  • Capacity where there is demand
Mobilecrane WK I

Challenges in logistics

  • Handling heavy goods, pallets and large containers (50-1000 kg)
  • Move material between different storage areas and repacking stations
  • Changing flows of goods require flexible workstation configurations
  • Ergonomic strain during manual handling of heavy parcels and pallets
  • Various logistics areas occasionally require crane support
  • Seasonal fluctuations in the material flow

Why mobilecranes are ideal for logistics

  • One crane for all areas: Higher capacity utilization instead of fixed assignment to stations
  • Flexible positioning: use the crane wherever it is needed
  • Adaptation to goods flows: support follows the current logistics capacity utilization
  • Ergonomic relief: safe handling of heavy goods and pallets
  • Economical solution: Lower investment than several range cranes

Technical advantages for logistics environments

  • Robust construction: durable use in intensive logistics environments
  • Smooth operation: controlled movements even with heavy load carriers
  • Various load capacities: For packages from 80kg-1000kg
  • Low-maintenance technology: internal guide and robust design minimize downtime
  • Compact design: Fits between typical storage and repacking areas

Typical applications in logistics

  • Repacking stations: Moving material between different load carriers
  • Palletizing: Picking and depalletizing goods on pallets
  • Material flow: Handling heavy goods between incoming goods, warehouse and dispatch
  • Order picking: support for heavy or bulky items
  • Intermediate storage: moving goods between different processing steps
  • Quality control: Handling heavy goods for testing and inspection

Flexibility for changing requirements

  • Seasonal adjustment: crane follows fluctuating flows of goods
  • Layout changes: Flexibly adaptable for warehouse conversions or new workstations
  • Peak demand: Additional crane capacity where it is needed
  • Different types of goods: from small parts to heavy industrial goods
  • Future-proof: keeping pace with logistics optimizations or expansions

Ergonomics and employee health

  • Easy on the back: heavy parcels and pallets do not have to be lifted manually
  • Safe handling: controlled movements reduce the risk of injury
  • Less fatigue: Employees stay productive longer during logistics work
  • Improved quality of work: more relaxed working thanks to ergonomic support
  • Healthy workplaces: Prevention of musculoskeletal disorders

Profitability for logistics companies

  • Higher crane utilization: One crane serves different logistics areas
  • Reduced handling times: Ergonomic support accelerates material flow
  • Lower medical costs: fewer absences due to physical overload
  • Flexible capacities: Adaptation to fluctuating logistics requirements
  • Immediate savings on foundation costs: no ground work required

Frequently asked questions about mobile cranes in logistics

Is the crane suitable for different types of logistics goods?

Yes, thanks to the different load capacities, the crane can be used for a wide range of logistics tasks – from heavy parcels to industrial load carriers.

Can the crane switch between different storage areas?

Yes, with an optional trolley, the crane can be used flexibly between the incoming goods area, repacking stations and dispatch area. The crane can also be moved by forklift.

How often can the crane move between locations each day?

With mechanical chassis for occasional changes, with hydraulic chassis even several times a day. We recommend the hydraulic system for frequent logistics processes.

Is the crane also suitable for smaller logistics companies?

Smaller companies in particular benefit from the flexibility, as one crane can serve different logistics areas instead of separate solutions for each area.

Does the crane also work in dusty storage environments?

Yes, the internal trolley guide and robust design protect all moving parts from dust and ensure constant functionality even in intensive logistics environments.
