Overhead Crane

An overhead crane is a large, powerful lifting device used in factories and warehouses to move heavy materials efficiently and safely. It consists of a horizontal beam, called a girder or rail, mounted above the workspace, with a trolley or hoist that travels along it. The hoist is equipped with a hook or another attachment to lift and lower heavy loads. Overhead cranes enhance productivity by allowing workers to move large, bulky items quickly and precisely across a designated area, reducing manual effort and improving safety in handling heavy objects.
