Semi Gantry Cranes
Semi Gantry Cranes are also known as single-leg cranes which are used in specified limited working area. These cranes don’t require runway support on both sides. One end carriage of a semi gantry crane travels on the regular gantry rail while the opposite end-carriage travels on a rail mounted on the ground. Moreover, these can be used for both indoors and outdoors. Semi Gantry Cranes are available in capacities up to 30 Ton.
At its core, a Semi Gantry Crane offers the same material handling efficiency as a full gantry crane but with a smart space-saving design. With one side supported by a traditional gantry runway and the other by ground-level rails, this crane design reduces structural needs and installation costs. It’s ideal for facilities that face spatial constraints or have partial building support, allowing for optimized usage of both floor and overhead space. These cranes are typically installed in industrial workshops, warehouses, and outdoor yards where a full gantry setup isn’t practical or cost-effective.
