Overhead trolleys are conveyors that consist of a continuous loop of chain or cable that is suspended from a track. Carriers are attached periodically to hang or contain products.
Industrial Cranes
Industrial cranes raise, shift, and lower loads with a projected, swinging arm or a hoisting apparatus supported on an overhead track.

Industrial hoists are lifting and pulling devices that use a cable, rope, or chain to move or lift a load. Hoists are primarily used for vertical lifting, and usually have a feature for ceiling mounting such as a hook or trolley mount.
