Ceiling-Mounted Runway
Types of Runways
CraneWerks’ underhung ceiling-mounted runways feature overhead crane runways that attach directly to the ceiling or roof structure of a building. Ceiling-mounted workstation bridge cranes are directly bolted to the ceiling frame, trusses or hung from CraneWerks suspension rods or tube brackets. Custom support brackets are available for sloped and pitched ceilings. The traveling bridge of the underhung bridge crane is suspended under the runway track system.

Ceiling-mounted underhung systems are extremely versatile and can be used to easily transfer loads from one bay to another with the use of transfer switches. Transfer switches also allow you to move loads via monorails to other work cells. In areas where hoisting is critical, transfer switches allow the hoist to be parked on hospital spurs for routine maintenance and a spare hoist waiting in the wing for emergency situations.
