In the heart of Morristown, Indiana, a legacy of empowerment and dedication to the local community thrives through the Roger Graham Scholarship. Established to honor the memory of Roger Graham, a cherished member of the CraneWerks family for 18 years, this scholarship serves as a beacon of hope for high school seniors aspiring to pursue careers in trade schools.
A metal finishing plant in central Indiana was the scene of a catastrophic runway failure. When our emergency service technicians arrived, the bridge and spreader bar was hanging precariously over caustic dipping vats. One of the runways had broken loose and fallen. Caustic environments tend to increase the chances of equipment failure. A Runway survey, as part of a regular preventive inspection, could have possibly prevented this failure.
CraneWerks collaborated with Harriman Material Handling to provide Hendrickson, a global leader in commercial transportation solutions, to implement an advanced material handling system that would optimize their production capacity.
Diamond Equipment Inc. hosted the grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony of its new facility in Evansville, Ind. More than 500 family, staff and customers attended the event at 1501 Lynch Rd. on Sept. 22. The event served as a platform to showcase the company’s products, establish new partnerships and reaffirm its commitment to advancements in construction technology.
A national commercial truck dealer within the transportation industry sought CraneWerks’ expertise to design, build, and install an outdoor, manual freestanding monorail complete with a hoist, shelter for the hoist, and epoxy paint which could stand up to the harsh Detroit, Michigan winters. This crane was intended to facilitate the undecking of tractors from semi-trucks at their newly established facility.
Ensuring compliance with OSHA regulations is imperative for any business. Regular overhead crane and hoist inspections not only demonstrate a commitment to safety but also shield against potential fines and penalties. These inspections enhance plant safety by identifying and rectifying potential hazards, reduce equipment breakdowns, minimize downtime, and proactively address minor issues, ultimately saving time and costs in the long term.
A customer in the construction industry required a custom mono-box girder solution to accommodate the required span to meet their specific lifting needs.

When a semi-trailer manufacturer decided to expand their operations and improve their manufacturing process…
A galvanizer came to Electrolift because they had performance, safety, and downtime concerns with their existing hoists. Galvanizing applications are notorious for having issues with the mechanical load brake when there is a constant load on the hook and excessive heat is generated during long lifts causing premature failure. Constant inspections, downtime, contaminants in the oil, safety, and ongoing concerns of hoist failure proved to the galvanizer a new solution was required.
