WORK STATION BRIDGE CRANES One of the most efficient ways to reduce workplace manual handling whilst retaining floor space and layout flexibility is by installing an overhead workstation crane system. Internal Track Work Station Crane systems are a proven method to increase productivity, improve quality and provide a safer work environment. The workstation bridge cranes cover rectangle areas allowing for safe lifting and product handling over a large area – effectively creating a ‘safe work cell’ for users. The ergonomic work zone created by a work station crane has the added advantage of freeing floor space for production. All lifting tasks within the work cell are accessible by the crane. The ease of movement is the same throughout the entire work cell – unlike other crane systems that tend to bind and are more difficult to move when the load is the corner of the work cell or off to the side. These cranes are installed so that the runways are rigid, and do not move laterally or longitudinally. In addition the floating end trucks feature horizontal wheels to prevent binding, the combination of these design features results in unmatched ease of positioning and ease of movement. Workstation Bridge Cranes are designed with a simple focus: to lift loads with minimal effort and maximum efficiency. All components in these systems are engineered to reduce friction and weight. The pre-engineered modular kit design permits easy expansion or relocation. The runway length can be increased by adding runway sections, freestanding support assemblies and additional support assemblies as needed.

Key Features of the Enclosed Track Work Station Crane systems: > > The wheels are tapered to match the 2 o taper of the track and which helps centre the trolley for reduced rolling resistance and wheel wear. > > Enclosed track design virtually eliminates dirt and dust from the rolling surface. > > The smooth running surface reduces rolling resistance. > > The Low Profile of the steel track allows installation where headroom is limited > > Long spans translate into fewer runway support points, less interference of work cell layout, longer bridge lengths and free standing capabilities. > > Five weight capacities (125kg, 250kg, 500kg, 1000kg & 2000kg) enable bridge weights and cost to be kept to a minimum. > > Unique Dura Comp 4 wheel’s that outperform steel wheels in endurance and lower rolling resistance.
