Why Every Overhead Lifting Solution Is Customized

Overhead lifting solutions such as cranes and hoists are immensely popular in manufacturing and warehousing operations. Overhead material handling devices are made of extremely durable, heavy-duty, and long-lasting materials. Often remaining in service for decades, these systems are engineered for a longer lifespan and feature fewer wear and service points than other floor-based transport equipment options. Additionally, overhead lifting solutions offer the benefit of space-saving. Nevertheless, there is a growing trend of customized material handling solutions as they offer various options for making tweaks and changes to the equipment according to your needs and requirements. But overhead lifting solutions often come in so many options that they’re as good as customized. Let’s find out how.

We, at Conco, offer a wide range of overhead lifting solutions allowing you to make a number of changes to fit your requirements. Our line of overhead lifting solutions includes but is not limited to:

Articulating Jib

First and foremost, we give you the option to choose between the kinds of articulating jib cranes you want in your facility. You can go for one of the following:
