Adapter Cranes

Boost Your Operational Efficiency with High-Quality Adapter Cranes

Adapter cranes, especially our GLK articulated trolleys, offer outstanding corrosion resistance thanks to electrolytically galvanized steel components. These cranes are ideal for use in wet rooms and aggressive environments, delivering a durable and reliable solution for your lifting needs.

Bolt-on beam suspensions and a design that avoids skewing from cross-traverse forces improve safety and efficiency.
Available with manual travel or electric travel, with single- or two-speed models.
Custom power supply systems and controls available on request to match your specific requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

An adapter crane—often based on articulated trolleys—allows you to combine with on-site I-beams to create a cost-effective, fully functional ceiling crane. It is ideal for handling loads in industrial and production environments.

High corrosion resistance means that all steel parts—like on our GLK models—are electrolytically galvanized. This protects against rust and corrosion, especially in damp or chemically aggressive environments, significantly extending service life.

Consider your environment’s requirements: load capacity, required lifting height and load type. Also decide between manual and electric travel depending on speed and efficiency needs.

Compliance with standards such as EN 13001 and relevant DGUV/VDE regulations ensures safety. Bolt-on suspensions and the special design help prevent trolley skewing, further increasing operational safety.

Perform regular inspections, check fasteners, lubricate moving parts and test electrical components (if fitted). Proper routine maintenance preserves performance and safety.

Yes. Adapter cranes are designed for easy integration into existing environments and are particularly useful where a flexible, cost-effective lifting solution is required.
