EOT Cranes:

  • EOT Cranes stand for “Electric Overhead Travelling”. These types of overhead cranes are stationary and allow for lateral movement across two planes.
  • Not only do they move backwards and forwards but can also move up and down with the load.
  • These cranes are perfect for indoor work, such as Factories, assembly lines, big warehouses, mining corporations, etc. can make good use of EOT cranes.
  • Low maintenance and ease to operate makes these cranes a good investment, especially if you have trained operators and experience frequent need for heavy load lifting.
  • The only thing to keep in mind is that they are not to be used in explosive and corrosive environments.

Monorail Hoist Cranes:

  • This monorail cranes stand for Hoist One Track, is a stationary overhead crane and allow for lateral movement across two planes as well.
  • They are more commonly used for maintenance purposes.
  • They have a hoist attached to the bridge which can be operated using an electric pendant.
  • They are low maintenance and a sound investment if you frequently need a lot of maintenance and repair in your enterprise.

Single Girder & Double Girder Cranes:

  • They are both used for heavy-lifting with the single and double-girder cranes specifically built for maximum load capacity.
  • Due to their need to lift excessively heavy loads, the EOT crane design principles applied are a bit more complex compared to simple EOT cranes.
  • The EOT crane parts such as the hoist and the trolley are more intricate in their design and function as they have to withstand heavier use.
