Industrial Overhead Cranes Designed for Efficiency and Safety<\/h2>\n

Overhead cranes –\u00a0commonly referred to as bridge cranes – are designed to lift and move heavy loads horizontally within a defined work area. They consist of parallel runways supported by the building structure, with a traveling bridge spanning between them. A hoist mounted on the bridge provides vertical lifting motion while traversing along the bridge for precise load positioning.<\/p>\n

Overhead cranes are widely used in manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and industrial plants where efficient material handling and accurate load control are essential. They provide full coverage of large work areas while delivering consistent, repeatable lifting performance.<\/p>\n

All of our single girder<\/a> and double girder<\/a>\u00a0overhead cranes utilize pre-engineered components wherever possible, providing a reliable and cost-effective lifting solution.<\/p>\n

Street Crane delivers premier UK-engineered hoists and components, maintained in local US warehouses for rapid nationwide shipping.<\/p>\n

Benefits of Using an Overhead Crane:<\/h2>\r\n
\r\n
\r\n Maximized Space Utilization \u2013 Overhead operation preserves floor space while providing full-area coverage. <\/div>\r\n
\r\n Designed with integrated safety systems to reduce risk and support safe, reliable lifting operations. <\/div>\r\n
\r\n Overhead cranes enable fast, precise material handling, reducing loading and unloading times and improving overall material flow. <\/div>\r\n
\r\n Suitable for a wide range of applications and industries, including manufacturing, warehousing, and construction. <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n

Street overhead cranes are designed and constructed to match your lifting requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n

Single Girder Overhead<\/h3>\n
\n

Single girder cranes are the most popular type of overhead crane, offering a cost-effective lifting solution for capacities up to 28 tons and suitability for both indoor and outdoor applications.<\/p>\n

Street\u2019s top-running single girder cranes deliver the same reliability and performance as larger crane configurations, while generating lower wheel loads. This reduces building and structural support requirements, resulting in lower installation costs and an attractive price-to-performance ratio.<\/p>\n

Depending on the application, Street single girder cranes are equipped with either Street ZX electric wire rope hoists<\/a> or our LX electric chain hoists.<\/a>\u00a0 LX chain hoists are typically used for very low capacities or when a highly competitive, cost-focused solution is required.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n

Double Girder Overhead<\/h3>\n
\n

Double girder cranes can be engineered to fit within the roof space of a building, making them ideal where maximum lifting height is a primary requirement.<\/p>\n

The trolley design of a double girder crane also provides improved side hook approach compared to a single girder crane, particularly in applications requiring greater lift heights.<\/p>\n

Double girder cranes are available in capacities up to 90 tons equipped with our ZX <\/span> electric wire rope hoists<\/strong><\/span><\/a> and up to 250 tons using our heavier duty VX open hoist<\/a>. Our top running double girders cranes are designed to run on either four or eight long travel wheels depending on capacity, rail size and duty.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n
