The system provides a set of compatible components with aluminium and steel profiles, which can be instantly and easily combined, says the manufacturer.

Christian Heid, managing director at SWF Krantechnik, said: “In addition to LIGHTster and ProfileMaster, I am excited to offer our clients ProfileMaster PLUS, a flexible system for building custom light craneswith a ‘Made in Germany’ quality seal.

“Using the online configuration tool, Chain@Master, companies can easily calculate and order a tailor-made crane system with even more customizing options than ever before. The components are also pre-sorted on delivery to ensure a fast, simple assembly.”

The ProfileMaster Plus is designed to offer fast and simple assembly, with a large selection of profiles and optional internal conductor lines, as well as precision-fit joint connections and high load-bearing connection systems.

It also provides low maintenance requirements, long service life, and a solid construction that adapts to individual production processes, says SWF Krantechnik.

The system also offers various installation options with an optimised selection of suspensions, and varying headroom to enable space-saving solutions, adds the company.

The aluminium version, ProfileMaster Plus AL, comprises six profiles in four sizes, while the steel version ProfileMaster Plus ST has seven profiles in five sizes.
