GANTRY / GOLIATH CRANES

Cranoist Engineers offers high-performance Gantry or Goliath Cranes designed for industries that need heavy-duty lifting in open spaces or indoor spaces. These cranes are perfect for areas where a fixed building structure is not available or practical—such as construction sites, shipyards, fabrication yards, and large industrial zones.

• A Gantry Crane is an overhead lifting system supported by two vertical legs that move along rails or wheels. The crane bridge spans across the legs and carries the hoist and trolley mechanism to lift and move heavy loads.
• A Goliath Crane is a larger, more powerful version of a gantry crane. It’s built for handling extremely heavy loads and longer spans, making it ideal for shipbuilding, infrastructure, and other heavy engineering projects.

Technical Specifications

• Capacity: 2 to 50 tons
• Span: 5 to 40 meters
• Lifting Height: 3 to 38 meters
• Design Type: Box girder (double) / RST girder (single)
• Control: Pendant, cabin, or remote with VFD control
• Environment: Outdoor or indoor use with weather-resistant build

Types of Gantry Cranes

1. Single Girder Gantry Crane
• One bridge beam
• Lightweight and economical
• Ideal for low-duty applications
2. Double Girder Gantry Crane
• Two bridge beams for increased capacity
• Superior stability and hook height
• Suitable for heavy-duty use
3. Semi-Gantry Crane
• One leg moves on the floor, the other runs on a building structure
• Perfect for constrained or partially covered spaces

Application

These cranes are vital in industries requiring bulk material handling, including:
• Shipbuilding Yards – Transporting large ship components and hulls
• Construction Sites – Lifting steel beams, precast blocks, and heavy machinery
• Warehouses & Logistics – Moving cargo and pallets in open yards
• Automobile Sector – Removing or assembling engines and chassis
• Railway Yards – Handling containers and maintenance tasks
• Steel & Fabrication Plants – Loading raw materials and finished components
