Unlocking Crane Types

Lifting equipment, or cranes, is essential in hangars for moving heavy objects safely and efficiently. Depending on the application and requirements, several types of lifting systems are commonly used. Hassanoglu Company specializes in supplying a wide variety of these lifting systems, customized to meet specific client needs and applications. Below are the main types, along with their descriptions and applications:

1. Overhead Cranes (Bridge Cranes)

Overhead cranes, also known as bridge cranes, consist of a horizontal beam (bridge) that runs along tracks mounted on the hangar walls or ceiling. A hoist moves along the bridge to lift and transport loads.

Applications:

Ideal for large hangars to lift heavy machinery, tools, or aircraft parts.
Commonly used in maintenance facilities for precise placement of components.

2. Jib Cranes

Jib cranes feature a horizontal arm (jib) mounted on a vertical column or wall. The arm can rotate to cover a circular area, making it perfect for localized lifting tasks.

Applications:

Used in small spaces within hangars to lift parts or equipment.
Excellent for repetitive tasks like loading or unloading materials in a specific area.

3. Gantry Cranes

Gantry cranes are portable lifting systems with a horizontal beam supported by legs that move on wheels or tracks. They can be used indoors or outdoors, making them highly versatile.

Applications:

Suitable for hangars where overhead cranes are not feasible.
Used to assemble or move aircraft parts within flexible working areas.

4. Marble Lifting Cranes

Marble lifting cranes are specifically designed to handle heavy slabs of marble and other natural stones with precision and care. These cranes are equipped with specialized attachments like vacuum lifters or clamps to securely lift and move the materials without causing damage.

Applications:

Widely used in hangars or warehouses for storing and organizing marble slabs.
Essential in marble manufacturing and processing facilities for loading and unloading operations.
