KBK overhung and extending cranes

Extending cranes

/ 07

  • KBK Ergo trolleys

    Optimum travel characteristics and high positioning accuracy also at high operating speeds

    • Quiet and smooth operation thanks to plastic wheels that are mounted in anti-friction bearings and lubricated for life
    • Smooth travel thanks to lateral guide rollers fitted as standard
    • Counter-pressure roller to accommodate kick-up forces, can be adjusted via eccentric fitting
    • Universal bolted connection to attach customer-specific handling solutions
  • Profile sections

    Freedom for planning with KBK Aluline profile sections

    • 6 KBK aluminium profile sections in 4 sizes
      • of which 2 sizes with internal conductor lines
    • Load capacity up to 2 t
    • KBK profile sections are tough and highly resistant to corrosion and impacts.
    • Different profile sections can be combined within one installation
      • Aluminium and steel can be combined
  • KBK Ergo suspensions

    Safely accommodate kick-up forces

    • Rigid design to transfer forces to the superstructure via rubber damping elements
    • Height adjustment with millimetre precision
    • Ideally suited for applications with manipulators, lifting axes, extending cranes or offset loads
    • Further suspensions in the KBK modular system
  • KBK crane end carriages

    Special end carriage design offering high system rigidity

    • Very smooth operation with low travel resistance
    • High positioning accuracy
    • Light-weight design
    • Optimum load distribution
    • Equipped with Ergo trolleys
  • KBK Ergo end caps

    Easily installed track end cap

    • Precise damping elements for every application:
      • rubber or cellular plastic buffers and shock absorbers
    • Optional power supply via the end caps
  • Integrated conductor line

    Safe and space-saving power supply

    • Reliable power supply and transfer of control signals
    • More scope due to reduced approach dimensions of the cranes
    • Additional headroom gain, as no cable sag
    • No risk of collisions (e.g. with forklifts) thanks to lack of cables
    • Several cranes can be installed on one crane runway
  • Overhang and extension function

    Extended working area beyond the span dimension

    • KBK overhung cranes
      • Load handling and positioning beyond the crane runway
      • Can also be used beneath ventilation ducts, radiant heaters, cables and pipes
    • KBK extending cranes
      • Girders can be extended on one or both sides beyond the width of the crane runway
      • Loads can be positioned even in almost inaccessible areas (e.g. between pillars and columns)
