Single Girder Cranes

Single girder cranes - straight forward... and sideways

No environment is the other equal, that’s why we offer the market’s most flexible track, bridge and crane system. For operations on a plain, rectangular work space, the solution is simple – our single girder crane systems.

Structurally tucking away into all four corners of the space, or suspended only from the ceiling, the system allows for unhindered, three-dimensional operation. As great for a single-, as for multiple workstations, the system is the most popular for industrial applications.

The TAWI overhead crane system is an ideal open platform for most flexible material application systems, not only due to operational freedom, but also due to cost efficiency, high quality, small number of moving parts, fast delivery as well as simple installation, use and maintenance. An open system for overhead movement in the x-y dimension is enabled by two beams, either in the form of arches set on the floor or suspended rails from the ceiling, and at least one girder. Movement in the e dimension is enabled by the tool of choice, either a TAWI vacuum lifter or a winch. The tool is suspended from the crane and the accompanying vacuum tube or electric cable is elegantly managed in the overhead structure of the overhead crane system.

For long distances, we recommend your single girder crane system to be designed around a single beam structure in steel, a common industrial installation, as by needing only few, or no, supporting columns the solution has the advantage of being out of the way. A single girder crane system can cover large work surfaces and be equipped with a long lane of multiple bridges to cover many workstations.
