CanXio Lasthaken mit Schäkel im Einsatz

Next Generation Rigging Safety

CanXio is a new type of load hook for professional rigging applications in the event and entertainment industry. Its one-hand operation simplifies rigging, reduces the number of critical steps at height and minimises the typical risks of classic basket combinations.

The result: more safety, shorter set-up times
and a significantly more efficient workflow.

The Principle

One motion instead of many

The classic process and how CanXio replaces it.

CanXio Lasthaken
The Problem

Many steps, loose parts, higher risk of error

Secure the load, open the basket, insert the round sling, close the bolt. Usually several metres up, under time pressure, on a moving platform. Loose parts can drop.

The Solution

One hand. No loose parts.

CanXio opens with one hand and closes automatically, even with work gloves. No loose parts, fewer sources of error, higher process safety.

Cuts critical time at height by up to 80%.

Benefits

Safer. Faster. More efficient.

CanXio replaces complex multi-part solutions with an intelligent, integrated rigging device with one-hand operation. The hook opens with just one hand and closes automatically. That makes the assembly process significantly safer, simpler and faster.

The benefits at a glance

One-hand operation for safe rigging at height
No loss of individual components
Significantly reduced set-up times
Less physical and cognitive strain
Greater safety for riggers and everyone in the work area
Compatible with common rigging equipment
Up to 80% less critical time at height
Optional securing with a safety pin

A closer look

CanXio was developed specifically for the real working conditions of the event industry. Its innovative design significantly reduces the typical hazards of classic basket rigging.

  • Controlled one-hand operation: CanXio opens quickly and precisely with one hand and closes automatically
  • No loose parts, which minimises the risk of parts dropping
  • Intuitive use for fewer errors when attaching loads and higher process safety
  • Optional additional locking of the latch
  • No catch edge at the hook tip
  • Clear marking for full traceability, proof of ownership and inspection records

Especially on complex builds under time pressure, CanXio sets a new safety standard in everyday rigging.

Time is one of the most critical factors in event technology. CanXio significantly reduces assembly effort and handling complexity.

  • Faster and easier assembly
  • Fewer individual parts
  • Less checking and re-securing effort
  • Simplified workflows
  • Shorter time at height
  • Faster repeat set-ups for standard configurations

For technical service providers, touring productions and rental companies this means faster project turnaround, higher productivity and more efficient crew planning.

Complex rigging assemblies increase the risk of operating errors, especially under stress and time pressure. CanXio is consistently designed for simple, unambiguous handling.

  • Fewer error-prone steps
  • Intuitive assembly process
  • Reduced complexity
  • Less training effort
  • Higher process safety

The integrated design substantially reduces the typical sources of error of classic basket combinations.

Rigging is one of the most physically demanding jobs in the event industry. CanXio noticeably improves working conditions:

  • Less physical effort
  • Simplified handling
  • Safe operation even with gloves
  • Less strenuous overhead work
  • Reduces physical fatigue
  • Lower mental load in critical situations

CanXio thus supports not only safety but also the long-term health and performance of the crew.

Thanks to the reduced number of individual parts and a robust design, CanXio lasts significantly longer than conventional solutions. CanXio is compatible with standard rigging equipment.

  • Lower material consumption
  • Better cost-effectiveness
  • Resource-efficient operation

1 / EYE

The eye

The specially engineered eye allows direct mounting on the bow (omega) of the shackle. Alternatively, the pin of a 3.25 t shackle (pin diameter ≤ 20 mm) can be passed directly through the eye. Its size makes over-sizing the shackle impossible.

FAQ

Frequently asked

CanXio is a new type of load hook with one-hand operation. The special size and shape of its eye, the hole in the latch and the form-fitting hook tip without a catch edge provide clear safety benefits. It replaces the classic basket combination and cuts critical steps at height. Designed in Germany.

Opens with one hand, closes automatically, no loose parts, fewer sources of error. That lowers the risk of dropping parts and raises process safety.

For professional rigging: rigging companies, touring, event technology, rental, exhibition and stage building, venue technology, TV and studio productions.

WLL 2.5 t, grade 8 / performance class 9, breaking force over 98.1 kN. To DIN EN 1677 and ASME B30.10, CE-compliant. Full values in the data sheet.

Yes. CanXio is compatible with common rigging equipment. Existing round slings, steel wire ropes, lifting chains, O-rings, eyes and standard shackles (≤ 3.25 t) can still be used.
