Double Girder Overhead Cranes are most frequently applied in: 

  • Capacities over 15 tons
  • Spans of 60 ft or greater

 The typical advantages of double girder overhead cranes are: 

  • Higher hook lift, since the hook can be pulled up between the main girders
  • Extremely rigid box girder construction and durable trolley design are well suited for heavy service applications
  • They are also highly suitable where the crane needs to be fitted with walkways, crane lights, cabs, magnet cable reels or other special equipment.

 The typical disadvantages of double girder overhead cranes are: 

  • Higher cost
  • Higher dead weight
  • Reduced hook approaches
