Portable
Gantry Cranes, Steel, Aluminum, and More!
What's New?
 |
Wallace
portable gantry cranes are ideal for maintenance, manufacturing,
repairs, and other materials handling tasks. Many customers use our
cranes for HVAC, assembly, and repairs of physical plant equipment.
Current users include electric utilities, municipal maintenance
(including subways, buses, and building facilities), research
institutions, and the military for routine scheduled maintenance of
aircraft and similar equipment.
In large
and small shops, adjustable cranes can go where forklifts often can’t.
Too, lighter weight cranes work well where there are floor weight
restrictions. With adjustable width tread, Wallace cranes can fit
through narrow aisles. With adjustable height or span, a single crane
can provide a flexible lifting solution. Using Wallace Kart Kits, the
proprietary design allows for quick disassembly and assembly for easy
transport within a job site or from site to site.

height aluminum units, adjustable height steel units, fixed height
aluminum units, or fixed height steel units. All units include a
standard base with lashing cable. Rubber base pad kits, mud base plate
kits, and spike base kits are optional for all units.

crane in seconds. Choose from Pivot Boom Units, or Fixed Boom Units.
Both styles include two hooks to lift long objects, or you can use just
one hook to lift smaller objects. PIVOT BOOM…2,865 lbs. and 6,000 lbs.
maximum capacities. Boom pivots to five different angles (0 to 40
degrees in 10 degree increments). Go to
Quick Navigation

Hook reach 42 in. 5124 SERIES features 1,600 lbs. capacity includes
manual or electric winch. Maximum Hook reach 81 in. Go to Quick Navigation
JIB Cranes
(Floor Mounted) or (Wall
Mounted).
Jib cranes are
typically either floor mounted with a large diameter floor plate and a
heavy wall pipe column or wall mounted. These fixed cranes are often
used for manufacturing, assembly, or maintenance situations where the
parts are brought to the crane.
Why Aluminum?
Industries
that place a premium on ease of set-up and ease of transportation may
prefer aluminum components. For example in HVAC, Wallace cranes may be
moved from job site to job site, which demands easy assembly and set-up
without overhead cranes. The small price premium is quickly recovered
with the reduced overall set-up time. Even within a single shop, the
need to set-up a crane in multiple locations can yield similar costs
savings. Shop time and space are limited, and expensive. While mobile, assembled Wallace cranes do not roll through all
doorways!
Another
reason to choose aluminum may be floor weight restrictions. One
customer ordered an aluminum beam so they could lift to the crane's
capacity and not exceed the weight restrictions for the second floor.
In locations such as research
facilities, there is a new-found "do-it-yourself" mode to cope with
staff reductions. aluminum cranes are very popular here. These lighter
cranes can be moved easily by the research staff. The aluminum cranes
save backs and still easily handle the heavy lifting of the often
delicate electronic and experimental equipment.
Crane Selector page.
A lifting
solution is incomplete without a hoist. Each hoist must be carefully
matched to the work environment. As such, there is no standard
hoist. Many of the options and considerations are covered in the
following link. Hoist Selector page.
