Electric Gantry Cranes
Powered gantry cranes are typically used for larger, high capacity jobs where operators require less manual intervention. The standard configuration is A-frame type with frames on both sides of the girder. However, for applications that cannot have traffic on one side of the crane, AMETECS can develop single-leg gantry cranes. All powered gantry cranes are fitted with motor drives to ride on V-groove track crane rail or directly on the floor by use of PU wheels. For outdoor and higher rated cranes, double flanged wheels are used.

Heavy duty electrical gantry cranes from AMETECS are designed to provide dependable, durable lifting solutions. Each crane is manufactured in line with all relevant international standards.
  • Gantries can be manufactured according to custom requirements
  • Trackless gantry cranes (with two A-frames) can be used for indoor applications
  • Precision load control by using inverters as standards for heavy duty gantries
  • Indoor applications call for either single-leg top running gantry or single-leg under slung carriage
  • PU castor wheels with indoor gantries
  • Limit switches for all operations
  • Synchronized motors to avoid skewing
  • Outdoor gantries can be fitted with grabs/magnets/other auxiliary handling equipment
  • Crane operation can be fully automated (by integrating with a PLC)
  • Radio remote control instead of the standard pendant controller
