GANTRIES
Gantries are lifting devices consisting of a lifting frame, which may be fixed or movable on rails, and a horizontal beam resting on two pylons. On the horizontal beam of the gantry crane, there is usually a trolley or hoist used for handling in workshops.
Mobile cranes, ideal for indoor use. The mobile jib crane can lift loads ranging from 150 kg to 500 kg with a radius of action of around two metres. The mobile jib crane can be moved by means of all-terrain wheels, which allow it to move on any type of ground. The most commonly used model is the mobile jib crane with a triangular boom with a hollow profile that adapts to workshop conditions.
Drum cranes are the most common cranes, especially in the industrial sector. This type of crane is designed to move very heavy loads of up to several tonnes. They can be used for both indoor and outdoor applications. The jib crane is fixed with chemical anchors or with anchor rods and concrete blocks. The jib cranes are available with a triangular or inverted jib with a rotation range of 270° to 360° and a reach of up to 9 metres.
The wall-mounted jib cranes are equipped with a triangular or inverted jib, which reduces the headroom. The wall-mounted jib crane has the option of being motorised or manual with a 180° rotation. The wall-mounted jib cranes are suitable for individual use and avoid clutter in the work area. The lifting capacity of this type of jib crane ranges from 150kg to 4 tonnes with a standard reach of up to 8000mm.
To choose the right jib crane for your lifting application, you need to:
Know the environment in which you want to install your jib crane. This will allow you to choose between a fixed jib crane, a mobile jib crane or a wall-mounted jib crane.
Know the load you wish to lift with the crane. The weight will allow you to choose the necessary lifting capacity.
Know the maximum height and reach required to lift the load.
Know the type of jib crane you want : you can choose between an electric jib crane or a manual jib crane.

For all types of workshops, indoors or outdoors, gantry cranes are indispensable for lifting heavy loads. They are strong, easy to install, easy to use and simplify the movement and handling of loads in the workshop. In addition, these lifting devices can carry loads ranging from 500 kg to 5 tons. The gantry lifts are easily assembled and designed with strong and resistant materials to withstand different lifting operations.
The fixed gantry, equipped with two fixed legs and anchored to the ground with pins. The fixed gantry is therefore not intended for moving. However, if you wish to move your fixed gantry crane, you must dismantle the equipment. Fixed gantry cranes are therefore mainly intended for permanent use on the site where they are installed.
The mobile gantry crane is equipped with four 360° swivel wheels installed at the feet of the crane. These four wheels make it easy to move the machine in a workshop or on a building site on a smooth and flat floor. A runway may be built into the floor beforehand to facilitate movement. There are gantries that can be moved under load and gantries that can be moved without load.
One of the advantages of these mobile workshop gantries is their mobility. They can move loads easily thanks to their wheels. This means that you can bring your lifting equipment directly to the place where you want to lift your load. Furthermore, with the mobile equipment that can be added to the gantries, you can position the lifted load more easily. This type of gantry crane offers you safety and flexibility.
