KBK LIGHT CRANE SYSTEM

We launched our Demag KBK light crane system more than 60 years ago – today, we are the world market leader with this product in the light crane system sector. Using our KBK system, we can meet your specific application requirements precisely, quickly and efficiently. The components of our modular system can be combined to create individual suspension monorail, suspension crane, pillar and wall-mounted slewing jib crane solutions. Thanks to the system’s high flexibility, our KBK installations can be integrated easily into any production infrastructure – and modified at any time.

Our efficient network of crane builders and installation partners plans and installs the systems with the Demag KBK light crane system: from individual workstations to complete intralogistics solutions.

          1. KBK ALULINE LIGHT CRANE SYSTEM

International studies prove that ergonomic workplace design has an immediate impact on productivity. Benefit from the productivity opportunities that KBK Aluline has to offer. We have redefined smooth running characteristics for our KBK Aluline light crane system. The result: one of the smoothest-running systems on the market. For operating sequences that are more ergonomic and convenient than ever before. And now for loads weighing up to 2,000 kg.

With our optimized and modular KBK Aluline components, spatial challenges and requirements are already taken into account during the planning stage. Reduced approach dimensions and thus improved utilization of the available space are ensured by our optimized trolleys. During the project engineering phase, planners already gain more flexibility thanks to, for example, larger distances between suspensions and the option of an integrated conductor line, thus reducing installation work and assembly costs.

Useful KBK additional components enable owners of installations to respond to changing requirements at any time. Variable travel path limitation, for example, makes it possible to limit travel motions in just a few steps. Quick and easy to install.

• Extremely smooth travel
• Fast and simple installation and conversion
• Load capacity range up to 2,000 kg
• Ergonomic load handling for even heavy loads
• Low noise levels
• Virtually maintenance-free system
• 8 different aluminium profile sections in 5 sizes
• Integrated conductor line for 3 profile section sizes
• Maximum freedom of planning thanks to modular system design
• Unique combinations with steel profile sections for maximum distances between suspensions
• Reduced approach dimensions
• Lower assembly costs

          3. KBK DOUBLE-GIRDER SUSPENSION CRANES

Double-girder suspension cranes from our kbk light crane system enable goods of all kinds to be transported with ease. They provide area-serving, overhead handling – and guarantee fast, reliable and precise positioning even for heavy loads and large span dimensions.

What other successful characteristics do they offer?

• Cost-effective implementation
• Modular system design
• Smooth and reliable handling
• Favorable installation dimensions
• Rated for loads weighing up to 3,200 kg

          5. KBK CRANES FOR MANIPULATORS

Our KBK cranes for manipulators are an outstanding example for the versatility of our KBK light crane system. They can be designed to meet the exact needs of a wide variety of loads, processes and production conditions. They reliably accommodate kick-up forces with great positioning accuracy – and at high operating speeds. Further strengths include:

• optimum positioning of workpieces and sub-assemblies into the most favorable positions for the relevant process
• workplaces, machinery and installations can be served from almost any direction
• Installations can be built with steel or aluminum profile sections.

          7. KBK STACKER CRANES

Our KBK stacker cranes make it possible to complete all storage and handling tasks in one operating cycle without the need for ladders, order-picking trolleys or similar equipment. Unit loads, containers or pallets weighing up to 500 kg can be safely and reliably transported, sorted and stored.

• Combination of KBK double-girder suspension crane and special stacker trolley
• Load handling attachments to match the load – forks, prongs, grippers and other attachments can be supplied
