CUSTOM CRANES INTEGRATOR

At PDI Solutions, we integrate Custom Cranes to customer specifications, and have designed several to be used in the most demanding applications, utilizing open winch construction and Heavy Duty North American components. Custom Cranes are manufactured to exceed CMAA Standards, offering maximum efficiency in facilities where the crane plays a major role in the manufacturing process. PDI Custom Crane solutions, backed by hundreds of successful projects, solid engineering, and exclusive partners such as ZENAR, can design, build, and deliver your Custom Crane, including turnkey installation, start-up and commissioning services.

PDI Custom Cranes & Gantries are designed to your very specific needs. Ranging from 5 to 300 tons in capacity, they are tailor-made to meet and exceed industry standards and customer expectations. Our ongoing challenge, while utilising today’s technology, is to deliver high-performance Crane Solutions to the Material Handling Industry. Custom Cranes are designed for life cycles of up to 25 years. While being more costly than a standard crane, Custom Cranes offer standardization of mechanical and electrical equipment, as specified by maintenance for ease of replacement, in large open winch design hoists. Being able to use the high quality controls, electrification, and brake components from selected North American manufacturers ensures reliability and low down times, on heavily solicitated Custom Material Handling Equipment.

Many Custom Crane applications require a certain level of automation. PDI Custom Cranes can be delivered fully automated or with the level of automation required to get the job done. Bucket Cranes, found in Incinerators or Cement factories, require high levels of automation to virtually be able to function in an area where operation is difficult due to the conditions found in this Industry. Automation of certain Custom Crane applications is essential where many safety zones exist and the hook travel must be controlled at all times.

PDI also designs and integrates many under-the-hook devices, such as coil grabs, c-hooks, and spreader beams, designed specifically for the application at hand. We also represent several North American manufacturers of Standard and Custom-built lifting devices suited for all industries; such as Steel Mills, Aluminum, Hydro Electric, Pulp & Paper, etc.

Our experienced Engineering and Project Management team, all from the Custom & Standard Crane Industry bring many years of valued knowledge in designing, building, and delivering your Custom Crane. We will integrate the AC or DC control, with all options requested and incorporated in the crane design. Our Project Managers will work caringly with your appointed representatives to ensure that every step of the approval stage, fabrication, and final implementation of the Custom Crane are as specified and requested. Our goal is to 100% satisfy your material handling needs and to ensure we deliver nothing but safe reliable Heavy Duty Lifting Equipment.

PDI offers turnkey installations and commissioning on all our Custom Cranes. PDI has built over the years solid working relationships with many partners, allowing us to provide complete packages using local tradesmen across Canada and the United States. With the leadership of one of our Senior Project Managers, the delivery, installation, and start-up of the crane will be completed quickly, and efficiently.
