Whether you’re lifting cartons, drums, pails, sheet metal, or heavy machinery components, our lightweight overhead crane systems are built for safety, flexibility, and seamless integration with our full range of vacuum lifters.
Our crane solutions are perfect for manufacturing, warehousing, logistics, and workshops across Australia — wherever efficient material handling is essential.
What is a gantry crane?
A gantry crane, also known as a lightweight workstation crane, is a modular overhead crane system engineered for ergonomic manual handling. Designed for safety, flexibility, and seamless vacuum lifter integration, it offers smooth movement with precision rails and low-friction trolleys—ideal for safe, efficient lifting of loads between approximately 50 kg and 500 kg across workshops, warehouses, logistics, and manufacturing environments.
Why Choose Our Workstation Cranes?
Our modular lightweight crane systems are engineered for strength, smooth operation, and minimal operator effort. Built from high-grade materials, they offer exceptional load-bearing capacity while reducing structural weight. This allows for low rolling resistance, high-speed movement, and ergonomic operation — even in tight workspaces or low headroom areas.
Key benefits include:
- Smooth, effortless travel thanks to precision rails
- Modular design for easy customisation and future expansion
- Freestanding or ceiling-mounted options
- Low-friction trolleys for precise positioning
- Quiet and low-maintenance systems
- Compatible with all our vacuum lifting equipment
Whether you’re handling 50kg or 500kg, our aluminium gantry and bridge cranes are designed to boost productivity and protect your staff from injury due to awkward manual handling tasks.
