Description
GIS KB light crane systems are designed for efficient and safe material handling in different industrial environments. The modular design allows easy installation in both new and existing facilities.
Benefits in a nutshell:
Lifting capacity up to 2000 kg
Quiet, easy movement – polymer wheels
Manual or electric travel
Modular design – can be tailored as needed
Suits low and confined spaces
Fast delivery and service
Applications:
Workstation cranes
Engineering workshops and assembly lines
Logistics centres and warehouses
GIS KB offers Swiss quality that is easy to use and maintain. The system grows with your needs, now and in the future.
Light crane systems: profile monorails
A monorail made from profile is an excellent solution when the load is carried along one specific route. A profile track can have both curves and switches where the route branches in different directions.
The advantages of a profile monorail are easy installation, light construction, quiet operation and ease of use. At some sites, the problems caused by dust and dirt collecting on the flanges of a normal I-beam track do not affect this crane type, as the running surfaces are inside the profile.
Light crane systems: single-girder and double-girder profile overhead cranes
A profile overhead crane can be used to move loads ergonomically and reliably. Longer spans or heavier loads require a stronger profile. The benefits include easy operation and, at best, a working area that covers the whole room.

Light crane systems: jib cranes
The profile system makes it possible to build various light jib cranes. The structure does not always have to be a heavy I-beam jib: a profile weighing ten kilos per metre does the job brilliantly.

Light crane systems: gantry cranes
The profile system also allows various light gantries that bring a movable lifting point to wherever it is needed.
