Single girder overhead cranes use a single beam to support the hoist, which typically runs along the underside of the crane. This design offers a cost-effective and efficient solution for a range of lifting operations. Single girder cranes are commonly used in workshops, warehouses, and light manufacturing environments where lifting requirements are moderate and efficiency is key.
Single Girder Overhead Crane Key Features
Firstly, single girder cranes have a lower overall cost compared to double girder cranes.
Due to their small size, they are more suited to smaller warehouses and businesses who are operating with lighter capacities.
There is a reduced structural load on the building structure, due to their smaller size. Which also means there is a simpler installation compared to a double girder.
The more compact design makes single girders ideal for operations where there is limited headroom space.
