Under-running Overhead Crane for Low Headroom Applications

 

Benefits of Under-running cranes:

• Under-running bridge crane manufacturer are ideal for applications requiring overhead lift in a factory with low headroom or limited factory space.
• Top-running cranes are designed to lift massive loads, while under-running cranes provide an ergonomic design that offers flexibility, versatility and usability.
• An under-hung crane system is generally much lighter than a top-running system, and a long under-running system can easily operate using multiple runways—even in very wide bays.
• This helps to both minimize the depth of the bridge girder and decrease the weight of the operating equipment, resulting in lower equipment costs and lighter design requirements for the building or support structure.

Under running overhead cranes come in two options:

Single Girder

• Providing you excellent value for your application, single girder designs allow you to be cost effective without compromising performance.
• You will save on new support structures as it has reduced wheel loads. This allows you to add more lifting capabilities to your runway structure without upgrading.

Double Girder

• Designed for applications with load capacities typically over 25 tons, double girder cranes are used when you need a complete lifting solution.
• Double girder cranes give a better height of lift compared to a single girder crane as the hook travels between the beams.

If you’re concerned about low headroom, too much weight on your support structure, or maximizing your lift distance, an under-running bridge crane may be the perfect solution for your needs.
