Why Choose a Monorail Crane?

Monorail cranes are designed for linear lifting and material transport along a fixed path. This makes them perfect for production workflows, assembly lines, and confined spaces where space-saving, reliable lifting is essential.

Key benefits include:

  • Compact design that fits into existing facilities
  • Flexible layouts — straight runs, curves, or switch tracks
  • Lower cost and easier installation compared to full bridge cranes
  • Ideal for repetitive or process-driven lifting applications
  • Available in a wide range of capacities and configurations

Built with World-Class Components

Because Granada Cranes is independent of any single manufacturer, we select the best parts for your monorail crane from trusted global suppliers, including:

  • SWF Krantechnik Hoists – chain and wire rope options
  • OMIS Hoists – precision-engineered rope hoist systems
  • Stahl Hoists – robust, versatile lifting technology
  • Liftket Hoists – reliable, compact electric chain hoists

This flexibility means your crane is tailored with the right hoist, control system, and safety features for your operation, not a one-size-fits-all setup.
