn't make sense. Yale's hoists have been specially redisgned to do one thing and one thing only. Tried and tested by world-leading aeronautical engineers, these hoists are built for correct application which demand for precision, reliability and where mistakes are not an option.
