Entirely Self-Supporting
No need for any X-bracing, building tie backs or kickers on any
configuration.
Ergonomically Justified
Reduce injuries while increasing productivity and with less effort.
Move your load on LodeRail with a 100:1 productivity ratio, e.g.,
an operator can start a 500 pound load moving with 5 pounds of force.
Over 100 billion dollars is paid annually by USA employers in direct

compensation and higher productivity translate into increased profits.
LodeRail: Economical, Efficient
Increased
Floor Space
Complete hook coverage under the crane reduces the need for vehicle
traffic, increasing valuable floor space for production.
Lower
labor costs
One person with a crane can precisely position and assemble parts
more efficiently and safely than three men using a forklift.
LodeRail: A Simple Solution
· Easy to install
Installation can usually be done with your own crew. Frames bolt
directly to most floors.
· Easy to extend or relocate
Unique all bolted construction and modular design makes it easy
to add sections or to disassemble and relocate.
A Complete System
The LodeRail crane is a complete system. The system includes the
runway structure, runway rails, festoon for the bridge and runway,
trolleys and even the bolts for the floor.
® Work Area Cranes
CraneVeyor is an innovator of work area crane systems. Over 20 years ago we designed and built the TransLifter line of underhung freestanding work area cranes, and in 1998 we integrated our experience into the enclosed track TranStation family of work area cranes. TranStations are pre-engineered, rated from 250 thru 4000 pounds, and are designed and priced to bring cranes to applications where cranes might or might not have been considered.
TranStation Features include:
- Enclosed steel track is low weight and high-strength with tapered rolling surface that stays clean, reduces wheel wear and provides lower rolling resistance.
- Trolleys and trucks have machined steel wheels with sealed, lifetime lubricated ball bearings. Wheels are tapered to match the track and reduce rolling resistance. Trucks have guide rollers.
- TranStation cranes are ergonomically justified, with a free moving system requiring approximately 1 pound to push 100 pounds, resulting in less effort, reduced injuries and increase productivity.
- Systems have up to 34' bridge lengths, to 30' runway spans and runway lengths as required.

TranStations are complete systems and include the runway structure/connections, runway rails, bridge, trolley, and bridge and hoist festoon electrification. Add a hoist and you're ready to install. The system is blast cleaned and coated with a primer and safety yellow enamel finish for an attractive, tough and durable surface.
