Marine Davit Cranes are designed for vertical or angled load handling in confined or hard-to-reach spaces. Featuring a pivoting boom (davit arm) mounted on a stationary base, column, or portable frame, these cranes are engineered to lift, lower, and position equipment, materials, or personnel with precision.
Commonly constructed from corrosion-resistant steel or aluminum, davit cranes excel in applications ranging from marine environments (e.g., shipboard lifeboat deployment) to industrial settings.
Models vary from fixed davits for permanent use to mobile or articulated designs that extend, retract, or tilt for specialized tasks.Widely used in maritime, construction, oil and gas, and utility industries, davit cranes provide a cost-effective solution for localized lifting needs where traditional cranes are impractical. Their adaptability supports customization in boom length, mounting style, and load capacity to meet site-specific challenges.
