High Gas Prices

Got You Steaming?

Dynamic PDF of Wallace Crane and Steam Turbine

Wallace Portable gantry cranes use no gas at all. The only steam you will see may be an occasional steam turbine, like the one depicted above. Easily pushed on smooth rolling casters, you can move loads up to 10 tons without using a single drop of gas. Even the "powered" all-electric, air, or hydraulic units use no direct fossil fuels. With gas so expensive, can you afford automation?

Designed when gas was cheap, Wallace Cranes are still a bargain. They provide a versatile lifting solution that never needs to be topped off to keep working. Even height adjustments can be done manually with a Wallace Jack Kit. So laugh off gas prices, at least on the shop floor. It's business as usual, with gas-free Wallace Cranes.

Wallace also provides quick remote access to help you rebuild and inspect your cranes. Two page assembly manuals and inspection packets are downloadable from the web.

This is the 6th installment of a series of application stories designed to highlight serious lifting options. Please note that no lifting slings are shown in the image. For any real lifting you should be sure the load is secure and the trolley, hoist, and crane are sized for the expected load.
