Gantry cranes
Manoeuvrable, flexible and cost-efficient.
A fixed crane system in your existing cleanroom may prove structurally impossible at times. Or you may prefer to be able to move the crane within your cleanroom. In that case, a mobile gantry crane offers an ideal solution. The manoeuvrable and cost-efficient alternative to a fixed crane structure. The lifting range of these cranes ranges from 250 kg to 2,5 ton.

Semiconductor industry
Need to move heavy semiconductor manufacturing equipment accurately, safely and efficiently? Or position light components in exactly the right place?
With over 25 years of experience in the semiconductor industry, you can count on lifting equipment that meets all the requirements. And keep particulate emissions to an absolute minimum in the process.

Hightech
Does your company supply components or parts with ‘cleanliness grade' 4 or 2? We design your lifting equipment so that your production process meets the often highly demanding requirements and specifications set by your partner(s).
At the same time, a cleanroom crane speeds up your process, helping you create greater efficiency and achieve higher profitability.

Food industry
In the food industry, everything revolves around food safety. Minimize the risk of potential microorganism formation and contamination with our hygienic cleanroom cranes.
Our cranes help you comply with laws and regulations, including the sectoral hygiene codes as set by, among others, the NVWA.

Biotechnology
Pharmaceutical and medical biotechnology processes demand the lowest possible levels of contamination. Preventing contamination is a priority. Process reliability and product safety are also equally important.
Our cleanroom cranes contribute to a safe and traceable process flow with parameters that can be adjusted in detail. They cause minimal to no contamination and prevent the risk of microorganism formation.

Battery industry
Cleanliness and safety are crucial in battery manufacturing. A cleanroom crane allows you to streamline your production process while ensuring that contamination dispersion is kept to a minimum.
Design choices can minimise the dispersion of particles such as dust and trapped contamination. With the right choice of materials, it is also possible to make your lifting equipment explosion-proof.

Aerospace
You need to be able to position or move aerospace objects carefully and appropriately. A non-contaminating and precise crane will help ease your R&D or production process.
Our lifting solutions are safe for use in developing the most sensitive parts, such as satellite components, robotic arms or sun shields.

Aviation
Lift critical aviation parts and components with extreme precision and minimal contamination. Ensuring that every single detail is correct.
Our cleanroom cranes are precise and leave no dust, liquid or paint particles behind. Therefore, cranes contribute significantly to reliability in terms of instruments and engines, etc.

Frequently Asked Questions
.jpg?width=674&height=568&name=FAQ%20674%20x%20568%20(1).jpg)
Why choose a gantry crane?
A gantry crane is flexible and movable, allowing it to be used in various locations and not restricted to one cleanroom.
The crane is easy to use, enabling users to quickly become accustomed to the equipment.
When moving between cleanrooms, it is important to adhere to cleanroom requirements.
What materials are possible?
Band and rope hoists lift weight by using Dyneema rope or band, a clean and easy-to-clean material that requires little maintenance and hardly attracts dirt.
Dyneema band is used for band hoists.
Dyneema fiber rope is used for rope hoists, which are larger because dyneema band Layers can be stacked on top of each other, but dyneema fiber rope cannot.
The choice depends on size, ISO class, type of cleanroom, and lifting weight. Therefore, the best outcome is discussed per situation.
What is the ideal situation for a gantry crane?
The ideal situation for a gantry crane is a smooth floor surface without obstacles, where the crane can reach any position.
A free, open space where the crane can move from A to B ensures optimal flexibility and efficiency.
What is the difference between a gantry crane and a jib crane/overhead crane?
The difference lies in mobility. A jib crane and overhead crane are fixed to a specific location, while a gantry crane is flexible and can move anywhere, providing optimal flexibility and efficiency.
What is the advantage of a mobile gantry crane?
A mobile gantry crane offers flexibility and mobility. This allows the crane to be easily moved to different locations, ensuring optimal efficiency and versatility in your lifting activities.
