Austin Overhead Crane Systems – What You Need To Know
|
Our highly skilled team of professionals at Austin Overhead Cranes will provide you with all the materials needed to understand your chosen crane system, and how to safely operate and maneuver the equipment. Here’s some cursory knowledge to get you started.
Overhead cranes are also commonly known as bridge cranes, and they consist of parallel runways with a traveling bridge that spans the gap. The lifting component is known as the hoist, which travels along the bridge. These are not the type of cranes you see at construction sites – Austin Overhead Cranes are primarily used for applications in which there is minimal downtime or efficiency. |

Overhead cranes slide from side to side or back and forth on the ceiling of your warehouse, garage, work space, etc. They can be very small or extremely large based on what it will be lifting and carrying.
The most common type of overhead cranes in Austin, TX, is known as the electrical overhead crane (EOT), and they are usually operated by using a radio/IR or a control pendant, or by an operator cabin that is already attached to the crane itself. Let’s forge ahead to find out all that Austin Overhead Cranes has to offer. |

Austin Overhead Cranes Maintenance
Just like inspections, it is very important to have your overhead crane regularly maintained in order to ensure it’s in top-shape working condition. Not only will regular maintenance help your parts continue to run smoothly, but it will prevent accidents from happening. Regular maintenance is crucial when it comes to owning your own overhead crane, and again, we have you covered.

Basic overhead crane maintenance usually includes ensuring that there are no damaged, loose, or broken parts on the hoist, trolley, electric systems, or runway. We check to make sure that your wire rope is seated and reeved in the drum grooves and verify that the bottom block is not twisted (no two lengths of wire rope should be touching). This is the preliminary equipment checkout, which also includes checking that nothing is close to open power sources as well as securing enclosures, no wires are pulled from bushings or strain reliefs, and we also verify that push-pendant controls are not damaged (we check for torn parts, cracks, or missing labels).
