Single girder overhead travelling cranes have a low deadweight and the use of trolleys with small dimensions resulted in favourable assembly dimensions. The cranes can be operated from the work floor by means of a pushbutton pendant running independently of the trolley movement along the crane girder. As an option, the cranes can be fitted with a radiographic remote control. The crane's power supply uses a looped flat cable or a protected conductor rail.

Lifting units of the electric steel wire hoist DH or DR, or electric chain hoist DC, are compact, robust modern lifting units, requiring little maintenance and subdivided into several FEM classes, implying that, depending on operational intensity, the right technical and cost-effective choice can be made. Also, depending on the type of usage and workload, one can choose between a steel wire hoist and chain hoist.

The cranes' steel construction is in accordance with DIN 15018, lifting class 2, load group 3 (different load groups are available on request). Depending on workload and span, the main girder is either designed as a profile girder or welded box girder.

On each side of the crane there is a low-maintenance crane travel drive, which directly drives a crane wheel without gear ring/ gear wheel. The DEMAG motor, with special starting and braking properties, guarantees a quiet start and braking of the crane that restricts load swings to a minimum.
