Imagine that a worker needs to move back and forth while manipulating heavy loads or machine parts. If you have a flexible production facility, you can easily install a bridge crane on a 6-inch concrete floor and create the ability for the worker to perform the desired task. Because there is no overhead mounting required, there will be no unnecessary stress on the facility`s structure.

A ceiling mounted bridge crane works well in a building with a concrete, steel, or aluminum frame covering. This system will sustain a maximum load of 4,000 pounds. When you choose the overhead design, there are no work areas where workers trip over or bump into workstations. The loads move overhead, which also easily accommodates more pedestrian traffic and forklift operations.

Our patented track underhung crane systems have an impressive track record of reliable, long-lasting service in high-duty-cycle applications, loading docks, parts assembly, equipment maintenance and truck service centers. Cleveland Tramrail®’s underhung crane systems can be used to efficiently move material through an entire production facility. With capacities from 5 to 40 ton, our underhung systems are superior to I-Beams in strength, durability, and consistency while also offering extended track life. Our Cleveland Tramrail® Underhung Systems are easily changeable and expandable, making them cost effective for your facility.

Cleveland Tramrail offers a wide variety of monorail products to support your manufacturing needs. Cleveland Tramrail offers components including straight and curved track, interlocks to bridge cranes and switches for changing direction to various work centers. Applications include necropsy laboratories, foundries along with paint and coating lines. Cleveland Tramrail products continue to reflect the quality that made Cleveland Tramrail the patented track leader, with the value added customer service and support that made Gorbel "A Class Above.".

Free Standing Jib Cranes are Gorbel’s most versatile crane and are best for heavy duty, high productivity applications. They are the perfect jib crane to place underneath large bridge cranes, in open areas where they can serve several work stations, in outdoor applications such as loading docks, or in machining and assembly operations where they can be overlapped with other jib cranes to provide staged operation.

Wall Bracket Jib Cranes are an economical, heavy duty solution. They contain a single tie rod, right hand threaded at both ends for easy boom adjustment and installation. These tie rod jibs are ideal for swinging around obstacles or under obstructions.

Free Standing Work Station Jib Cranes (WSJ360) are Gorbel’s most versatile crane and are best for low capacity, high productivity applications. They are the perfect jib crane to place underneath large bridge cranes, in open areas where they can serve several work stations, in outdoor applications such as loading docks, or in machining and assembly operations where they can be overlapped with other jib cranes to provide staged operation.

Wall Bracket Work Station Jib Cranes (WSJ200) are an economical, heavy duty solution. They use tapered roller bearings at the pivot points for unsurpassed ease of rotation. The cantilevered design allows for maximum headroom.

The Free Standing Articulating Jib Crane is perfect for environments that would greatly benefit from an articulating jib, but lack the necessary walls or columns to mount the crane. This crane offers effortless rotation and a consistent responsiveness when positioning loads in a work cell, through open doorways, or into machines. Free Standing Articulating Jibs are also offered with foundationless options to save you money.

The AJ360-C Ceiling Mounted Articulating Jib Crane is mounted overhead leaving nothing to disrupt workflow in the production area below. It can be stationary mounted or platform supported. Available in standard capacities up to 2000 lbs. and spans to 16’. The Ceiling Mounted Articulating Jib Crane can be stationary mounted or platform supported from a Gorbel® Work Station Dual Girder Bridge Crane, which enables usage outside the normal coverage of a bridge crane or the jib to swing under obstructions. With the jib mounted to a platform, multiple work cells can be covered with just one crane and lifting device.
