Every workplace has different lifting and material-handling requirements.
Cranetec can assess your facility, workflow and lifting application before recommending a suitable steel or aluminium light crane system.
Our modular systems may be configured as:
The modular design allows the crane structure, profiles, and components to be configured to suit your production area and operational requirements.
A light crane system is a modular overhead lifting solution designed for accurate and efficient handling of lighter loads within a defined working area.
These systems commonly use steel or aluminium profiles, supported by the building structure or a freestanding frame. A hoist and trolley travel along the crane bridge or monorail, allowing operators to lift and position materials safely and efficiently.
Light crane systems are commonly used in:
They are particularly useful where frequent, controlled load movement is required without installing a larger conventional overhead crane.
Cranetec supplies both steel and aluminium light crane systems.
The most suitable material will depend on the lifting capacity, span, operating frequency, installation environment and structural requirements of your facility.
Aluminium crane profiles are lightweight and can provide smooth, low-resistance movement.
Their lower deadweight may also reduce the load placed on the supporting structure.
Aluminium systems can be suitable for applications requiring:
Steel light crane systems offer a robust, durable option for demanding industrial environments.
They may be suitable where the application requires greater structural strength, longer spans or heavier lifting capacities within the system’s design limits.
Cranetec can assess your application and recommend whether steel or aluminium is the more appropriate option.
A monorail crane system moves a hoist along a fixed track, allowing materials to travel along a defined straight, curved or customised route.
Monorails are useful for moving loads between specific workstations, production areas, or processing points.
Cranetec can custom-design monorail systems to suit your facility, available space and material flow.
Available options may include:
Depending on the selected design and application, systems may be configured for capacities up to 2,000 kg.
All capacities and structural requirements must be confirmed during the design and site-assessment process.
Light crane systems can be installed in several configurations.
A ceiling-mounted system is suspended from a suitable structural element of a building.
This configuration keeps the floor clear and can provide broad coverage across the working area.
The existing building structure must be professionally assessed before installation.
Where the building structure cannot support the crane, a freestanding system can be installed using purpose-built floor-mounted columns and support structures.
Freestanding systems can also be useful where:
Cranetec can assess the available space and recommend an appropriate support configuration.
Light crane systems provide several operational advantages.
A properly designed crane system can help operators move materials more accurately and efficiently between work areas.
Smooth trolley movement and controlled lifting can reduce manual handling requirements and physical strain on workers.
Modular profiles and components can be configured to suit different room dimensions, workstations and production layouts.
Ceiling-mounted systems provide lifting coverage without placing permanent crane structures across the working floor.
Steel and aluminium profiles are designed to support controlled trolley and hoist movement along the required path.
Depending on the system, modular crane components may allow future modifications or extensions when business requirements change.
Light crane systems can often be installed with less structural complexity than larger conventional overhead cranes, subject to the specific facility and design.
Selecting a light crane system involves more than choosing a lifting capacity.
The system must suit the facility, support structure, workflow and operating environment.
Cranetec will consider factors such as:
Following an assessment, our team can recommend a crane arrangement that supports your operational needs.
Light crane and monorail systems can be fitted with different hoist and control options.
These may include:
The appropriate configuration will depend on the load, lifting frequency, travel distance and operating environment.
Cranetec provides a complete service from initial consultation through to installation and ongoing support.
Our process may include:
All structural, operational and technical requirements must be assessed before manufacturing and installation.
Regular inspections and maintenance help support the safe and reliable operation of light crane and monorail systems.
Cranetec provides servicing, inspections, repairs and upgrades for crane systems and associated lifting equipment.
Our services may include:
Planned maintenance can help identify wear or faults before they result in equipment failure or production delays.
An unexpected crane or hoist fault can interrupt production and create operational and safety concerns.
Cranetec provides 24-hour breakdown support for cranes, monorails and hoists.
Our technicians can investigate mechanical, electrical and control-system faults and recommend the repairs required to restore operation.

From the initial site assessment through to installation and ongoing servicing, Cranetec provides a single point of contact for your lifting system requirements.
A light crane system is a modular overhead lifting system designed to safely and efficiently move lighter loads across a defined working area.
It may use steel or aluminium profiles and can be ceiling-mounted, freestanding or configured as a monorail.
The capacity depends on the profiles, span, support structure, hoist and overall system design.
Cranetec’s monorail and light crane systems may be configured for capacities up to 2,000 kg, subject to engineering and application requirements.
Neither material is automatically better for every application.
Aluminium offers lower weight and smooth manual movement, while steel may provide greater strength for more demanding applications.
The best option depends on the required capacity, span, operating frequency and environment.
Yes, provided the existing building structure is suitable.
If the structure cannot support the system, a freestanding floor-mounted crane structure may be considered.
A monorail moves a hoist along a fixed track or route.
A light bridge crane uses a moving bridge to provide wider coverage across a rectangular working area.
Yes. Depending on the system design, monorail tracks may be configured with straight, curved or customised routes.
Yes. Light crane and monorail systems can be fitted with electric chain hoists or other suitable lifting equipment, depending on the required capacity and duty.
Yes. Cranetec provides inspections, preventive maintenance, hoist servicing, repairs, upgrades and 24-hour breakdown support.
Pricing depends on the capacity, span, track length, support structure, hoist, controls, installation requirements and site conditions.
A site assessment is generally required before an accurate quotation can be provided.
