3.2 Tonne Overhead Crane Project
At West Crane Services, we’re dedicated to providing innovative, Australian-made lifting solutions tailored to our clients’ unique operational needs. Recently, we completed a remarkable project involving the design, manufacture, and installation of a custom 3.2-tonne single girder overhead crane with an impressive 28-meter span. This crane showcases the strength of Australian manufacturing and the latest in lifting technology, combining the precision and reliability of the Guralp GA Hoist with the advanced Akerstrom Jupiter Remote System.
Project Overview
Our client required a durable, high-performing overhead crane capable of handling heavy loads across a significant span. With this in mind, we designed and manufactured a solution that met all of their specifications and ensured the utmost safety, precision, and ease of operation.
The final product—a single girder, 3.2-tonne capacity overhead crane with a 28-meter span—was engineered and built to handle rigorous workloads, making it perfect for demanding industrial environments.
Key Features of the Project
- Australian Made and Certified
We take pride in supporting local industries, and this crane is a testament to our commitment. Manufactured right here in Australia, it bears the Australian Made certification, symbolizing high quality, durability, and compliance with stringent industry standards. - Advanced Lifting Technology with the Guralp GA Hoist
At the heart of the crane’s lifting power is the Guralp GA Hoist, a trusted component known for its reliability, precision, and robust performance. The GA Hoist allows for smooth, controlled lifting and lowering of loads, making it ideal for operations where efficiency and safety are priorities. - Akerstrom Jupiter Remote System
Precision control is key in any lifting operation, which is why we integrated the Akerstrom Jupiter Remote System. This advanced remote control system enables operators to handle the crane from a safe distance, offering enhanced flexibility, increased safety, and intuitive control over all crane functions. - 28-Meter Span for Extensive Coverage
With a remarkable 28-meter span, this single girder crane was custom-designed to cover a large operational area, meeting our client’s need for a crane that could maximize reach without sacrificing stability or performance. - Rigorous Testing and Certification
Prior to installation, the crane underwent extensive testing to ensure it met both Australian safety standards and the specific requirements of our client’s industry. We meticulously checked every component to ensure it would perform safely and reliably in its intended environment.
The Benefits for Our Client
With the new 3.2-tonne single girder overhead crane in place, our client now enjoys:
- Increased Operational Efficiency: The Guralp GA Hoist and Akerstrom Jupiter Remote System provide seamless lifting and precise control, allowing operators to complete tasks faster and more effectively.
- Enhanced Safety: Remote operation minimizes the need for personnel to be near the load, greatly reducing the risk of accidents.
- Durable, Low-Maintenance Equipment: Our Australian-made crane is built to last, with reduced maintenance requirements that help keep downtime to a minimum.
