Why choose a Gantry crane in lieu of an overhead bridge crane?
• Your building may not be able to support a runway for a typical crane installation • You may need to move the crane to a new location in the future • They can cost less than an overhead crane depending on length of runway • Effective way to move from inside a building to outside • Typically no need for footings • The gantry crane only needs ASCE rail in lieu of complete runway • We can even do trackless gantries. If you look closely at the picture above the single leg double girder gantry runs right on the floor. No need for ASCE rail! We can help you pick the right overhead bridge crane or gantry crane for your application. We have even taken used overhead bridge cranes and converted them to a gantry crane.
