Demag EPKE-O single-girder
overhead travelling cranes
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? Then the Demag EPKE-O
single-girder overhead travelling crane is the right choice. It
meets your high expectations for quality, reliability and
performance. EPKE-O is 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 DMR rope hoist, and tried-and-tested
sub-assemblies give you the certainty of a long service
life. The cranes also offer outstanding design geometry,
resulting in exceptional travel characteristics.

 Demag EVKE
V-type cranes
The Demag V-type girder lays the foundations for
a completely new generation of crane girders.
The girder design concept offers significantly
improved precision and flexibility.

Reduced oscillation – improved handling rates

Tapered diaphragm joints are specially designed to accommodate pressure
and tensile forces and reduce resonance frequency by up to 30%.

Lower deadweight – improved efficiency

The light-weight design of the V-type crane cuts its deadweight by an
average of 17 % compared with conventional box-section girders. This
reduces the forces transmitted to the existing support superstructure and
gives architects greater freedom for planning new building layouts.

Reduced loads – longer service life

The crane and its components are subjected to lower loads thanks to
reduced oscillation characteristics. The resulting lower wear pays off in the
long term: with 500,000 changes of load, a V-type crane will deliver double
the service life of a comparable crane that has a box-section girder.

Further reasons for V-type cranes

••Stability – Maximum stability thanks to stiffeners on components subject-
ed to high loads
••Versatility – Precise adaptation to match building geometry
••Flexibility – Lower forces transmitted to the existing support superstruc-
ture afford greater freedom for planning new building layouts
••Wind resistance – Optimised design makes V-type cranes ideally suited
for outdoor operation: 55% less wind resistance
••More light – Girder design based on bionic principles allows up to 30%
more light to pass through
••Service friendly – Securely held for transport thanks to many clamping
and attachment points
••Ease of maintenance – Weld seams are not concealed and can be easily
inspected for safe operation
••BlueEngineering
••Careful use of resources by employing less material
••Reduction of required drive output thanks to lower deadweight
••Plate metal parts are cleaned with dry ice
••Eco-friendly use of water-based paints

 Demag ZVKE double-
girder V-type cranes
Lower weight
A significant feature of the V-type crane is the reduced weight of the crane
girder compared with cranes that have box-section girders. This results in
potential load capacity gains for overhead travelling cranes which can be
equipped with rope hoists that have higher load capacities. This means that
a ZVKE double-girder crane can transport heavier unit loads than a crane
which has a box-section girder – without exerting a higher load on the crane
runway and building superstructure, which enables existing buildings to be
utilised even better.

Exact adaptation to match building geometry

V-type double-girder cranes are offered in four different designs. The side
connection of the end carriages to the girder is a feature that they all share.
The crane can be adapted in the best possible way to match the volume of
existing buildings. For new buildings, the space between the crane and
building roof can be reduced. This factor saves costs for the building struc-
ture and for its upkeep and maintenance.

Precise crab runways and torsion-free crane girders

The ZVKE offers even more precision with reference to its crab runway.
Placing the crab rail in the middle of the V-type crane girders also results in a
balanced distribution of forces and the crane girder remains free of any
torsion. Thanks to its V-type design with vertical struts, the load-dependent
forces exerted by the rope hoist crab are transferred vertically to the girders.
This minimises wear on the crab travel rails and trolleys – and the V-type
double-girder crane ensures that the track gauge of the crab runway is
precisely maintained.

More light – improved safety

Thanks to its girder design, which is based on bionic principles, the V-type
crane, particularly in the double-girder variant, affords a better view for
improved safety. It also allows much more light to pass compared with solid
crane girders.

Our EPDE and EKDE suspension cranes leave your entire workshop area available
for production. The cranes are simply attached to the existing roof structure
– columns to support the crane runway are not needed. This solution saves time
and cuts costs. Alternatively, the installation of stand-alone steel superstructures
also enables the solution to be adapted to changed production requirements.

Demag suspension cranes run on tracks that are attached

Demag crane sets C-rail assembly

An EPKE-O crane set is a fast and

cost-effective solution for a crane
manufacturer to complete a crane. It
contains all main components, from
the drive and rope hoist to the elec-
tric equipment. You only have to add
the crane girder.

A Demag crane set can be configured to meet individual

needs to complete cranes and material handling sys-
tems. If required, we can supply the structural calcula-
tion 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 delivery

The opportunity to procure the crane girder locally and
to install it direct on site, makes it possible to cut delivery
times and save transport costs. At the same time, you
benefit from immediate availability of the components.
Crane manufacturers can easily integrate our newly

This means:
••We focus on your needs
••Logistical interfaces are defined at an early stage
This approach ensures a reliable solution for the

Project engineering and design work for the crane installation are both simplified and
accelerated by the use of our planning tool, which also verifies the plausibility of the data.
Rather than find out during installation whether the design and layout are correct, we check in
