Why use a 30 ton Overhead Crane?

Heavy Lifting Power You Can Count On

When your business depends on moving large machinery, steel structures, or production equipment weighing 30 tons or more, standard cranes won’t cut it. Our 30-ton overhead gantry cranes are built to deliver safe, reliable performance in high-demand environments — from fabrication shops and power stations to aerospace hangars and rail depots.

These cranes are ideal when you need:

Greater load capacity without compromising on control
Custom spans or longer hook travel
Advanced safety and monitoring systems
Seamless integration with your existing crane runway

We don’t do off-the-shelf systems — each crane is designed around your exact site and lifting requirements. Whether you’re dealing with 30,000kg+ loads or looking to future-proof your capacity, we’ve got you covered.

Typical Use Cases for a 30,000kg Overhead Gantry Crane

Industry	Use Case & Why 30+ Ton is Ideal
Heavy Steel Fabrication	Handles oversized girders, welded bridge sections, and structural assemblies — a 30-ton+ crane delivers the lift strength and precision needed for high-tonnage fabrication projects.
Heavy Manufacturing	Ideal for moving large-scale industrial machinery, moulds, or tooling that exceed standard capacities — ensures safe, efficient material handling for production-critical assets.
Power Generation & Utilities	Moves large-scale transformers, turbine housings, and wind turbine parts — enables precise, controlled lifting for delicate, high-value equipment.
Rail & Transport Engineering	Capable of lifting full rail vehicle frames, undercarriages, and powertrain assemblies — essential for locomotive builds, maintenance, and depot operations.
Infrastructure & Civil Engineering	Supports the handling of pre-cast bridge segments, tunnel lining segments, and road decks — vital for large infrastructure and construction projects.
Aerospace & Defence	Facilitates lifting of large airframes, fuselage sections, and specialist tooling rigs — provides the control and capacity required in aerospace production environments.
