Duty services: Selection of the appropriate duty cycle or service classification ensures that the components are durable enough to endure the load and usage requirements.
Choosing a Gantry System: Will you use a full gantry, a semi-gantry, or a portable gantry system? Is the gantry going to be moved on rails, track, or wheels?
Workers or other equipment operating near the gantry: Will there be workers or other equipment working near the gantry? Will any components require extra protection or a different orientation to avoid damage in the event of a collision?
Indoors/Outdoors: Will the crane be used both indoors and outdoors? On an outdoor gantry system, special paint processes, materials, and components may be necessary to endure the elements.
Crane power supply: Will a cable reel enough for power distribution, or will a more tailored solution be required? Will there be a power source nearby if it's a portable gantry system, or will you need a longer extension cord.
