Engineered Material Handling (EMH), a US-based provider of overhead material handling equipment, has expanded the capabilities of its NOMAD XW Freestanding Crane.
The NOMAD XW Double Girder Cranes now offer overall widths up to 70ft and heights up to 25ft, with capacities ranging from two tons to 25 tons.
The expansion enhances the flexibility and efficiency of the crane systems.
The modular NOMAD XW Cranes feature unlimited runway lengths and column spacing options of 20 to 25ft or more, accommodating diverse industrial needs.
Double girder cranes are particularly advantageous for larger capacities, wider spans, and higher hook heights, making them suitable for various manufacturing environments.
NOMAD Cranes provides adaptable solutions for manufacturers, especially when traditional building-supported overhead crane installations are challenging.
These cranes are available for one to four-cell manufacturing systems and include safety-enclosed-type runway electrification brackets welded on runway beams, with field-installed conductor bars as standard.
Each NOMAD Crane system is equipped with mounting plates, bolts, and bumpers, and features top running end-truck travel speeds of 80 or 120 FPM (VFD).
Wire rope hoists provide lifting speeds of 16/2.6 FPM, with trolley speeds reaching 65 FPM (VFD). Bridge conductor cables are pre-wired to quick-disconnect plugs for ease of installation.
Standard features of the NOMAD Crane Solutions include radio control with a hand-held AAA-operated radio controller.
Rechargeable models and a back-up pushbutton station are available as optional features, enhancing operational flexibility.
EMH employs sophisticated design and production processes to ensure high-quality cranes that meet specific customer requirements.
The company utilises proprietary software to deliver quick and accurate proposals, sometimes within minutes of an inquiry.
Automated welding is used for the efficient production of box girders, supported by an extensive inventory of components to maintain smooth production flow.
Founded in 1988 in Valley City, Ohio, EMH designs, sells, and manufactures a comprehensive range of overhead material handling equipment.
Its offerings include Bridge Cranes, Crane Kits, Freestanding Cranes, Gantry Cranes, Jib Cranes, Workstation Cranes, and both custom and standard Wire Rope Hoists and End Trucks, catering to loads from 25 lbs to 300 tons.
Operating from a 125,000ft2 advanced manufacturing facility, EMH ensures effective and cost-efficient production and is ISO 9001:2015 certified.
