Shop Bridge Crane

A shop bridge crane is an essential lifting tool designed to streamline material handling processes in workshop environments. Offering superior performance and versatility, these cranes provide an efficient way to lift and transport heavy loads across a workspace. At Yonghao Crane Co., Ltd., we specialize in designing and manufacturing high-quality shop bridge cranes that deliver maximum productivity and reliability. Whether you need a crane for small workshop spaces or large industrial operations, our shop bridge cranes are engineered to meet your specific needs.

Main Components

  • Wire Rope Hoist: The central lifting unit that uses a drum to wind and unwind the wire rope for vertical movement.

  • Lifting Rope: Standard synthetic rope with optional high-strength steel wire rope for heavy-duty lifting.

  • Trolley: Carries the hoist and moves horizontally along the crane’s girder (available in single or double girder form).

  • Main Girder: The horizontal beam that supports the trolley and hoist; available in profile or box girder designs.

  • End Carriages: House the wheels that allow the crane to travel along the rails.

  • Hooks: Made according to DIN 15401 standard for secure lifting.

  • Control System: Operated via pendant control, remote control, or integrated smart features.

  • Electrical System: Includes motors, wiring, and optional smart functions like hook centering and obstacle prevention.
