Runway Crane Systems for Safe and Efficient Lifting

Safety

Runway crane systems work are compatible with a variety of cranes and utilize an overhead runway to haul material from end of the shop to another. CraneWerks carry a variety of runway systems that can handle heavy loads and can also accommodate more than one overhead crane for maximum efficiency. These types of runway systems are great in utilizing the space your shop has to offer.

Runway Cranes to Meet a Variety of Lifting or Hauling Applications

Bridge cranes, overhead traveling cranes as well as overhead cranes utilize crane runway systems in order to hoist and transport heavy materials. The main component of an overhead traveling crane runway system is a top running bridge crane, that is either single or double girder, designed with the bridge on top of the runway.

This system is best used for a shop or warehouse where maximum use of overhead space is needed. A system like this also works well in an area where the floor lacks obstructions and debris. This type of system requires strong support and strength for this equipment to work safely and properly for peak performance and productivity. Our experts can assess your building and determine whether or not your building has the strength to accommodate this type of system.

Benefits of Runway Crane Systems

These systems are cost effective to install when done by our experts because we are able to cut down on steel costs to build the system by installing and attaching the runway and support columns directly to the existing building’s structure. By building the system into the existing structure, it eliminates the need for some of the steel that is commonly used when producing an overhead crane system.

In addition to being cost effective, a runway crane system is also versatile in how it can accommodate hand geared, push/pull, as well as motorize single girder and  double girder bridge cranes. By being able to handle two separate cranes at a time, this allows the operator to move two different types of loads simultaneously.

This allows your shop to lift double the heavy loads and allows you to increase productivity and movement of goods within the shop. We also offer additions such as load monitoring to ensure your system operates to its full potential, with safety in mind.
