Overhead crane: our customized lifting solutions

Swiss expertise in our company and in industrial lifting

With several decades of experience in the transport sector, Friderici Spécial has established itself as a key player in lifting and handling in Switzerland and internationally. Thanks to our modern fleet and experienced teams, we offer overhead crane and gantry solutions tailored to the specific needs of each stage to ensure safety, efficiency, and precision.

Overhead crane: an indispensable ally for loading and unloading bulky equipment

Our overhead cranes are designed to meet the most stringent lifting requirements. With a load capacity of up to 80 tons, they are ideal for heavy and bulky loads. They are used in particular in our industrial halls in Geneva, Tolochenaz, and Orbe, where they facilitate the handling of large parts, especially during loading and unloading operations.

This equipment includes electric hoists, winches, and motorized trolleys for horizontal movement on rails. To enhance control and safety, our overhead cranes feature advanced braking systems, particularly for end-of-travel management. Travel speeds can be configured using frequency converters, allowing for fine-tuning to each operational need.

Installation of overhead cranes at your site

Our teams also specialize in installing overhead cranes at your sites. We always begin with a site analysis to determine the lifting equipment required to install the overhead crane. Each project is unique: we carefully study the available height, floor space, and reach. This customized approach allows us to offer the most suitable solution for each case.

Thanks to our commitment to quality, safety, and innovation, Friderici Spécial is the trusted partner for all your lifting and handling projects.

Handling gantries and hydraulic gantries

We also offer a complete range of (hydraulic) handling gantries with lifting capacities ranging from 3 to 200 tons. These gantries, whether mobile or fixed, can be equipped with hoists, chains, or winches. They are highly versatile and easily adaptable to different types of construction sites.

We offer this equipment for rent, with flexible installation services, both indoors and outdoors, directly at our customers’ sites.

This solution allows for quick and safe on-site intervention for lifting operations that require mobility and flexibility.

This equipment is ideal for operations in a variety of environments, such as warehouses, industrial sites, and power plants. Thanks to their presence in these different environments, they are indispensable for handling, particularly when transferring heavy loads within industrial halls and storage areas.
