Applications

This used Broderson IC20-1G carry deck crane is a versatile tool across multiple industries. It fits perfectly into indoor and outdoor tasks where maneuverability and pick-and-carry functionality are essential. Typical use cases include setting equipment on mezzanines, transporting components across shop floors, placing loads under overhead constraints, and supporting maintenance shutdowns where time and access are tight. The crane’s ability to lift, travel short distances, and position precisely makes it a dependable choice for:

• Industrial and plant maintenance
• Manufacturing and fabrication shops
• Power generation and utility facilities
• Petrochemical and refinery maintenance

Rather than tying up capital in a new unit, you can acquire proven capability at a lower cost basis while maintaining flexibility for future fleet adjustments. For organizations that value nimble operations, this approach preserves budget for other mission-critical investments without sacrificing performance on the job.
