Modernization

Over time, technologies evolve, and operational needs can also change. To remain competitive, modernization is a key element in maintaining high-performance lifting equipment that meets the highest standards.

Modernization

Is your equipment slowing down your operations? Do you need to lift heavier loads? Perhaps your maintenance costs are too high? Whether you want to modernize your facilities, improve their performance or integrate new technologies, we can help you find the solution best suited to your requirements and budget. Thanks to our expertise, you benefit from an efficient and optimized transition.

Frequently asked questions

01.
Can the lifting capacity of an existing overhead crane be increased?

Yes, it’s sometimes possible, but it’s not guaranteed.

Increasing the capacity of an overhead crane involves more than just replacing the hoist. The entire system must be evaluated to ensure that every component can handle the increased load. Here are the main elements to check:

  • Is the main girder designed for the intended load?
  • Are the end trucks (wheels and gear motors) compatible with a higher capacity?
  • Can the runway, rails, and supporting structure withstand the additional stress?

In some cases, a well-planned modification can eliminate the need to purchase a new crane. In others, the costs or risks associated with the upgrade may be too high. An inspection can sometimes help determine whether an upgrade is feasible or if replacement is the better option.

Our recommendation: Before making any decisions, have your system (crane and runway) evaluated by a qualified engineer.
