Production of Heavy Overhead Cranes


In Gummersbach-Herreshagen, everything is a bit bigger. The production of powerful double girder cranes requires space in all directions. Since 2011, ABUS has been manufacturing hundreds of heavy overhead travelling cranes with a load capacity of up to 120 t and a span of up to 42 m here every year. Series-production cranes, electric wire rope hoists and end carriages in configurations specially adapted to the customers requirements are manufactured on a production line which covers an area of over 60,000 m². The unique showroom and seminar centre ‘KranHaus’ is located in the immediate vicinity of the production plant.

The over 60,000 m² production plant for large series-production overhead travelling cranes and their components was completed in 2021.
