Light Crane System Request
Klane Tool, Inc. provides machine shop services for tool and equipment manufacturers in Canada. The machine shop produces specialized tools and parts for companies that build machines for many different industries. Their machining operations also include designing and building automated assembly systems for their customers. They use large steel blocks and other heavy components for machining, and these parts have to be lifted and moved into place.
For a long time, Klane Tool used forklifts and a
portable jib crane for all material handling within the facility. Even with the assistance of a worker, Any time had a large amount of materials to move maneuvering throughout the facility could also be difficult and time-consuming.
KBK Crane Solution
With these problems in mind, our client Mr. Paul, which is the owner of Klane Tool, considered installing portable jibs at every workstation at first. However, individual
portable jib cranes would address all problems, but installation would be long and expensive, and they would use a large amount of floorspace.
To find a solution that deal with every problem, Paul asked for us, according to his requirement, our sales engineer recommended a free standing
workstation crane. This double girder KBK crane system we supplied with 2000kg capacity, an overall span of 7.8 meters and a height of 4 meters. The machine shop is laid out closely with all of the machining equipment, so each support column had to be carefully determined.
