Crane Lifting Equipment | 0.5t–600t Industrial Solutions

A davit crane is a compact, often portable lifting device consisting of a vertical mast anchored to a base or socket, and an adjustable horizontal boom (jib) that pivots at the mast top. Originally used on ships for lowering lifeboats, modern davit cranes are widely applied in industrial facilities, utility stations, and confined space entry points for lifting moderate loads (typically up to 1.5 tons) where a full‑size crane would be impractical. The davit crane can be floor‑mounted, wall‑mounted, or installed into a portable concrete base block, and the boom can be rotated 360 degrees manually or via a powered rotation drive. Lifting is performed by a manual ratchet winch, an electric chain hoist, or a pneumatic hoist attached to the boom tip. Davit cranes excel in applications such as lifting valve actuators in petrochemical plants, raising submersible pumps out of manholes, loading equipment onto rooftops, and retrieving heavy components from below‑deck compartments on vessels. Because they are easily disassembled, portable davits can be transferred between multiple socket points located around a facility, reducing the need for multiple cranes. Safety features include shear pins or overload clutches to prevent overloading, and boom stop pins to limit rotation.
