Description
Ceiling Mounted Workstation Bridge Crane Overview
Ceiling Mounted Workstation Bridge Crane is an overhead lifting system installed directly on the ceiling structure. It uses strong slings to lift loads and operates through an electric motor or hydraulic system for lifting and horizontal movement. Since it does not occupy floor space, it is suitable for factory workshops, warehouses and production areas with limited ground space.
This crane system offers high space utilization and flexible operation. It can be customized according to specific workshop layouts, lifting requirements and production processes. The ceiling mounted structure is especially useful for tight spaces, complex layouts and workstations where floor-mounted columns are not suitable.
According to different working conditions, the Ceiling Mounted Workstation Bridge Crane can be designed as a single girder, double girder, telescopic beam or aluminum type. Rigid and flexible crane structures can also be selected according to positioning accuracy, track layout and operating requirements.
Main Types of Ceiling Mounted Workstation Bridge Crane
Single Girder Ceiling Mounted Workstation Bridge Crane: The single girder type is assembled using standard straight-track sections and auxiliary standard components. The end trucks of the main girder run on two parallel KBK suspension rails that are perpendicular to the main girder. This system is typically used with a chain hoist, and the trolley travels along the direction of the main girder. It is suitable for planar material handling in workshops and warehouses.
Double Girder Ceiling Mounted Workstation Bridge Crane: The double girder type is designed for handling heavier loads and larger spans. The hoist is positioned between the profiles of the two main girders, helping maximize available lifting height. This structure enhances system rigidity and operational stability, making it suitable for medium to large span areas and heavier material handling applications.
Telescopic Beam Ceiling Mounted Workstation Bridge Crane: The telescopic beam type is equipped with an extendable beam installed between or beneath the main girders. Depending on the design, the telescopic beam can extend beyond the crane runway on one or both sides. This configuration allows the crane to lift and position loads in hard-to-reach areas, such as spaces between structural columns or areas around pipes and ducts.
Aluminum Ceiling Mounted Workstation Bridge Crane: The aluminum type uses an aluminum alloy track system, offering lightweight structure, smooth manual travel and low friction resistance. It has good corrosion resistance and can be suitable for humid, clean or lightweight working environments. The aluminum system is also easy to disassemble and assemble according to the reference information.
