Demag KBK ergonomic crane installations offer unmatched flexibility in design. Plant rearrangement is quickly and easily accomplished because KBK components can
be readily disassembled, moved and reinstalled. What is a monorail today can be a crane tomorrow. Demag KBK ergonomic crane systems are compatible with the Demag DKM Manulift, Demag DK Electric Chain Hoist and the Demag DBS Air Balancer.
The unique design of KBK produces a lightweight, but strong, modular track section. Trolleys running inside the track permit safe, clean and quiet operation for loads up to 4,000 Ibs. Internally electrified sections are available in KBK-IIR Track. This track is ideal for closed loop systems or operations where many hoists are used in close proximity. Curves can easily be negotiated without the binding problems inherent with a tagline system.
KBK trolleys are equipped with hard nylon wheels running on sealed anti-friction bearings with life-time lubrication. Elimination of metal to metal contact and internal trolley travel results in clean, quiet and nearly wear-free operation.
KBK Alu aluminum ergonomic crane rail offers unmatched flexibility in design. The unique design of KBK Alu produces a lightweight, but strong, modular track section. Trolleys running inside the track permit safe, clean and quiet operation for loads up to 1,400 pounds. Alu rail can be used as ergonomic crane bridges on standard KBK steel rail.
