Wall-mounted overhead cranes

Wall-mounted cranes

Do you need a lifting system for a restricted space?

Are you looking for an alternative to a standard overhead crane, but lacking floor space? Do you need to perform workstation lifts without using the main overhead crane?

At Premium Industrial Group, we know that choosing the right lifting system can be complex, especially if your layout constraints are specific.

What is a wall-mounted overhead crane?

A wall-mounted crane is a lifting device attached directly to a wall in your building. Unlike conventional overhead cranes, it does not require a self-supporting structure on the floor or ceiling rails.

It allows loads to be moved horizontally on an axis, usually along a single wall, while keeping the floor completely free.

In short, it's the ideal solution for optimizing space without compromising lifting capacity.

Technical specifications

Lifting capacity: up to ~ 10 metric tons

Span: up to ~ 12 meters

Lifting height: up to ~ 20 meters

Hoist type: chain or wire rope

Track: wall-mounted H- or I-beams (3 fixing points required)

Possible configurations :

1. Single girder or double girder
2. Standard or American version
3. Other capacities, spans and lifting heights are available on request.
   
   

What are the advantages of a wall-mounted crane?

1. Space-saving
2. Ideal for the workstation
3. Greater lifting capacity than a jib crane
   
   

What are the disadvantages of a wall-mounted crane?

1. Need for a suitable structure
2. Limited span
3. Higher acquisition cost than a conventional crane or jib crane

Good to know: Loads transferred to walls are significant. A technical analysis by an engineer is required before installation. If your building was not designed to accommodate this type of equipment, a conventional overhead crane may be more suitable.
