1-Ton Overhead Crane CAD Design – Complete Project for Workshop Fabrication

Looking to build a reliable overhead crane for your workshop or industrial space?
This overhead crane CAD design features a 1-ton single girder layout optimized for compact structures and manual or semi-automated handling.

What’s Included in the CAD Project

This downloadable engineering package includes:

✅ Full 3D CAD model in Autodesk Inventor 2014 (compatible with later versions)

✅ All individual parts and assemblies in IPT and IAM formats

✅ 2D working drawings in DWG format (Inventor-native)

✅ Printable PDF technical sheets for workshop use

✅ Comprehensive BOM (Bill of Materials) with all standards for bolts, channels, profiles, welding notes and steel grade (e.g. S235/S355)

• The design is optimized for welded steel construction using rectangular hollow sections and flat bars, allowing for accurate fabrication with standard equipment.

• Applications and Benefits
• This single girder overhead crane design is suitable for:

• Workshops and garages

• Maintenance zones

• Small-scale production areas

• Retrofitting or upgrading old gantry systems
