Lifting System

December 26th, 2009

My boss said we needed a new overhead lifting system, so I started looking for an overhead crane for sale. First I considered an overhead traveling bridge crane that needs an elevated runway installed along the length of a factory. The hooks can be positioned with pinpoint accuracy so the loads can be gently lifted into position. Next I looked at the gantry crane which runs on a track at floor level instead of being elevated. The last one was a jib crane with a rotating head assembly that carries a hoist and trolley, and it can be motorized. I gave the specs and price list to the boss so he could make the final decision.
