Bridge Crane Tracking System
What Is a Bridge Crane Tracking System?
A bridge crane tracking system is a solution that monitors, from one panel, the operating status, running hours and faults of bridge (overhead) cranes — the main lifting backbone of a production site. It aims to reduce unplanned downtime on high-tonnage, continuously running bridge cranes.
Why Tracking Matters on Bridge Cranes
Bridge cranes are usually the line's main lifting equipment; when they stop, production largely stops. High tonnage and continuous cycling increase brake and gearbox wear. Running-hours and signal tracking make this wear visible.
Data Monitored
- Operating status and running hours
- Current, speed and temperature signals
- Fault and alarm notifications
- Heavy-usage tracking on double-girder systems
Installation on Existing Bridge Cranes
Hoistack connects brand-independently to your bridge crane's existing panel; no new crane is needed and installation doesn't stop production.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are double-girder bridge cranes monitored?
+
Yes. Single- and double-girder bridge cranes are monitored brand-independently; data is collected on one panel.
Is it suitable for high-tonnage cranes?
+
Yes. With running-hours, current and temperature data, early warning is provided on heavily loaded bridge cranes.
