Increase Productivity and Safety with a Workstation Crane

28 Mar, 2023
Cranes come in all types and sizes, but one of the most flexible – and most versatile – is a workstation crane. At DQCRANES, workstation cranes are perfect for use in workspaces where workers are required to repeat precise movements or repetitively lift heavy loads.
 
By utilizing a workstation crane, workers can easily move heavy loads from one location to another with minimal effort. This not only saves time but also reduces the risk of workplace injuries caused by manual handling. Workstation cranes are often found in automotive production or repair facilities and fabrication shops.
 
Installing a workstation crane lift can be cost-effective. You can choose a floor-mounted design, bypassing structural investments that can come with ceiling-mounted crane lifts. In addition, DQCRANES workstation crane can save you time, reduce workplace liability, improve productivity, and help make your operation more profitable.

Benefits:

Why more and more are companies choosing and installing workstation cranes from DQCRANES? The benefits are as follows:
 
Improved Productivity
  • Workstation cranes can reduce the number of workers needed to move heavy equipment and materials. They can help speed up production by reducing lifting time and reducing errors from moving and positioning goods. Workstation crane lifts can also be installed almost anywhere in your warehouse or production floor, allowing you to add lift capacity when and where you need it. 
Improved Worker Safety
  • One of the key benefits of a properly-installed workstation crane lift is worker safety. When workers don’t have to lift or shift heavy loads, they’re less likely to be injured on the job. Workstation cranes can reduce the chance of injury from both repetitive strain and lifting.

Increased Product Quality
  • A reduction in error also means an improvement in product quality. There is less danger of damage when lifting and shifting, reducing damage to parts and products during the manufacturing or repair processes. 

Workstation Crane Solutions - DQCRANES

DQCRANES Workstation Bridge Crane is a pre-engineered modular crane that is easy to relocate or expand, making it a cost-effective solution for your needs. We design both freestanding floor mounted workstation cranes and ceiling-mounted workstation cranes for sale. 

Workstation Crane Lift Solutions – Floor Mounted

Floor mounted also called freestanding workstation cranes are easy to install and can be relocated as needed throughout your warehouse, factory, or workspace. With capacities up to 2 tons, and the ability to support bridge lengths up to 10 meters, our kits are individually sized to meet your exact space and lifting requirements. There are some key features of our Free Standing Work Station Cranes:

  • Enclosed track. You can erect the workstation bridge crane anywhere on the facility floor. Not only deliver smooth movement of your product, and help prolong the working life of your crane.
  • Ease of movement. This kind of assembly allows for the easier movement of bridges and trolleys, and there is no debris buildup along the track. The consistent, easy movement ensures the longevity of trolley wheels. Which means less maintenance, fewer possible repairs, and less downtime.
  • Superior load positioning. When the bridge moves along the enclosed track, there is no unexpected shifting, such as swaying, shimmying, or crabwalking. The load is transported efficiently from point to point because every part of the frame is assembled to ensure superior load distribution.
  • Flexible precision. With a sturdy design, workers can count on the precise location of the load as they perform their tasks. As your product requirements change, the workstation can be moved to accommodate your workers’ needs on the assembly line.
We offer cost-effective workstation cranes with multiple track profiles and span capabilities. If you need, contact us for a quote today. 

Workstation Crane Lift Solutions – Ceiling Mounted

Ceiling-mounted workstation cranes are a great solution if you have tight space or if the steel supports of a floor-mounted crane would hinder the movement of your equipment. Like our floor-mounted designs, our ceiling-mounted workstation cranes feature bridge lengths of up to 10 meters, with capacities of up to 2 tons. Although not as easily moved as floor-mounted workstation cranes, our ceiling-mounted cranes are simple to install and extend if needed. Here are some key features of our Ceiling Mounted Work Station Cranes:

  • Built to order. A production manager can easily adjust the crane design and location to work with their ever changing facility and workflow. Whether it be adjusting the runway length or adding additional bridges.
  • Flexible design. With this system, the production manager can easily add or subtract extra sections to the track along the runway to fit the mechanical task or the transport of heavy loads.
  • Safe hoist operations. Each track profile has a built-in impact safety factor and is predesigned to accommodate hoist weight. A trolley operator can ensure the safe and ergonomic movements (vertical and/or horizontal) of the load or parts assembly at any point along the track.
  • Dependable and precise. Any production or distribution facility that has workers manipulating heavy loads faces greater risks of accidents. Because the entire mechanism will stay rigid (allowing for zero movements of the load), workers can carry out assembly or hoisting tasks with confidence.
DQCRANES offers a variety of modular kit forms that can be sized to suit your space and lifting needs. Want to learn more or request a quote? Contact us today.
