Workstation Cranes: Creating a Safer, More Productive Environment

28 Mar, 2022
For more than 30 years, Dongqi Cranes have provided effective material handling solutions for maintenance, machining, manufacturing, and more. Our workstation crane systems will effectively increase the productive to reduce manual labor requirements. 

Freestanding Crane System Design:

  • A typical freestanding crane system is 2-3 ton capacity or less for the individual bridges and consists of columns and runway.
  • Prefabricated columns and support the c-channel style runways. Runways can be extend for many hundreds of feet with additional columns and headers spaced along the length.  
  • Hoists are hook suspended from the manual/motorized trolleys. The trolleys fit most hook-mounted electric chain hoists and others. DQ group even sells their own hoist that makes single sourcing and delivery a little more simple.

Light Workstation Crane Systems Service:

  • Dongqi light duty workstation crane systems are flexible by design and install. We have developed an excellent pre-engineered family of crane kits that combine bridges, runways, trolleys, and suspension systems for both ceiling hung and freestanding supports.
  • Once installed, these flexible cranes can be lengthened easily and additional cranes added as well.  When your needs change, they can be easily relocated and reconfigured to fit the new workstation needs at your facility.

Key Features of Freestanding Workstation Cranes:

  • Enclosed track. You can erect the work station bridge crane anywhere on the facility floor. It provides for easy movement of the heavy load along the moving surface.
  • Ease of movement. This kind of assembly allows for the easier movement of bridge and trolleys, and there is no debris buildup along the track. Consistent, easy movement ensures the longevity of trolley wheels. Which means less maintenance, less possible repairs, and less downtime.
  • Superior load positioning. When the bridge moves along the enclosed track, there is no unexpected shifting, such as swaying, shimmying, or crabwalking. The load is transported efficiently from point to point because every part of the frame is assembled to ensure superior load distribution.
  • Flexible precision. With a sturdy design, workers can count on the precise location of the load as they perform their tasks. As your product requirements change, the work station can be moved to accommodate your workers’ needs on the assembly line.
