Indoor crane systems are specialized lifting equipment designed for indoor operations. They are widely used in various industries and projects, such as manufacturing, warehousing, construction, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), etc. Indoor crane systems can improve productivity, safety and efficiency of the work processes, as well as optimize the use of space and resources.
There are different types of indoor crane systems, each with its own features, advantages and disadvantages. The main types of indoor crane systems are:
Indoor overhead crane: An indoor overhead crane is a type of bridge crane that runs on rails or beams mounted on the ceiling or walls of the building. It consists of a bridge girder, a trolley, a hoist and a control system. The bridge girder spans the width of the building and supports the trolley and the hoist. The trolley moves along the bridge girder and carries the hoist, which can lift and lower the load. The control system can be operated by a pendant, a remote or a cabin.
Indoor gantry crane: An indoor gantry crane is a type of portal crane that runs on rails or wheels on the ground. It consists of two or more legs, a bridge girder, a trolley, a hoist and a control system. The legs support the bridge girder, which spans the width of the working area and supports the trolley and the hoist. The trolley moves along the bridge girder and carries the hoist, which can lift and lower the load. The control system can be operated by a pendant, a remote or a cabin.

Indoor Overhead Crane vs Indoor Gantry Crane
The main differences between an indoor overhead crane and an indoor gantry crane are:
An indoor overhead crane requires a strong and stable ceiling or wall structure to support the rails or beams, while an indoor gantry crane does not.
An indoor overhead crane has more headroom and floor space than an indoor gantry crane, as it does not have legs that occupy the ground.
An indoor overhead crane is more suitable for large-scale and heavy-duty lifting operations than an indoor gantry crane, as it has higher load capacity and span.
The main similarities between an indoor overhead crane and an indoor gantry crane are:
Both are flexible and adaptable to different working environments and conditions.
Both can be customized according to the specific needs and requirements of the customers.
Both can be equipped with various lifting devices and accessories, such as hooks, magnets, grabs, clamps, etc.
Applications and Benefits of Indoor Crane Systems
Indoor crane systems can handle various types of loads, such as materials, products, components, tools, etc., with high precision and efficiency.
Indoor crane systems can reduce labour intensity and fatigue, as well as prevent accidents and injuries caused by manual handling.
Indoor crane systems can improve workflow and logistics, as well as save time and cost.
Indoor crane systems can enhance quality control and inspection, as well as facilitate maintenance and repair.
Indoor crane systems are versatile and efficient lifting solutions for various indoor environments. They have different types, applications and benefits for different industries and projects. Choosing the right type of indoor crane system depends on several factors, such as the size, weight and shape of the load; the available space and structure of the building; the budget and preference of the customer; etc. Therefore, it is important to consult us before purchasing or installing an indoor crane system.
