65 YEARS DESIGNING AND MANUFACTURING CRANES — The commitment to being one step ahead has made us pioneers in the application of new technologies in the standard product. Manufacturing the components ourselves allows us to innovate offering advantages to our customers in terms of cost, production and safety. We are pioneers to include frequency inverters in all movements. We have recently developed the COREBOX: GH’s own intelligent control unit, which allows the crane operation to be monitored, even remotely.

THE DEMANDS OF OUR CUSTOMERS IS A GREAT MOTIVATION Working for leading companies in different sectors is challenging, but gives us great satisfaction. Customers know better than anyone what they require: quick responses and efficient solutions. The fact that they put their trust in us is therefore the most convincing endorsement.

Bridge cranes — These have a robust construction and a high level of standardisation. Very modular and adaptable to any need, with very reliable components and available for a wide range of applications. The optimized combination of the crane structures with the mechanical equipment for lifting cross travelling and long travelling movements allow the maximum use of spaces. Bridge cranes are divided into two groups according to their construction: SINGLE GIRDER BRIDGE CRANES The construction of standard cranes using a single girder makes them ideal for achieving the maximum use of spaces in...

OVERHEAD CRANES The cranes travel supported on 2 rails. SINGLE GIRDER OVERHEAD CRANES The preferred solution for most customers. Easy to integrate into the building structure. The most suitable for high capacity cranes. LIFTING CAPACITY: SINGLE GIRDER 1 - 20 t DOUBLE GIRDER 1 - 63 t Other capacities and spans are available on request. TWIN HOIST (up to 200 t) and customised open winches (up to 400 t). DOUBLE GIRDER OVERHEAD CRANES

SUSPENDED CRANES These cranes run suspended from rails, generally built into the roof of the building. SINGLE GIRDER SUSPENDED CRANES It is a good option when there is no possibility of building a supporting structure for a top running crane. It can have cantilevers to access difficult areas, and even carry out transfers of hoists between cranes. LIFTING CAPACITY: SINGLE GIRDER 1 - 20 t DOUBLE GIRDER 1 - 20 t DOUBLE GIRDER SUSPENDED CRANES SPAN: UP TO 39 m. Other capacities and spans are available on request. Up to 25 t in single and double girder options.

Gantry Cranes — GH is a world leader in the design and manufacture of gantry cranes with a large number and variety of applications. We adapt the manufacture of our gantry cranes to the needs and circumstances of each customer, always taking into account the type of work to be carried out and the load to be handled. The experience acquired since 1958 endorses us as specialists in gantry and semi-gantry cranes. Gantry cranes can be of two kinds of construction: SINGLE GIRDER GANTRY CRANES Single girder gantry cranes combine lightness and optimal use of space. DOUBLE GIRDER GANTRY CRANES...

GANTRY CRANES Gantry cranes, with legs on both sides, and running on floor level rails, are the solution for outdoor work, without needing to construct buildings. SINGLE GIRDER GANTRY CRANES LIFTING CAPACITY: SINGLE GIRDER 1 - 20 t DOUBLE GIRDER 1 - 63 t DOUBLE GIRDER GANTRY CRANES Other capacities and spans are available on request. TWIN HOIST (up to 200 t) and customised open winches (up to 400 t).

SEMI-GANTRY CRANES The semi-gantry cranes are supported by runways at different heights. The lower runway is on the ground, and the upper runway is on a runway beam attached to the structure of the building. The lower runway can be replaced by wheels of special material. SINGLE GIRDER SEMI-GANTRY CRANES They are a very practical solution when it is not necessary to cover the entire width of the building. LIFTING CAPACITY: SINGLE GIRDER 1 - 20 t DOUBLE GIRDER 1 - 63 t DOUBLE GIRDER SEMI-GANTRY CRANES SPAN: UP TO 34.5 m. Other capacities and spans are available on request. TWIN HOIST (up to...

Wall travelling jib cranes — Wall travelling jib cranes are a good solution to handle several work stations without having to cover the entire width of the building and there are mobility limitations at ground level. The design of these cranes can be adapted to specific layouts of runways in the building. Other capacities and arm lengths are available on request. Up to 10 t in single and double girder options.

SINGLE GIRDER WALL TRAVELLING CRANES The simplest and lightest solution for wall travelling cranes. DOUBLE GIRDER WALL TRAVELLING CRANES Recommended for higher capacities, and when maximum stability of the load is required.

CRANES BY TYPE OF GIRDER BOX GIRDERS Manufactured with steel plates welded together to achieve a rectangular section. Lighter beams, which reduces the loads transmitted to the building. The most suitable for high capacities and large spans. I-BEAMS Manufactured from commercial rolled profiles. Easy manufacture and faster delivery. The most suitable for low capacities and short spans. GH CRANES & COMPONENTS has optimised the design of the girders by combining the most advanced calculation programs and the experience of more than 65 years manufacturing cranes. Depending on the type of crane,...
