Tarca® Systems

Home > Products > Work Station Cranes > Tarca® Systems

Free Standing Tarca® Systems are built using our unique patented Tarca® Track. Its special raised tread and high carbon track is superior to I-Beams in strength, durability and consistency. Capacities are available from 2 to 5 ton with spans to 60 ft.

  • Require the crane support steel to be tied back to another structure
  • Available in braced designs or completely free standing
  • Heights under bridge from 10 - 20 ft.
  • Runway support centers from 20 - 60 ft. increments.
Ceiling Mounted Tarca® Systems are built using our unique patented Tarca® Track. Its special raised tread and high carbon track is superior to I-Beams in strength, durability and consistency. Capacities are available from 2 to 5 ton with spans to 60 ft.

  • Runway support centers from 20 - 60 ft. increments.




Features:
  • High carbon flange for longer track life
  • Raised tread provides durablility and superior safety
  • 100% weld penetration ensures quality
  • Straight rails make system expansion easy
  • Efficient design for spanning
  • Standardized lower flange provides compatibility
  • Rugged long lasting components
  • Flexible suspensions mean greater system performance and lower maintenance costs
Use For:
  • Applications up to 5 tons
  • High duty cycle applications
  • Warehouse loading docks
  • Assembly & Machining
  • Process Equipment Maintenance
  • Truck Service Centers
Industry's Best Warranty - 2 years on all Tarca® systems

Design Responsibility - We do not suggest or recommend any materials be used

Ease of Installation - Components are built and assembled with jigs and fixtures which ensure easy installation

Improved Performance - Superior to I-beams in strength, durability, and consistency

Local Representation - Sold and service by a nationwide network of material handling specialists

Safety - All cranes are pre-engineered for powered hoist operation with an impact factor of 15%

Available Accessories:
  • Monorail Curves
  • Interlocks
  • Switches
  • Safpowrbar® Electrification
Bumper Switch: A mechanical device which will prevent the passage of a carrier from a track entering a switch which is not properly aligned and locked to permit passage.

Carrier (trolley): An assembly with four or more wheels which runs on monorail track or crane girders, and supports a load or a hoist and load.

Clamp: A type of suspension fitting used to support tracks by pressure gripping an overhead structure rather than by welding or direct bolting to the structure.

Collector: Electrical contacting device providing a path for current flow from stationary conductors to moving equipment.

Coupling (splice): Mechanical device used to join the adjacent ends of track sections.

Electrification: The track mounted conductor system by which the moving equipment receives its electrical power.

End Stop: A device located at the end of a monorail track or crane bridge to prevent the carrier from leaving the track or crane bridge. Also at the end of each crane runway.

End Truck: An assembly consisting of a truck frame and four or more wheels which support the traveling crane girders.

Girder, Bridge: Straight-beam track member (two on a double-girder crane) on which crane carriers or trolleys travel; mounted horizontally and at right angles to the crane runway and supported by end trucks which travel on the crane runways.

Hanger Rod: A steel rod which, to together with other suspension fittings, is used to suspend the track from the supporting structure.

Head, Motor Driven: A motor driven carrier head which is supported from and propelled by the load bearing wheels.

Hoist: Hand or motor-driven mechanism for lifting or lowering loads.

Idler Head: A two-wheeled yoke assembly used in conjunction with load bars to form a carrier or end truck; both of the latter units have four or more wheels.

Impact Allowance: Additional hook load assumed to result from the dynamic effect of the rated load.
