Overhead Cranes
Electric Hoist Cranes
Electric hoist cranes custom-built for lifting duties from aerospace to energy.
Product Overview
Electric hoist cranes custom-built for lifting duties from aerospace to energy. Two arrangements are offered: a single-girder crane where one beam supports the hoist, and a double-girder crane where two beams share the load and allow capacities up to 600 tons. Both are designed to shorten cycle times and reduce manual handling in manufacturing, assembly, shipyard, warehousing, storage, construction and steel plant environments.
Key benefits
Why Buyers Choose This Specification
600 Tons Available on the Double-Girder Build
Two beams give more support than one, which is what allows loads up to 600 tons. A single-girder crane cannot be uprated into that range whatever hoist is fitted.
Built Around the Application
These cranes are custom-built rather than selected from a catalogue, so the hoist, span and controls follow the lifting task instead of the other way round.
Faster Cycles With Less Manual Effort
The stated design intent is faster cycle times and minimal manual effort. In assembly and warehousing that shows up as fewer people on the floor per load moved.
One Supplier Across Seven Industries
Manufacturing, assembly lines, shipyards, warehousing, storage, construction and steel and metal all use the same crane family, so a multi-site buyer standardises once.
Application scenarios
Where It Is Used
- Manufacturing plants lifting raw material, machinery and factory equipment
- Assembly lines transporting parts and components between stations
- Shipyards handling containers and marine components
- Warehousing operations processing heavy inventory
- Storage areas stacking products with less reliance on manual labour
- Construction sites lifting and positioning building materials, beams, machines and parts
- Steel mills and fabrication plants assisting casting operations
Who it is for
The Buyers This Product Suits
Assembly Line Operations
Moving parts between stations is a repetitive short-cycle duty. Electric hoist cranes are specified for exactly this pattern.
Warehouses Reducing Manual Handling
Stacking and storing with a crane is safer and less labour-dependent than manual or forklift handling of heavy items.
Steel and Metal Plants
Casting operations in steel mills and fabrication plants are a named application for this range.
Problems it solves
What It Fixes
Manual Handling of Heavy Inventory
Warehouses and storage areas stacking by hand or by forklift carry both injury risk and damage cost. A hoist crane removes the lift from the operator.
Slow Transfers Between Stations
Assembly lines lose time moving components station to station. A hoist crane over the line makes the transfer part of the process.
Capacity Ceilings on Single-Girder Cranes
Where the duty will grow past what one beam can support, the double-girder arrangement carries up to 600 tons on the same principle.

How It Ships And What Comes With It
Packing And Loading
Shipping volume for this item depends on the configuration and capacity you select, so no fixed container figure is published. Confirm the specification and the destination and a loading plan is issued with the quotation, rather than a figure we cannot support.

Sourcing And Inspection
This product is supplied through TrueGlow Imaging, working with manufacturing partners whose facilities are visited and verified rather than taken on trust. In-process quality control and delivery supervision are available so goods are inspected before the container is sealed. Certifications quoted on this page are those stated on the product specification and belong to that product range rather than to our trading entity, so ask for the certificate covering your specific item.
Handling guide
Getting It Right First Time
Step 1
Define the heaviest item and the shortest cycle you need; both decide the hoist selection.
Step 2
Choose single-girder for lighter, simpler duty and double-girder where capacity or span is high.
Step 3
Give the building span and clear height so the crane can be custom-built to the bay.
Step 4
Confirm the power supply available at the runway position.
Step 5
Plan operator training for the control format chosen, since cycle gains depend on it.
Comparison
How It Compares In Our Range
Single beam or two, and what each arrangement makes possible.
| Single-Girder | A single beam supports the hoist. Lighter structure, lower cost, suited to moderate capacity and span. |
|---|---|
| Double-Girder | Two beams give more support, allowing loads up to 600 tons and greater spans. |
FAQ
Electric Hoist Cranes Questions
How heavy can an electric hoist crane lift?
Up to 600 tons on the double-girder arrangement. Single-girder cranes cover lighter duty.
Are these standard or custom cranes?
They are custom-built to the lifting need, including span, hook height, hoist selection and controls.
Which industries do you supply?
Manufacturing, assembly lines, shipyards, warehousing, storage, construction, and steel and metal industries.
Will it work over an assembly line?
Yes. Transporting parts and components between stations is one of the intended applications.
What reduces our cycle time?
The crane is designed for faster cycle times and minimal manual effort, mainly by removing the manual lift and reposition steps.
Can you advise on single versus double girder?
Send the heaviest load, the span and the lifts per hour on WhatsApp and the arrangement is recommended with the quotation.

Guides That Cover This Product
Choosing an Overhead Crane Light Build or Winch Build
Most crane enquiries name a tonnage. The two questions that actually decide the crane are whether the hook pulls as well as lifts, and how many lifts it makes per shift.
Choosing a Jib Crane Mounting for Your Building
Six mounting types exist because the building constrains the crane more often than the load does. Wall, column, free-standing, articulating, mast and portable each solve a different constraint.
