Design & Manufacture of Overhead Gantry Cranes

3 red overhead gantry cranes, ranging from between 8 to 60t
With a wide variety of overhead gantry cranes available, RHC Lifting can design a crane to match your exact requirements. Using sophisticated configuration software, RHC Lifting Limited can design customised solutions based on standardised components, whilst ensuring that the most appropriate components are selected whilst also offering the best possible price.

Possible solutions include: 

Single Girder Gantry Cranes

A single girder crane design is a cost-effective solution with short spans of up to 30 metres and for lifting loads up to 40t.


Either using a profile or box girder to suspend n SWF Krantechnik; SK chain hoist or a NOVA wire rope hoist.   

Double Girder Gantry Cranes

RHC Lifting would propose a double girder crane for wider spans and lifting heavier weights. Either a double profile girder or a double fabricated box can be utilised depending on the exact requirements. A double girder crab trolley is suspended between the double beams assembled.


Using SWF Krantechnik crane components, RHC Lifting can design, manufacture and install a double girder crane for capacities up to 160t and with spans of over 30 metres. Double girder cranes can also be supplied with a fixed maintenance platform to allow safe and easy access to the hoist.

Underslung Gantry Cranes

When floor-mounted gantry steelwork is not feasible or in areas with minimal available space an underslung crane offers a potential solution. With the gantry rail mounted directly onto the factory ceiling, a larger working envelope can be achieved to make full use of the space available. Underslung cranes are ideal when a latching system is required to transfer a load between different bays.

Using SWF Krantechnik components, RHC Lifting can design, manufacture and install an underslung girder crane for capacities up to 12.5t and with spans up to 28 metres.

Goliath and Semi-Goliath Cranes

When no gantry structure is available or not feasible or the existing gantry is not adequate a floor running goliath crane offers a versatile solution. In situations, when only one gantry structure is available a semi-goliath crane is a solution. With one side of the crane floor running that the other attached to a fixed gantry. Either a single or double girder design can be utilised to produce a goliath crane.

Goliath and semi-goliath cranes are regularly used in outdoor operations or in factories with limited.
