Monorail Cranes
Talk with a Crane Expert
Streamline Material Movement Between Work Areas
When your material handling process follows a predictable route, a monorail system can simplify load transfers while making better use of your available space.
✓ Efficient Material Flow: Move loads between workstations or production processes along a consistent route.
✓ Flexible Track Layouts: Incorporate curves and switches to route loads around equipment and accommodate your facility layout.
✓ Clear Floor Space: Keep material movement overhead without relying on floor-level handling equipment.
Monorail Crane Configurations
Monorail systems can be supported in different ways, depending on building structure, available floor space, and material handling requirements.
Ceiling-Supported Monorails
Mounted overhead, these systems keep floor space clear of support columns while allowing loads to move between work areas.
Freestanding Monorails
Supported by independent columns, freestanding systems offer an alternative when the building structure can’t support the crane or ceiling mounting isn’t practical.
Custom Track Layouts
Straight sections, curves, and compatible switches can be configured to connect work areas and route loads around existing equipment.
Designed Around Your Material Handling Process
Whether connecting workstations or navigating around equipment, RMH Systems designs monorail cranes with track layouts and support configurations tailored to your facility.
Lifting Capacity
Load weight, dimensions, and handling requirements determine the appropriate crane and hoist capacity.
Track Layout
Straight runs, curves, and switches are planned around the route loads need to travel.
Structural Support
Building capacity, mounting options, and available floor space influence how the system is supported.
Available Clearance
Ceiling height, equipment obstructions, and required lifting height affect track placement.
Hoists & Controls
Hoist selection, travel requirements, and operator controls are matched to the application.
Duty Cycle
Lifting frequency and operating conditions help determine the appropriate equipment.
