overhead crane
Industrial ceiling hoist
An overhead crane is a lifting machine that runs along elevated rails or beams, typically spanning the width of a factory or warehouse.
The crane moves horizontally while its hoist moves vertically, allowing heavy loads to be lifted and transported anywhere within the bay.
Also called a bridge crane.
The overhead crane lowered the steel coil onto the truck bed.
