Columbus McKinnon Engineered Products has supplied three new BETA wire rope winches to the Ems-Nordsee Waterways and Shipping Authority for the Meppen building yard slipway since 2012.

The ATEX K.13 EX series is designed for Zone 1/21 and 2/22 explosive atmospheres, meeting all ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU requirements, and has undergone rigorous testing and certification procedures.

Columbus McKinnon Engineered Products has supplied Pfaff-silberblau BETA-EL4 series wire rope winches and associated wire rope pulley blocks to BF Engineering to enable flexible solar simulation using height-adjustable irradiation of hydrogen-powered car or truck prototypes in a climate chamber.

Columbus McKinnon Corporation (CMCO) has brought together its brands, including Pfaff-silberblau, a brand of the German subsidiary Columbus McKinnon Engineered Products, and Pfaff Verkehrstechnik, on a new global website that has been very well received by customers since going live in mid-December 2021 and has already initiated many projects currently underway due to its optimised web-based interaction.

As part of a modernisation project, the Heinz-Schönfeld lecture hall of the Technical University of Dresden was equipped with a new blackboard adjustment system.

Columbus McKinnon Engineered Products has revised its user-friendly CAD download center "CAD & go" for the configuration of Pfaff-silberblau products and geared the tool even more closely to user requirements. The optimised CAD & go platform, which was launched in April 2021, offers significantly improved performance, new content and even more functions.
