How to Find the Right Crane Components

When an overhead crane or hoist goes down, every minute counts. As our Inside Sales Manager, Conner Davis explains, “In some situations, having the correct part can affect an entire production schedule. Getting it right on the first go can save days - if not weeks - of production.” The wrong or poor-quality replacement can turn a minor repair into a costly setback. “Trying to run a crane with something that’s incorrect or low-grade often causes more damage,” Davis says. “You end up needing more repairs and more downtime.”

Metal Finishing Plant is Safe After Emergency Rehab Crisis

A metal finishing plant in central Indiana was the scene of a catastrophic runway failure. When our emergency service technicians arrived, the bridge and spreader bar was hanging precariously over caustic dipping vats. One of the runways had broken loose and fallen. Caustic environments tend to increase the chances of equipment failure. A Runway survey, as part of a regular preventive inspection, could have possibly prevented this failure.

Galvanizing Plant in Muncie Indiana being evaluated by CraneWerks, Inc.

Harsh Environments: Choosing the Right Hoist

A galvanizer came to Electrolift because they had performance, safety, and downtime concerns with their existing hoists. Galvanizing applications are notorious for having issues with the mechanical load brake when there is a constant load on the hook and excessive heat is generated during long lifts causing premature failure. Constant inspections, downtime, contaminants in the oil, safety, and ongoing concerns of hoist failure proved to the galvanizer a new solution was required.

Successful Rehab After Hard Life Catches Up to 20-Ton Crane

Overhead cranes are the workhorse of any manufacturing or distribution facility. They are there to do the heavy lifting and keep the production floors safe and uncluttered. Often taken for granted, they aren’t appreciated till they start having issues. Heavy lifting and repetition create wear and tear on joints and other mechanical parts. Throw in multiple shifts, grime, and caustic operating conditions and they begin to show their age.
