Gantry Crane Project Update

Morocco project update: 25-ton gantry crane fully installed and now in load testing phase.

Nothing fancy, just that satisfying moment when everything works under real load.

Client is happy, crew is happier 😄

“Do you guys sell used cranes?” — the question we hear every week

Every week without fail:

Client: “Do you have any used cranes?”

Us: “We manufacture new cranes.”

Client: “Yeah, but… any used ones?”

I guess people assume every crane supplier secretly runs a second-hand marketplace on the side.

We focus on new builds — design, production, installation, the whole package. No used inventory hiding in the back 😄

Nothing against used equipment, it’s just a totally different lane. Anyone else in the lifting industry getting the same question over and over?

Indoor Gantry Crane Setup

Sharing a recent gantry crane installation for an indoor steel coil handling application.

Large span, heavy-duty structure, and designed for frequent material transfer inside the workshop. This type of setup is a practical option when overhead crane runway construction is limited.

Always interesting to see different lifting solutions used in steel processing plants.

Caught this European-style 5 ton overhead crane being installed at a site in Ethiopia. Always interesting to see how these projects come together in different environments.

The team was working through some site-specific challenges, but overall progress looked solid. Curious to see how it performs once fully commissioned.
