EPDE single-girder suspension

Our EPDE suspension cranes leave your entire workshop area available for production. The cranes are simply attached to the existing roof structure – columns to support the crane runway are not needed. This design saves time and costs. Alternatively, the installation of stand-alone steel superstructures also enables the solution to be adapted to changed production requirements.

Further outstanding benefits of EPDE units:

rigid I-beam girders for optimum load distribution
specific sections of the workshop can be served
loads can be handled immediately adjacent to the building wall by means of girder ends tailored to your application requirements
lateral overhangs to extend the cross-travel path beyond the runway span
supplied with DR rope hoist or DC chain hoist (up to 5 tonnes).

Equipment Options
With our wide range of equipment options, we match our standard cranes to the individual requirements of your application:
automatic height adjustment of the control pendant to facilitate load attachment
control by pendant switch
control via bi-directional radio control with proportional pushbuttons
smooth starting helps to avoid load sway
end carriages with horizontal guide rollers eliminate skewing and thus the lateral forces which otherwise act on the crane runway
limit switches or slack rope relays protect the hoist and load from damage
bypass control system prevents collisions with obstacles along the crab travel path
anti-collision protection and crane distance controls ensure the safe operation of several cranes on one runway
cranes fitted with two crabs make it easy to handle long and awkward loads
comprehensive range of load handling attachments satisfies the most varied requirements.
