This type of overhead crane is used in small industries and for transporting materials, objects and loads with low volume and low width. Single bridge overhead crane is the best option for halls up to 20 meters and load capacity up to 10 tons, but it is possible to build this type of crane up to 40 meters.

The elevators are hung on the lower wing of the overhead crane and carry the load and transfer of material or equipment inside the hall or shed.
