Crane Lifting Equipment | 0.5t–600t Industrial Solutions

A 5 ton overhead crane is one of the most common specifications for small to medium manufacturing, maintenance, and warehousing operations. This capacity easily handles typical machine parts, die sets, metal bundles, and palletized goods. The 5 ton overhead crane is often a single girder model with a wire rope electric hoist, providing a cost‑effective entry into mechanical material handling. Spans range from 7.5 to 22.5 meters, and lifting heights from 6 to 12 meters, though these can be extended on request. The crane runs on top‑mounted rails (top‑running) or under the roof beams (under‑hung) depending on the building strength. The hoist speed is typically 8 m/min for the main lift and 20 m/min for the trolley and bridge travel, ensuring a productive cycle time. For higher duty cycles or more precise positioning, a variable frequency drive can be added to allow smooth acceleration and deceleration. Safety devices include an overload limiter that cuts power when the hook load exceeds 5 tons, plus mechanical end stops for both cross‑travel and long‑travel. A 5 ton overhead crane is straightforward to install and comes with a low headroom design that maximizes the available vertical lifting space. Because many facilities upgrade from gantries to overhead cranes for improved safety and floor space, we offer complete installation and training services.
