Double girder cranes are often utilized for lifting capacity in excess of 10 tons and with spans of up to 120 feet. Double girder cranes are also recommended for high speeds and high duty cycle applications. Also ideal for cranes that require aerial walkways, cabs or other special equipment. Hoists can be bottom running or top running for additional hook height.

Monorail systems are used where lifting capacity is required in a limited area, such as a production line or small work cell. Monorail capacities are normally up to 5 Tons. Platnick sells both patented track and structural monorail systems.

Normally used to lift smaller loads, improve workstation efficiency, or frequent lifting. Jib cranes can be wall-mounted or free standing in a variety of capacities and designs.

Gantry cranes are a flexible design for overhead lifting systems used in applications where overhead runways are not practical. Typically used to move heavy loads or outdoor loads, gantry cranes can be single, girder, double girder, double leg, single-leg, and cantilever designs.

Box Beam Cranes are typically employed when the required span exceeds 60 feet (18.3M), or when the weight of a conventional gantry crane becomes a factor. These cranes can be provided in either single or double beam configuration, and are custom designed with CAD and FEA to cater to the span, clearance height, application, and any specific customer requirements.
