The previous DIN 15018 crane standard has been replaced by European standard EN 13001.

Make the right choice with EPKE-O, which already meets the requirements of this standard.

Are you looking for a crane solution that matches your standardised workshop architecture? A solution that can be supplied with a short lead time and which offers better value than the usual standard solutions? And which meets your demanding requirements in terms of quality, reliability and performance in full? Then the Demag EpKE-o single-girder overhead travelling crane is the right choice. Available as a crane or crane set.

TrIED aND TEsTED, uNcOMPrOMIsINg DEMag qualITy The top-connected rolled-profile girder offers optimum value with genuine Demag quality components for a wide range of options to choose from. EPKE-O cranes can be supplied as complete cranes or as crane sets, which only contain the main components. A crane set allows you to select your own crane girder.

Demag EPKE-O provides you with a crane installation that can be supplied more quickly, more easily and more cost-effectively to meet your application needs thanks to its basic design. Perfectly matching components, such as the new Demag DR-Com rope hoist, and tried-and-tested sub-assemblies give you the certainty of a long service life. They also offer the benefits of out-standing crane geometry, resulting in exceptional travel characteristics.

We have almost 200 years of experience in hoists and series crane production, as demonstrated by our installed base of 660,000 cranes and hoists.

yOur bENEfITs ▪ EPKE-O both as complete cranes or as crane sets (which do not include a crane bridge)

▪ Excellent value as an alternative to cranes that have box-section girders

▪ Additional safety thanks to derailment guard fitted as standard

▪ High operating reliability thanks to components that have a long service life

▪ Safe, reliable and rugged control system, either with an intelligent CAN bus processor system or with contactor control

▪ Simple installation saves time on site thanks to prepared assemblies

Equipped for efficient crane production

If required, we can supply the structural calculation for the crane girder, which you can simply integrate into your documentation. This saves you time and makes it easy for you to co-ordinate delivery with your supplier.

lOcal PrOcurEMENT – fasT DElIvEryThe opportunity to procure the crane girder locally and to install it direct on site, makes it possible to cut delivery times and save shipping costs. At the same time, you benefit from immediate availability. Crane manufacturers can easily integrate the newly developed crane set into their own steel super-structure. In short, our pre-assembled product packages provide for efficient crane production.

The EpKE-o crane set is the fastest solution offering the best value for a crane manufacturer to complete a crane. it contains all main components, from the drive and rope hoist to the electric equipment. You only have to add the appropriate crane girder. The EpKE-o crane set can be configured to meet individual needs to complete cranes and material handling systems.
