Freestanding Bridge Cranes

Free Standing floor supported systems do not put stress on the building’s overhead structure. Installation is usually more straightforward, and these cranes are also easier to relocate in the future. Free Standing Systems require a reinforced concrete floor that’s at least 6 inches thick.

Options

 Plain Steel Track

• Lifting Capacity: 250 – 4000 lbs.
• Used where frequent support points are available or where maximum headroom is required
• The standard cold-rolled steel track offers a low-weight to high-strength ratio

Trussed Steel Track

• Lifting Capacity: 250 – 4000 lbs.
• Permits longer spans
• Longer span enhancement via a built-up truss design

Aluminum Track

• Lifting Capacity: 150 – 2000 lbs.
• Used where lower bridge weight and easier movement are required

Advantages

• Enclosed track cranes are up to three times easier to move than traditional bridge cranes
• The design protects the rolling surface from the build-up of dirt and dust, making the wheels easier to move
• The smooth running surface means lower rolling resistance
• The low profile of the steel track allows the system to be installed where headroom is a problem
