Overhead Cranes

Vigo Machine Bridge Cranes

Often referred to as “Bridge Cranes,” Overhead Cranes are widely used in industry. Cranes typically have a set of runways which the bridge will move on for linear travel; when combined with a moving hoist/trolley, this creates 3 motions (Bridge & Gantry). Other types use a fixed member to travel on creating 2 motions (Monorail) or an addition of radial movement (Jib). Applications for using an overhead crane can vary, commonly found in manufacturing where repeated transporting of heavy products, materials or equipment is needed across working areas. In some circumstances it is beneficial to offset the cost of rental equipment by installing an overhead crane.
