BMH Single Beam Semi Gantry Crane

What is this?

The single beam semi gantry crane is a single main beam gantry crane with one leg running on a ground rail and the other leg running on a rail mounted on the building column. It uses an electric hoist to lift and lower loads and move left and right, achieving handling of small to medium-sized materials, equipment, workpieces, and more. If your workshop has limited building height and cannot accommodate a standard overhead crane, and you have a limited budget with capacity needs between 1 ton and 20 tons, this product is designed for you.

Why choose a single beam semi gantry crane over a double beam semi gantry crane?

Compared to double beam semi gantry cranes, the single beam semi gantry solution offers three core advantages:

First, lower investment cost – simplified single girder structure, lighter self-weight, reducing cost by 30%-40%, especially suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises with limited budgets.

Second, shorter installation time – lower workshop load requirements, simpler rail installation, shortening installation time by about 50%.

Third, easier maintenance – compact electric hoist design with fewer failure points, lower daily maintenance costs.

Solve small to medium-capacity handling problems in semi-confined spaces with less investment.

What can we do for you?

We understand that every customer has different workshop structures, different capacity requirements, and different working areas. Therefore, we offer flexible customization options: lifting capacity from 1 ton to 20 tons; span from 6 meters to 16 meters; control options of pendant or remote radio; speed options of single speed, dual speed, or VVVF. Whether your workshop is old with low clearance or compact in space, we can match the most suitable span and lifting height.
