General purpose overhead crane
Low-Headroom Single Girder Crane
Product Overview
The Low-Headroom Single Girder Overhead Crane is an innovative lifting solution specifically engineered for facilities with limited vertical clearance. By utilizing a specially designed low-headroom electric hoist that runs on the side of the main girder, this crane significantly increases the effective lifting height compared to standard models. It comprises a single main beam, two end carriages, and the ultra-compact hoist, all operating along an elevated runway. This design is the perfect choice for modern workshops, warehouses, and production facilities where maximizing lifting height is critical to operational efficiency.
Product Advantages
- Maximum Vertical Lift: The specialized low-headroom hoist design can increase lifting height by 200–500mm or more versus conventional cranes, allowing you to fully utilize your facility’s vertical space and handle taller loads.
- Optimal Space Utilization: Keeps the factory floor completely clear for production, storage, and movement, while the compact design reduces the overall crane profile, making it ideal for crowded or height-restricted environments.
- Cost-Effective Construction: The increased lifting height may allow for lower overall building height in new constructions, saving significant costs on materials and construction while still achieving the required hook height.
- Flexible and Safe Control: Comes standard with a wireless remote control, giving the operator a clear line of sight and the freedom to manage loads from the safest and most efficient position.
- Fully Customizable: Each crane is engineered to order. We tailor the capacity, span, lifting height, and control features (including VFD for smooth, precise handling) to integrate seamlessly into your workspace.
Application Scenarios
- Low-Ceiling Workshops & Garages: Ideal for lifting engines, chassis, and other heavy components in buildings where conventional cranes cannot provide adequate lifting height.
- Warehouses with Mezzanines: Perfect for lifting goods to and from elevated storage levels or in areas with restricted overhead clearance due to ductwork or piping.
- Manufacturing Plants: Enables efficient handling of materials and products in production facilities with low roofs, maximizing operational capability without costly building modifications.
- Basement or Underground Facilities: Provides a powerful lifting solution for below-ground-level operations where every inch of headroom counts.
- Assembly & Fabrication Shops: Allows for the safe and efficient movement of large assemblies and fabricated parts in height-constrained environments.
