Cranes play a pivotal role across industries, streamlining the process of lifting and transporting heavy items. In situations where manual lifting is impractical, these powerful machines step in, bolstering efficiency and productivity. Overhead cranes, in particular, excel at tasks like transferring materials from trucks, shifting items across different sites, and maneuvering containers within shipyards or rail hubs. They're also instrumental in moving components along assembly lines. However, improper handling of overhead cranes can pose serious safety risks.
