A free standing bridge crane does not put stress on the overhead structure of the building. Installation is typically very straightforward. In addition, these cranes are easy to relocate should the need arise sometime in the future.
Increased Mobility
A free standing bridge crane is the ideal solution is any situation where installing an overhead crane is not practical or otherwise too difficult a task. The runways on this type of system are typically installed without footers above the floor. Therefore, it works incredibly well in buildings that feature pre-cast concrete.
All of the connections are bolted as opposed to welded. This makes it easy to dismantle and move the bridge crane to a different location. Such mobility is a great advantage when you need to relocate operations to a new area of your building or to a new building entirely.
With a free standing bridge crane, you have the advantage of a low headroom design. This will provide you with maximum lift when headroom is crucial. This type of bridge crane provides a number of cost efficient, highly effective moving and lifting solutions. It is especially beneficial in situations where overhead crane coverage for a large area with unconstrained length is required. Interconnected parallel systems will make it possible to cover the entire building.
Outstanding Ergonomics
A free standing bridge crane provides the ideal ergonomic solution for providing complete access of movement and outspreading lifting coverage. This type of crane has been proven to increase quality, improve productivity and increase safety in the workplace.
These cranes are becoming more and more popular across a wide range of industries. The reason for this is that a free standing bridge crane offers an effective solution to problems with handling materials and improving performance.
This crane can move a load as much a three times easier than a conventional I-beam crane. Because loads move much easier, the damage that occurs during the manufacturing process is practically eliminated.
With a free standing bridge crane physical strength becomes a considerably smaller issue in the workplace. Therefore, the work force can be utilized in a much more effective manner.
These cranes can take the place of multiple cranes in one simple system, which provides improved productivity and efficiency. A large number of companies have already replaced manipulators with these cranes in order to cover the entire machining center and eliminate the need for load transfers.
