OVERHEAD LIFTING SOLUTIONS
THE RIGHT CRANE STARTS WITH THE APPLICATION
No two facilities move material exactly the same way. Capacity, span, lift height, duty cycle, building structure, production flow and safety requirements all influence the right crane system.
HSI works with customers to identify the equipment and configuration that fits the application, from straightforward hoist installations to complete engineered overhead crane systems.

ENGINEERED FOR THE APPLICATION
THE RIGHT CRANE IS MORE THAN A CAPACITY NUMBER
Selecting the right overhead crane requires more than knowing how much weight needs to be lifted. The entire application influences the equipment, structure, controls and configuration.
HSI evaluates how the crane will actually be used so the finished system supports safe operation, efficient material movement and long-term reliability.
DISCUSS YOUR APPLICATION →01
Capacity
The weight of the load and required safety factors determine the crane’s rated capacity.
02
SPAN & COVERAGE
The area that must be served influences runway length, bridge span and overall system layout.
03
LIFT HEIGHT
Available building height and required hook travel determine how the hoist and bridge should be configured.
04
DUTY CYCLE
How often and how intensely the crane operates affects equipment class, components and expected service life.
05
FACILITY STRUCTURE
Existing building steel, floor conditions and available support determine how the crane system can be installed.
06
CONTROLS & OPERATION
Pendant, radio and automated controls can be selected around operator needs, workflow and safety requirements.
07
SAFETY & ENVIRONMENT
Environmental conditions, surrounding equipment and personnel access all influence system design and safeguards.
08
FUTURE REQUIREMENTS
Planning for future capacity, production changes or facility expansion can help prevent premature system limitations.
INSTALLATION & LIFECYCLE SERVICE
SUPPORT THAT CONTINUES AFTER INSTALLATION
A crane system is a long-term investment, and its performance depends on what happens after installation. HSI supports overhead lifting equipment throughout its service life with inspection, maintenance, repair, testing and modernization services.
That continuity means the same team that understands your application can help keep the equipment safe, reliable and productive as your operation changes.
