Light-Duty and Medium-Duty Single Girder Overhead Cranes

As a leading overhead crane manufacturer, we have the capabilities to meet a variety of engineering specifications:

  • 5-ton shop cranes
  • 10-ton single girder top running cranes

Single-girder top-running cranes can handle a maximum load of 25 tons, which is ideal for many manufacturing operations and service applications. The bridge has an average span of 65 feet, but we can adapt precise sizing to the customer’s building needs.

Applications for Single Girder Top Running Cranes

Overhead cranes with a single girder layout provide excellent results for manufacturing operations, CNC machining shops, lumber yards, and production facilities. They also work well in warehouses, automotive repair garages, and industrial workshops.

Benefits of Single Girder Overhead Bridge Cranes for Industrial Applications

Choosing the right bridge crane isn’t about deciding which design “wins.” Instead, the goal is to select the ideal configuration, size, and capacity for application needs. There are many situations where single-girder overhead cranes are the smart choice.

Overhead Mounts

With overhead cranes, end trucks move along the top of runway beams. This configuration provides several advantages compared to under-running girders:

  • Load capacity: Top running cranes are rated for heavier loads.
  • Ease of installation: The installation process requires less time and uses simpler mounting components.
  • Overhead Workspace: With the bridge located above runway beams, work areas have more overhead space and the crane provides increased lift height.
  • Large span: Depending on the rated max load, overhead bridge cranes can accommodate spans of up to 120 feet.
  • Maintenance: There’s no need to suspend the hoist for repairs or maintenance with top-running designs.

Top running cranes are ideal for buildings where maximum movement range and space are important.

Single Girder Cranes

For light- and medium-duty applications, single girder overhead cranes offer important advantages:

  • Lower product cost
  • Lower weight and shipping costs (though we offer local delivery)
  • Faster and easier installation
  • Reduced load on building structures

We also offer double-girder cranes for heavy-duty loads of up to 500 tons.
