For maximum flexibility on all surfaces, order both types of tripod feet.
  • Spanco Monorail Cranes are ideal for production processes that require lifting and moving products along a fixed path, such as painting processes, moving raw materials to workstations, or warehouse-to-warehouse transfer. Ceiling-mounted monorails are great for applications with limited floorspace, facilities with large mobile equipment, and facility layouts that might change in the future. They can readily connect to other monorail systems to extend coverage to multiple work areas or your entire facility.
  • Spanco Monorail Cranes are ideal for production processes that require lifting and moving products along a fixed path, such as painting processes, moving raw materials to workstations, or warehouse-to-warehouse transfer. Freestanding monorails are ideal when:
    • The building structure cannot support a crane
    • Ceilings have other obstructions (air ducts, skylights, overhead storage)
    • You need a semi-permanent solution due to rental agreements
    • You want a customized width and length
    • You want to use a floor-mounted monorail in conjunction with a ceiling-mounted system
  • Spanco Headerless Workstation Bridge Cranes and Monorails are high-quality ergonomic material handling solutions, especially when you need a system in your garage, barn, or shop:
    • To move equipment and parts on a vehicle, such as an engine, a body of a race car, or a chassis for restoration.
    • To work on outdoor equipment, such as a motorcycle, boat, tractor, snowmobile, golf cart, or four-wheeler.
    • To lift anything up to 1,000 pounds safely by yourself.
  • LOOKING TO STREAMLINE YOUR MANUFACTURING PROCESS? Spanco Freestanding Workstation Bridge Cranes are the perfect ergonomic solution for extending lifting coverage and providing full access of movement. Our Freestanding Workstation Bridge Cranes can replace multiple cranes with one fluid system for improved efficiency and productivity.   Spanco Freestanding Workstation Bridge Cranes provide highly-effective cost-efficient lifting and moving solutions, especially when:  
    • You need overhead crane coverage for a large area––up to 40-feet wide and with unlimited length. With interconnected parallel systems, you can cover your entire building
    • You rent or lease your building. Our bolt-together freestanding systems can be readily relocated, either within your plant or in an entirely new location
    • You want to be able to easily expand or modify your overhead crane system
    • Your roof support is inadequate for a Spanco Ceiling-Mounted Bridge Crane. Typically, a standard six-inch thick reinforced concrete floor is all that’s needed for our freestanding workstation bridge cranes for non-seismic applications
  • TRYING TO BOOST PRODUCTIVITY WITHOUT SACRIFICING SPACE?
    Spanco Ceiling-Mounted Workstation Bridge Cranes provide unlimited lifting coverage without sacrificing floor space or obstructing work areas. Our Ceiling-Mounted Workstation Bridge Cranes eliminate the need for steel supports, making them a cost effective and ergonomic material handling solution. Spanco Ceiling-Mounted Workstation Bridge Cranes make the most of your existing building and production floor space. These systems:  
    • Hang from existing building beams or trusses
    • Require no system support columns, no attachments to building columns, and no production floor space
    • Allow you to readily expand runway lengths and the number of bridges, and add transitions to monorail crane systems
  • Spanco Alu-Track® is made from lightweight aluminum enclosed track to provide super-responsive crane performance.
    • The entire length of the top side of the track accepts hangers. The aluminum tracks are easily and precisely aligned.
    • The internally tapered track self-centers trolleys and end trucks, so rolling movement is smooth, quiet, and highly ergonomic.
    Spanco Alu-Track® systems are suitable for:
    • Clean environments
    • Refrigerated areas, including food packaging applications
    • Moisture-laden environments
    • Acidic environments (but not for base/alkaline)
    • R&D labs
    • Wherever lightweight, durable enclosed track is required
  • Features of Spanco T-Series Gantry Cranes

    • Superior Stability: Engineered design leaves I-beam free to pivot as it self-centers over the load. The “true A-frame” design helps to maintain greater stability, virtually eliminating the swaying motion common to other 3-way adjustable gantry designs. Main legs, brace legs, and caster frames are made of heavy-gauge, square tubing with zinc-plated hardware.
    • Adjustable Span: Exclusive Spanloc™ design securely holds the I-beam during adjustments and when set.
    • Cantilever Options: Deliver materials through end of gantry; cantilever up to 25 percent of the rated capacity (4-foot max.) using a counterweight.
    • Adjustable Height: Adjust in 6-inch intervals using push/pull pins on main legs.
    • Adjustable Tread: A cable assembly is bolted inside the caster frame tubes to prevent overspreading.
    • Heavy-Duty Casters: Four position, swivel-lock casters with moldon polyurethane wheels protect floors from damage.

    Common Uses

    Spanco is proud to serve customers in various industries, such as Space Exploration Technologies or SpaceX. SpaceX designs rockets and spacecraft and manufactures over half of its vehicles in-house. Their facility contains several work areas, including fabrication, machining, construction, and assembly cells. Workers at the facility needed a material handling solution to move heavy loads throughout their facility with increased accuracy and precision. That solution came in the form of a two-ton Spanco T-Series Gantry Crane. The T-Series Gantry Crane also provides greater adjustability to meet the rapidly changing size requirements within the SpaceX facility. Investing in a T-Series Gantry Crane allows SpaceX to improve production time and processing. By implementing the T-Series Gantry Crane, SpaceX could combine flexibility and precision while maintaining lift and cost-efficiency.
  • Excellent Alternative to Expensive Overhead Cranes

    Spanco Semi Gantry Cranes offer high capacity, high height, economical lifting solutions when:
    • Your plant has been “making do” with multiple forklifts; coordinating too many lifts, especially on heavy or very long loads, is unsafe, inefficient, and time consuming
    • Your lifting volume is moderate and can’t justify more expensive, permanently installed cranes
    • You need an economical, versatile lifting system to supplement your existing overhead cranes
    Our single leg crane (also known as a “semi gantry”) maximizes your space utilization. One leg end moves over the floor on wheels while the other end runs overhead on a wall-mounted I-beam using one of two end truck designs:
    Top-Running End Truck: The end of the gantry’s I-beam mounts onto an end truck that travels on the top side of an overhead runway beam
  • Spanco PF-Series Gantry Cranes offer high capacity, high height, long span, and economical lifting solutions.
    These strong, portal frame (PF) cranes can be ideal if:
    • Your building can’t support freestanding cranes or ceiling-mounted cranes; PF-Gantry Cranes are self-supporting and travel directly on the floor
    • Your lifting volume is moderate and can’t justify more expensive, permanently installed cranes
    • You need an economical, versatile lifting system to supplement your existing overhead cranes
    • You rent your facility; these gantries can be relocated in the future
    • Your plant has been “making do” with multiple forklifts; coordinating too many lifts, especially on heavy or very long loads, is unsafe, inefficient, and time consuming
    • Can’t fit a double leg PF crane into your plant due to narrow bays or crowded machinery? Check out our Spanco Single Leg Gantry Cranes.
    *For custom designs above and beyond the listed limitations, contact Spanco.
  • E-Series stands for Economical, but don’t be confused. These gantries are heavy-duty, industrial-grade cranes designed for long service life.
    • Strong: made from high-strength square mechanical tubing
