 THE SINGLE BEST ALTERNATIVE TO OTHER LIFTING METHODS

No Stability Concerns
Because the load is lifted directly under its frame, an SB Series gantry crane can lift loads without the stability concerns
associated with boom cranes. Compare this to the stability-limited rated loads or factory-calculated capacity charts that
operators of crawler cranes, all-terrain cranes, rough-terrain cranes, reach stackers and forklifts need to determine the
maximum safe load for working and traveling speeds. With an SB Series gantry crane, you won’t need to worry about
misinterpreted charts or about substantial lifting-time preparation. SB gantry cranes also require less operator training, and
you’ll benefit from reduced load damage expenses.

Pick & Carry Operations

Pick and carry operations are easy for an SB Series gantry crane, which allows you to operate on a variety of surfaces
— from concrete and asphalt to unimproved dirt and gravel. Without the stability concerns associated with boom cranes,
you’ll also have increased efficiency and productivity while enjoying an extra margin of safety.

Traversing Capabilities
Reach stackers and forklift cranes are good at handling loads of certain sizes. The SB Series gantry crane, on the other hand,
can be customized to lift your material based on specifics such as width and height. And once it’s lifted, the SB gantry crane
offers better maneuverability for accurate load placement.

Flexibility Indoors and Outdoors

As an alternative lifting solution, SB Series gantry cranes offer impressive cost savings. Compared to overhead cranes
or rail-system cranes, SB gantry cranes reduce the amount of money you’ll need to spend on a building’s foundation or
infrastructure. The SB gantry crane can be fitted to your existing facility, and you’ll have the additional flexibility of using
the machine indoors and outdoors, depending on your needs. This mobility gives you additional functionality. Rather than
requiring you to adjust your operation to suit fixed equipment, we design and build our machines to suit the unique needs
of your business.

Structural Integrity
Shuttlelift’s SB Series gantry crane and its sister SL and ISL Series mobile gantry cranes provide unique lifting solutions, and
we’ve designed them to structurally withstand heavy loads better than most through our articulated pivot trunnion, which
allows the crane’s frame to flex without putting additional strain on its structure. With our cranes, you can work in a variety
of site conditions and over uneven terrain with a load while keeping that load safe and secure.

Tandem Lifting
We’ve gone a step even farther with the SB Series. With its single-beam structure, an SB gantry crane has a tighter turning
radius than a traditional gantry crane when picking in tandem. You can use two SB gantry cranes to lift in tandem, or a single
machine can work in conjunction with other mobile gantry cranes or other lifting equipment.

IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO SHOW THEM ALL.

“Our SB Series gantry cranes provide versatility, reliability and Unlike competitive lifting methods, the new SB Series

the same with a traditional gantry, for example, you
would need a spreader bar frame to bring the unit
to a single pick point. And now, with manufactured
components being built to longer lengths, it has
become increasingly common to transport these
items by tandem lifting. Shuttlelift’s SB Series
gantry cranes also can be used in conjunction with
a conventional rubber-tired gantry crane that may
already be on site, regardless of brand.
