Correctly positioning a Mobile crane gantry
A mobile gantry is designed to be positioned above the load required to be lifted, the load is then attached to the lifting device and can be raised off the ground and re-positioned across the beam if necessary, however, it should be noted that the complete gantry system (framework) should on no account be moved on its castors whilst under load, this is very dangerous and can cause the whole system to become unbalanced and tip over.
Mobile lifting gantry systems are utilised in a vast range of industries, some are used frequently on a daily basis and some may only be used occasionally. These systems are commonly seen in factories, small and large, manufacturing plants, and in warehouses to aid in loading and unloading objects in different areas, or to raise objects off the ground for maintenance or to complete the production of the item; another place where mobile gantries may be often seen is in car garages where they are used to lift out car engines.
