There was a time when the rate of accident occurrence in factories were very high due to the lifting of heavy weight items. However, in the past few decades, technology has really improved the operations of all industries and there’re a lot of safety types of equipment that have been installed. One of them is the overhead crane. Industrial overhead crane has been like a hot cake in the market. This is one of the basic equipment that every factory should have and with the increasing number of new factories, the item has really been on demand. However, the same way the demand is high is the same way the number of counterfeit products is high in the market. Therefore, to get high-quality and reliable equipment you must choose a manufacturer that has experience in that industry. Our company has years of experience in designing and producing industrial devices, such as overhead crane, gantry crane, marine winch, construction winch, travel lift, steel structure, flat transfer cart, and smart car parking system. We are a globally recognized company that uses a high-level of technology to produce the best.
What’s an Industrial overhead crane?
This is a kind of overhead crane equipment that is used in most of the industries to lift and move over-sized and heavy items. Its capacity is larger than the other handling machines. Well, what’s an Overhead crane? This is one of the major equipment used for lifting and transporting material in a factory, warehouse, and workshop. It has a single girder type and double girder type. An overhead crane travels on the rail of the building or supporting structure. Another equipment similar to it is the Gantry crane. Gantry crane has two supporting legs and can be used for indoor/outdoor lifting and transporting work.
The industrial overhead crane can be used for both indoor and outdoor occasions, in the factory, workshop, steel melting industry, power plant as well as in the cement plant. However, with some configurations from our team of professionals, the industrial overhead can be customized to meet different working needs. The industrial overhead crane can be characterized by site utilization, large operation range, versatility, and wide adaptability.

Since this crane is used to carry heavy loads,routine inspection and maintainance should be done to ensure smooth operations and safety. Some of the initial inspections are:
. Hoisting and lowering
. Locking and safety protections
. Crane traveling
Other equipment that you may require in your factory/plant include:
The marine winch which would be very suitable if your factory is located near a water body like a port. It’s mainly used on a boat, shore, a port for anchoring, fixing, mooring or towing winch. Another equipment is the construction winch which can be applied in pulling or lifting materials in an industrial site, factory, warehouse, or in a mine. Lastly, is the travel lift that is used for lifting the boat from the water, putting the boat into the water, transporting the boat on land, or for maintenance work.
Do you have some construction projects that you are undertaking? The type of building material that you use will determine the foundation of that building. Steel structure is a kind of light material that’s used for building a factory or a warehouse, and it makes the building process simple, fast and safe. It’s good also to have a flat transfer cart in your factory to help in transporting steel plate or other material. Does your employees struggle to get a parking space? Consider having a smart car parking system to save much land area and parking time.
