NEW LEEA ACADEMY TRANSFORMS TRAINING FOR OVERHEAD LIFTING EQUIPMENT ENGINEERS
LEEA (Lifting Equipment Engineers Association) has launched a new Learning Management System that will transform the training experience for students preparing for the association’s Diploma qualification for the test and examination of overhead lifting equipment. Providing more rigorous, flexible and engaging professional development, the LEEA Academy encompasses a range of delivery methods, including a new e-learning service that employs the latest 3D modelling and interactive techniques. The comprehensive range of options available also incorporates instructor-led practical training, and ‘blended learning’, which combines e-learning, supported revision and a final examination.
LEEA Academy e-learning can be accessed round-the-clock via PC, Mac, laptop or tablet. An extensive library of high quality, computer generated 3D images of equipment such as hoists and load lifting attachments has been created, making it easy for students to relate their learning to day-to-day working practices. In addition, fully interactive quizzes and revision assignments are used throughout each training course, providing students with immediate feedback on progress and helping to identify any gaps in their knowledge. Students work at their own pace, and benefit from access to a dedicated tutor and technical helpdesk. A new online learning community connects fellow students.
The LEEA Academy will replace the association’s existing online and distance learning courses, whilst complementing and supporting its extensive portfolio of instructor-led practical training. The ‘Part One Entrance Certificate’ course, comprising 28 separate modules, is the first to migrate to the new system. It will be joined by all the remaining courses by March 2016.
Originally established in the late 1950’s, LEEA Diploma examinations are taken by several hundred students every year, worldwide. Only successful candidates, employed by LEEA member companies, are entitled to carry the TEAM Card,
INTRODUCING THE WORLDS FASTEST 3 TONNE AIR HOIST
Red Rooster Industrial UK Ltd, are pleased to introduce their all new 3 Tonne TMH-3000 Air Hoist.
Not only is the TMH-3000 the fastest hoist in the world for it’s class, it also offers the most compact closed headroom of just 537mm. The TMH-3000 model supersedes the TCR-3000 model with a lifting speed of 5.4 m/min, compared to the TCR’s speed of 2.8 m/min, giving the operator a huge increase in productivity. The hoist has a full load capacity at 4 to 6.3 bar and is highly durable with a M4 rating.
With safety being our number one focus, the TMH-3000 comes standard with a mechanical upper and lower limit switch as a positive shut-off, where some hoists rely on less reliable means of limit switch. An overload limiter is built into all Red Rooster Hoists as standard. A safety fixing point has been introduced to the body of the TMH-3000 for assisting installation which is designed to accept a shackle, sling or wire rope. This can also be used as a secondary support for the hoist and is rated to the SWL of the Hoist.

Offering precise variable speed, the TMH-3000 hoist lets the operator have greater control when lifting and lowering the load, with a noise level of only 80dBA. A main air shut off valve is incorporated into the hoist, so you can be assured that when the emergency stop button is pressed the air supply is also cut off from entering the hoist.
The TMH-3000 can also be modified to a 2-Fall TMH-6000, 6 Tonne Air Hoist and made to suit ATEX Zones 1 or 2 upon request. As with all Red Rooster Air Hoists, they can be supplied as Hook Suspension, or as a Hoist & Trolley.
