Portal Type

BLOCK LIFTING SYSTEM PORTAL TYPE

  • Portal block lifting systems are used where the crane rails are installed on the hall floor
  • Similar to bridge cranes, portal cranes generally cover smaller track widths (span widths) up to approx. 20m
  • If possible from the structural point of view, a lifting system in bridge construction is to be preferred to the version with a portal as it provides a better utilisation of the space and thus storage capacity
