4 Ton Overhead Crane

Our 4 ton overhead crane is engineered to deliver dependable lifting performance for industrial operations. Built with a robust girder and high-strength components, it ensures safe and precise handling of heavy loads up to 4 tons. Equipped with options for single or double girder configurations, wire rope or chain hoists, and versatile control systems including pendant or wireless remote control, this crane adapts to a wide range of production environments. Its flexible design allows installation in factories, warehouses, shipyards, and maintenance facilities, making it an ideal solution for boosting efficiency while maintaining workplace safety.

Main Components

  • Wire Rope Hoist: The primary lifting mechanism, utilizing a drum to wind and unwind the wire rope for vertical motion.

  • Lifting Rope: Standard synthetic rope, with an option for high-strength steel wire rope to handle heavy-duty loads.

  • Trolley: Supports the hoist and moves horizontally along the crane’s girder, compatible with both single and double girder setups.

  • Main Girder: The main horizontal beam supporting the trolley and hoist, available in profile or box girder configurations.

  • End Carriages: Encases the wheels that enable the crane to travel smoothly along the rails.

  • Hooks: Constructed according to DIN 15401 standards to ensure safe and secure lifting.

  • Control System: Can be operated using a pendant controller, remote control, or integrated smart control features.

  • Electrical System: Powers all crane operations and includes motors, wiring, and optional advanced functions such as hook centering and obstacle avoidance.
