Precast yards and concrete plants cast, strip, store and ship heavy panels, beams and pipe, and the gantry and overhead cranes that handle them run all shift. Kranes supplies yard gantry cranes, in-plant overhead cranes and the mobile cranes that load trucks and set precast on site, with service and parts for continuous duty. Tell us the element weights, the spans and the yard layout, and we quote lifting that moves product from form to truck to final position.
Precast and concrete lifting is continuous and heavy: panels, beams, columns, pipe and box culverts are cast, stripped, stored and shipped, and the cranes that handle them run every shift. Yard gantry cranes store and load product across a casting yard without permanent runway; in-plant overhead cranes feed the casting beds and finishing; and mobile cranes load the trucks and set the precast at the project site.
Kranes supplies yard gantry cranes, in-plant overhead cranes and the mobile cranes that move product from form to truck to final position, with the service and parts a continuous-duty operation needs. Precast runs to a production rhythm, so the lifting is specified for constant cycling and backed by maintenance that keeps it from becoming the bottleneck between the casting bed and the shipping yard.
Specifying precast lifting comes down to the element weights, the spans and the yard layout — where product is cast, stored and loaded. Tell Kranes those, and we quote the gantry, overhead and mobile cranes that move it through the whole cycle, sized for the heaviest panel or beam and the duty it runs at. On-site, the mobile crane that sets the precast is matched to the building and the access.
Continuous-duty cranes earn their keep on uptime, so inspection, certification and a stocked parts supply keep them cycling safely. Kranes documents cranes to CSA B167, services them on schedule and keeps hoists, wheels, brakes and parts on hand for constant duty. Tell us the element weights, the spans and the yard layout, and we quote lifting that moves product from form to truck to final position across Canada.
