Ceiling Mounted Bridge Crane

The ceiling mounted bridge crane is the perfect solution for maximizing vertical space in warehouses, factories, and other industrial environments. By utilizing the existing ceiling structure, this crane allows for efficient and safe material handling without requiring floor-mounted supports, making it ideal for areas where space is limited. With its high lifting capacity and customizable design, the ceiling mounted bridge crane helps you optimize operations while maintaining a clean, organized work environment.

This crane is equipped with advanced technology for smooth, precise movements and is available in both single and double girder configurations. Whether you need to lift heavy materials across large spans or handle lighter loads in confined spaces, our ceiling mounted bridge cranes offer the versatility and reliability your operation demands.

Main Components

  • Runway Tracks: Positioned overhead or supported by vertical columns to guide the crane’s movement.

  • Bridge Beam: Moves horizontally along the runway, providing support for the hoist and ensuring precise lifting.

  • End Trucks: Located at both ends of the bridge, these guide and allow the crane to travel smoothly along the runway.

  • Hoist: Typically an electric chain hoist used for raising and lowering materials with precision.

  • Trolley: A moving component that carries the hoist along the length of the bridge beam for efficient material handling.

  • Control System: Operated via pendant control or a remote control, offering ease of use for crane operators.

  • Power Supply System: Includes a cable festoon or conductor bar for reliable power transmission to the hoist and crane systems.
