What Are Workshop Cranes?

Workshop cranes are essential lifting devices used for raising, lowering, and moving heavy loads within confined spaces. Commonly known as engine cranes, shop cranes, or garage cranes, these tools are ideal for automotive repairs, machinery maintenance, material handling, and assembly tasks.

Types of Workshop Cranes Available

  • Mobile Gantry Cranes: Portable and easy to manoeuvre, these cranes are perfect for moving heavy loads around the workshop. They typically have lifting capacities ranging from 250kg to 5 tonnes and can be used both indoors and outdoors.
  • Folding Engine Cranes: Designed for automotive and maintenance applications, folding cranes save space when not in use and offer capacities up to 3,000kg.
  • Jib Cranes: Wall-mounted or pillar-mounted jib cranes provide a rotating arm for precise load positioning in a circular or semi-circular area. They are available in various load capacities and outreach lengths, making them suitable for both light and heavy-duty applications.
  • Manual Workshop Cranes: Operated by hydraulic or mechanical means, these cranes are suitable for lighter loads and offer precise control for delicate lifting tasks.
  • Electric Workshop Cranes: For higher productivity, electric models provide powered lifting and lowering, ideal for repetitive tasks and heavier loads.
