Double Girder Bridge Crane JDN Monocrane

Overhead Bridge Cranes

A bridge crane, also called an overhead crane, uses elevated parallel beams and a travelling hoist to move loads across a workspace in multiple directions. It is commonly used in manufacturing environments to lift steel, aluminium, copper and other raw materials.

JDN MONOCRANE designs and manufactures custom bridge cranes for Australian businesses, building every system to strict local engineering standards. Our cranes are engineered for safety, reliability and strong long-term performance.

If you need a bridge crane that delivers consistent lifting capability with reduced downtime, our team can help.

Single Girder vs Double Girder Bridge Cranes

Single and double girder bridge cranes achieve the same purpose but suit different operating conditions.

Single girder systems are a practical choice for lighter loads, shorter spans and workshops where headroom is limited. They deliver strong lifting performance with lower overall installation costs.

Double girder systems are engineered for higher capacities, longer spans and heavier-duty workflows. Their dual-beam structure provides greater stability, higher hook height and more flexibility for advanced lifting attachments.

Explore your options below and discover the design that matches your load, span and operational requirements.

How to Choose the Right Overhead Bridge Crane

Our customers come from many different industries from mining to construction, petrochemical, manufacturing, shipyards, automotive and more. At JDN MONOCRANE we understand there may be different obstacles whether it's budget constraints, strict compliance requirements or competitive pressures.

When choosing the right bridge crane for you, it comes down to understanding your load requirements, available headroom, building structure and workflow.

Start with your maximum load and how often the crane will operate. Confirm the required span, travel distance and any height limits that affect hook movement. Consider how the crane fits into your workflow and if you need features such as speed control, reduced sway, remote operation or automation. If you are replacing an older system, check if the runway, supports or power supply need upgrading.

A clear scope makes it easier to select the correct girder type, duty rating and technology package for long-term performance. Our experienced team is happy to assist in this process.

Hyperspeed

Hyperspeed improves travel and lifting efficiency by delivering faster operating speeds while maintaining controlled movement. This reduces cycle times and improves workflow productivity.

i-Glide

i-Glide minimises hook sway and stabilises load handling, allowing operators to place loads more accurately and work with greater confidence.

Planet

Planet provides real-time visibility of crane usage, operating hours and performance trends, helping maintenance teams plan servicing and reduce unplanned downtime.

Sentinel

Sentinel is a new technology monitoring key crane functions to detect issues early, improve reliability and support safer long-term operation.

Overhead Bridge Crane FAQs

Category

How do I know if I need a single or double girder bridge crane?

Single girder cranes suit lighter loads, shorter spans and areas with limited headroom.

Double girder cranes are better for heavier capacities, longer spans and applications needing higher hook height or specialised lifting attachments.

The right choice depends on your load, span, duty cycle and available building height.

What load capacities and spans are available for overhead bridge cranes?

JDN MONOCRANE can manufacture bridge cranes across a wide range of capacities and spans.

Systems are engineered to suit your exact requirements, whether you need a compact crane for a small workshop or a heavy-duty unit for large industrial environments.

Capacities and spans can be custom-built to meet Australian standards and your site conditions where needed.

How much headroom do I need for a bridge crane installation?

Required headroom depends on your girder type, building height and the hook height needed for your workflow. Single girder cranes work well in low-clearance areas, while double girder cranes offer higher lift but require more space.

If you're not sure our friendly team can help assess your building layout to confirm safe and efficient headroom requirements before design begins.

What is the typical lead time for a new bridge crane?

Lead times vary depending on crane size, complexity and current production schedules. As a local manufacturer, JDN MONOCRANE provides faster turnaround than overseas suppliers. Once your scope is confirmed, we provide a clear timeline covering design, manufacture and installation before we lock in.

Can bridge cranes be customised for unique workflows or restricted building layouts?

Yes! All JDN overhead bridge cranes can be custom-designed to suit your load requirements, available space, workflow and operating environment.

Our engineers are experienced in designing cranes for tight clearances, irregular building shapes, specialised lifting tasks and industry-specific applications. Just request a quote today.

How often do overhead bridge cranes need servicing or inspection?

Service frequency depends on usage and duty cycle. Most cranes require routine inspections at set intervals to comply with AS 2550.

However, regular maintenance helps extend component life, reduce downtime and keeps your crane operating safely. JDN MONOCRANE provides servicing and ongoing support as your long-term crane partners.
