Rice Lake
The Challenge
Rice Lake Weighing Systems, a global leader in precision weighing and measurement technology, continues to invest in advanced manufacturing facilities to support its growing worldwide operations.
When planning the launch of its new fabrication and assembly plant in Pithampur in 2023, Rice Lake needed a robust lifting solution capable of handling heavy loads with maximum precision, efficiency, and safety. Reliable lifting was essential to maintain the company’s strict quality standards and production flow.
Having successfully used Street hoist technology since 2013 at its Chennai facility and previously in the United States, Rice Lake had long-standing confidence in the performance, durability, and service support provided by Street and Skyline. This proven track record created a clear benchmark for the new plant’s requirements.

To meet the demands of the Pithampur expansion, Skyline Industries—a trusted Street Crane distributor—designed and supplied a comprehensive lifting package featuring Nine 10 tonne Street Double Girder EOT Cranes.
These cranes were selected and customised to integrate seamlessly into Rice Lake’s new plant layout, ensuring smooth material flow throughout fabrication and assembly operations.
