Our capability ranges from smaller industrial lifting systems through to heavy overhead crane applications.
Where an existing crane is already installed, we can first assess whether modernisation or refurbishment may provide a suitable long-term alternative to complete replacement.
Overhead Crane Refurbishment & Modernisation in Benoni
Many established industrial facilities operate older crane structures. Depending on condition, design and technical suitability, it may be possible to retain suitable parts of the existing crane while replacing obsolete mechanical and electrical equipment.
