EKKE Single-Girder Overhead Traveling Cranes with the New Demag EKDR Rope Hoist Optimized for Crane Applications

Single-girder overhead travelling cranes provide you with high-quality Demag technology at a particularly attractive price. They ensure maximum rigidity for a minimum deadweight. This keeps the load on the crane runway low, and a cost-effective design can be selected for the building. They also offer the benefits of outstanding crane geometry, resulting in exceptional travel characteristics. The new Demag DR rope hoist is of optimum design for crane applications. Therefore, the entire crane installations meets your demands for greater efficiency.
