For area-covering goods transport up to 2000 kg GISKB hollow profiles made of steel are used. Depending on the lifting capacity, span width and transport route different profile sizes can be chosen. These can be combined with each other as crane tracks or crane bridges. Crane and cross travel is carried out manually or electrically (stepless). Trolleys with plastic rollers ensure low-noise and smooth-running moving of loads. As lifting device serves a GIS electric chain hoist. Due to the modular design GIS KB crane systems are easy to plan and install. All components are screwable. This allows subsequent...

LINEAR GOODS HANDLING Monorails allow an individual line for the connection of several working stations. Via track switches, bends, interlocking devices and turntables the workpiece is moved from one processing procedure to another. Trolleys with plastic rollers ensure low-noise and smooth-running moving of loads – manually or electrically (stepless). YOUR BENEFITS Due to the combination of bends and track switches, offset working stations can be approached very precisely in the workflow. The electric tug with frequency inverter ensures a soft start and nonswinging transport of loads. In order...

USE Compared to traditional structural steel beams the GISKB crane system with hollow profiles has the major advantage that the treads of the profiles are significantly better protected from dust. In this way the plastic rollers of the trolleys maintain their quiet running properties and are durable. In a long run, manual moving of the electric chain hoist and crane bridge can be carried out effortlessly and precisely. Due to their numerous advantages such as modularity, lightweight construction, flexibility, dust protection and simple installation GISKB crane systems are used in various industries....

Zinc-plated version Detached system As a standard, GISKB hollow profiles are delivered with the primer RAL 7035. For the food industry, the chemical industry or for waste water treatment plants, where special demands are placed on corrosion resistance, profiles are hot-dip galvanised. All screws and components are as standard galvanised. In the case of ceilings which are either too high or have insufficient support, a detached system is recommended. Installation is carried out by fixing supports to the floor. Crane tracks and crane bridges can be easily mounted to the longitudinal beams or crossbeams...
