1. Introduction

What Is a 5 Ton Gantry Crane?

A 5 ton gantry crane is a versatile lifting solution designed to handle heavy loads up to 5 metric tons (10,000 lbs). It consists of a horizontal beam (bridge) supported by two vertical legs that move along rails or wheels, allowing precise material handling in workshops, warehouses, construction sites, and shipping yards.

Why Choose a 5 Ton Gantry Crane?

✔ Heavy-Duty Lifting – Ideal for machinery, steel coils, containers, and industrial materials.
✔ Space Efficiency – No permanent installation needed (unlike overhead cranes).
✔ Mobility Options – Fixed, portable, or mobile models for different work environments.
✔ Cost-Effective – More affordable than large overhead cranes with similar capacity.
