The gantry crane is a piece of lifting equipment used for handling heavy loads both indoors and outdoors. Unlike traditional overhead travelling cranes, which rest on beams or building structures, gantry cranes are mounted on ground rails or can be wheeled, giving them great installation flexibility.
It is widely used in shipyards, prefabrication plants, outdoor storage areas, metal fabrication workshops and logistics warehouses.
