Frequently asked questions about cranes and lifting technology

A gantry crane is a free-standing crane structure with two side supports and a crossbeam on which the load is moved by means of a trolley. SCHILLING manufactures these cranes from aluminium – for mobile, modular and lightweight lifting solutions.

The -10 means that the crane is supplied with a split beam.

For example, with article number 1311050-10, the 5m beam is delivered split into 3m and 2m.

No, that is not possible. A beam or double beam can only be divided once.

The delivery time for our standard cranes is approx. 7-10 working days. Custom made on request.

The crane can be retrofitted with a chassis (article 24001 or 24002). This allows the crane to be moved in an unloaded state (without a load attached).

Whenever you have a question about a crane, we always need to know the serial number and the year of manufacture so that we can identify the crane model.

We will then be happy to provide you with an offer for spare parts or suitable accessories.

To subsequently provide the correct documentation, we always require the serial number and year of production.

In order to be able to prepare quotations for an individual and customised solution, we need as much information as possible: e.g. description of the application area, a sketch of the crane, dimensions, photo of the application area, general background information.

Depending on the crane type (small / medium / high), the total heights range from approx. 1,700 mm to approx. 4,400 mm.

Of course, lower heights or heights up to over 6m in height are also possible in the form of a customized crane.

Depending on the crane type, the load capacity in the standard range is between 1,000 kg and 3,000 kg.

In order to also realise lifting capacities of up to 6,000 kg, different crane types can be combined depending on the application.

Please send us an enquiry to mail@schilling-fn.de or via the contact form. We will then provide you with an offer as soon as possible.
 

250 kg for series production. Less or more is possible -> custom made.

The crane can be used more flexibly with a split beam (at least one of the two beam pieces can also be used as a single beam) and can also be transported more easily. The benefits are:

• easier in daily handling
• easy assembly and dismantling

Our standard beam length is between 4,000 mm and 8,000 mm depending on the crane model.

The beams are generally also available with shorter beam lengths, e.g. 2,000 mm and 3,000 mm, or shortened to your desired dimension, e.g. 3,650 mm.

By using the horizontal adjuster, the usable length of the gantry crane can be infinitely variable adjusted between the side frames. The track width of the aluminium beam is variable. This represents a clear added value as well as a high flexibility for the user.

Yes, it is included.

No, this is an accessory item and has to be ordered to match the crane.
