Introducing our latest development, the automated engine crane. Designed to transport engines between build stations and storage racks perfectly every time. It is an overhead crane, travelling along a bridge with electric tractors, working with an AGV, all controlled by a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). With key features such as: Contact us today to learn […]

Pneumatic Power, Electrical Controls: The Hybrid Gripper
In November, we introduced our latest advancement. Our pneumatically powered gripper with PLC controls enhances lift assist functionality. It installs second row seats onto a moving assembly line through the side of the vehicle, while the third row gripper enters through the tailgate to position seats on the datum. The gripper then extends forward and […]

Introducing Our New Assembly Plant
In October, we unveiled our new assembly plant, further demonstrating Givens Engineering’s commitment to growth, innovation, and engineering-driven manufacturing solutions. As the first building in the area, the 30,000-square-foot building stands on a spacious four-acre property at 1980 Victory Court, offering extensive potential for future expansion. A Purpose-Built Assembly Plant Designed for Growth Our new industrial […]
Introducing The 3-Ton All- Aluminum Crane with 40′ Span
Advancing Aluminum Crane Design with a 40′ Span In June we revealed the 3-Ton all-aluminum crane with a disengageable tractor drive running on a 25’ span. Today, we introduce a 3-Ton all-aluminum crane over an impressive 40’ span. Based on our industry experience, we believe this is the only 3-ton all-aluminum bridge crane with a […]

Introducing The Mini Tractor Drive
Our new tractor drive for cranes, the ATS, is about half the weight of our traditional tractor drive, the AT (air tractor) or ET (electric tractor). The ATS weighs about 25 lb and can be carried in one hand. Dave Chivers, who developed the ATS, can explain it best: For its small size, the ATS has […]
Introducing The World’s First* 3-Ton Aluminum Crane
We have developed a 3-ton crane where the bridge and runways are made of aluminum, making the bridge one of the most lightweight in the world. What makes it lightweight? It’s our classic G-Rail enclosed-track rail supported by our patented Slant Truss reinforcement. We combine that extremely light bridge with our electric disengageable […]

The Importance of Ergonomics in Material Handling Equipment
1. Improve Working Posture and Range of Motion Poor posture and restricted movements are the leading causes of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) in industrial settings. Ergonomic material handling equipment—such as adjustable lift tables, articulated arms, and conveyors that are height adjustable help workers maintain neutral body positions, reducing stress on the spine, shoulders, and joints. By […]

Experience the Difference with the Indoor Outdoor Crane
At Givens Engineering, we’re redefining what a crane can do. Our patent-pending design allows a crane to seamlessly roll over a gap in the rail, enabling a commercial dock door to close through it. This means that trucks do not have to enter your building; Our innovative crane efficiently receives the material outside, lifts it, and then smoothly […]

Introducing The New GED56 All-Electric Gripper – A High Grip Force Gripper for Industrial Automation
Why are almost all grippers on robots, cranes and manipulators pneumatic? It’s because powerful electric grippers are, for all practical purposes, unavailable. To solve this problem, our electric grippers incorporate our patent-pending electric clamping actuator. This invention allows a gripper to close fast against any object with a powerful grip. Our electric grippers are tough and […]
