Interlock Transfer Crane Systems are designed to facilitate the seamless movement of materials between multiple bridge cranes operating in adjacent or connected bays. Using a specialized interlocking mechanism, these systems enable a hoist to travel safely and efficiently from one crane to another without the need for manual handling. This capability extends the operational range of overhead cranes, optimizing workflow efficiency and reducing downtime. By integrating interlock technology, facilities can enhance productivity while maintaining a high level of safety in their material handling operations.

AFE Crane custom-engineers Interlock Transfer Crane Systems to meet the unique needs of various industries, including manufacturing, aerospace, and heavy equipment assembly. Our solutions are designed to support specific load capacities, spans, and environmental conditions, ensuring reliable performance in demanding applications. Whether transferring materials across multiple bays or integrating with existing monorail systems, our interlock solutions provide a seamless and efficient method for handling complex lifting operations.
Interlock and transfer cranes are highly adaptable to meet the specific needs of various material handling applications. Customization ensures seamless operation, whether integrating multiple cranes, accommodating unique facility layouts, or automating processes for efficiency and safety. Available customization options include:
Ideal for light and medium-duty applications, a manually engaged latch allows operators to control crane transfers with minimal complexity.
For heavier-duty systems, a motorized latch enhances efficiency by automating the engagement and release of the interlock mechanism.
Systems can be designed with multiple cranes, monorail sections, or interlocking paths to optimize material flow within a facility.
Depending on operational needs, hoists can be electric, manual, or air-powered, offering flexibility in lifting capacity, precision, and duty cycle.
For advanced sequencing and interlocking functions, programmable logic controllers (PLCs) automate crane movements, improving repeatability and reducing operator intervention.
