Electronic overhead cranes are as the name suggests, cranes that work on electrical energy. Cranes are used to lift a heavy weight that is unbearable for human beings. According to EOT crane manufacturers India, most of the business owners do not know about the efficiency and capability of overhead cranes, and that’s why they refrain from using it for their business needs. Even if any company owns an overhead weightlifting tool, they might not be using them correctly. When we don’t make use of any machine properly, we are prevented from the maximum benefits.

Overhead cranes are as you can see, extremely huge machines. Do you feel frightened about the heavy look? Well, you must not, because the engine has been developed to help you. The substantial body and different design of the tool make the look terrifying, but as a business owner, you need to take it easy. Most of the business owners working in different industries can be benefited from these machines to the extent they don’t even know. Whether the vast body scares you, or the massive amount you have to invest, an overhead crane always returns something extra.

First of all, let’s see what can make you feel intimidating:

• As we discussed earlier, the investment would be huge, and whenever we invest a significant amount, we are worried. You might have a question in your mind that, will the crane pay off such high investment.
• The vast machine is not just a big metal structure. The working of such devices is usually complex, and that’s where the second issues arise. Would it be easy to handle the functions of the EOT cranes?
• The last but not the least one is transportation and maintenance. Everything that you carry wants these two critical functions, and the case is same here too. What type of maintenance and transportation will be required and what is the cost associated with it?

The first answer to all the above questions that might strike in your mind is that you are intentionally or unintentionally underestimating the advantages you might get from the crane. Plus when we look at the risks side, here also you see the small risks from magnified lenses making them huge. The modern machines are more technology driven, and that’s why they are precisely assembled. There are literally no risks related to safety, functionality, and business.

When your above doubts are clear, and you make your mind to get one crane in-house, the next problem that arises is, how to find the right one. Remember, you have to find the right one and not the best one. Before that, understand if you actually need a weight lifting tool in your industry. Checking your needs is the best thing you can do to prevent yourself from making a wrong decision and bring something that doesn’t pay off the amount you have invested. Check out the below points, and if the things mentioned below matches your needs, you are definitely in need of an overhead crane.

• You are in the manufacturing industry.
• The functions and operations happening on the ground level are now scaling fast.
• In the construction area, you need to handle heavy loads.
• You work in one of the heavy load handling industries such as transportation.

If these are your needs, and you are thinking to invest in a weightlifting crane, you need to analyze your decision again. You will get better services by using an electronic overhead crane.

Now, you need to know the jobs that a crane can do for you so that it is easier for you to make the final decision.

• A good quality gantry crane can easily lift 200-250 kg of weight in one go and can work smoothly for years if bought from a reputed manufacturer.
• If you have workers to lift goods in your industry, the crane can speed up the process.
• Since the crane can replace manual labor, your expenses will be decreased because you don’t have to pay wages.
• Efficiency will be increased with the crane, and this will add value to your work.
• There is less risk when machines are lifting the heavyweight.

So, if you feel like buying a crane for your business, give a call to one of the manufacturers and you will get the details.

1. Top Running (T/R) – The crane bridge travels on top of rails mounted on a runway beam supported by either the building columns or columns specifically engineered for the crane.
2. Under Running (U/R) – The crane bridge travels on the bottom flange of the runway beam which is usually supported by the roof structure.
3. Single Girder (S/G) – The crane consists of two end trucks, a single bridge girder and the trolley hoist unit. The trolley runs on the bottom flange of the bridge girder.
4. Double Girder (D/G) – The crane consists of two end trucks, two bridge girders and the trolley hoist unit. The trolley runs on rails on top of the bridge girders.

A variation on these types of overhead crane is Gantry Cranes. These cranes are essentially the same as the regular overhead cranes; however, the bridge girder(s) are connected to “legs” on either side of the span. These “legs” eliminate the supporting runway and column system and connect to end trucks which run on a rail either embedded in, or laid on top of, the floor.

For some applications only a Trolley Hoist is required. For instance, in the case of a monorail system a Trolley Hoist unit similar to the one used on single girder cranes is mounted on a beam which might be used to service an assembly line within the client’s facility. Other clients may have an existing single or double girder bridge crane and may just want to replace the hoisting unit. In most of these situations, capacity permitting, we can provide either a Wire Rope or Chain Hoist.

Another solution which may fit your needs is a Jib Crane. A Jib Crane basically consists of a boom which is supported as a cantilever on a column. A Trolley Hoist travels along the boom which can rotate up to 360 Degrees.
