Description
WiMAG 525 Aluminium Portable Site Gantry Lightweight 500kg Mobile Gantry Crane with Beam Trolley
The WiMAG Aluminium Portable Site Gantry is a premium lightweight lifting solution engineered for safe, efficient, and highly portable material handling across construction sites, maintenance operations, workshops, warehouses, and industrial environments. Designed and manufactured in Germany, this 500kg portable gantry crane combines robust aluminium construction with outstanding portability, allowing a single operator to erect, dismantle, and transport the system with ease.
Unlike conventional steel gantries, the WiMAG AV 0.5 Portable Site Gantry utilises high-strength aluminium profiles to significantly reduce overall weight while maintaining exceptional structural integrity. Every major component weighs no more than 20kg, enabling quick manual handling without specialist lifting equipment.
Supplied complete with a ball-bearing beam trolley as standard, the gantry provides smooth horizontal load movement and can be fitted with a range of optional accessories, including manual chain hoists, trolley locking devices, rubber foot plates, and erection aids, making it a highly adaptable lifting solution for professional users.
Lightweight Aluminium Construction for Maximum Portability
Designed specifically for mobile lifting applications, the WiMAG Portable Site Gantry can be erected and dismantled by a single operator, making it ideal for contractors and engineers who regularly work across multiple locations.
The lightweight aluminium frame offers numerous benefits, including:
- Fast one-person assembly
- Easy transportation between sites
- Reduced manual handling effort
- Corrosion-resistant construction
- High strength-to-weight ratio
- Compact storage when dismantled
With a total system weight of just 58kg, the gantry is easy to transport in service vehicles and site vans without compromising lifting performance.
Adjustable Height & Beam Span for Flexible Lifting
One of the key advantages of the WiMAG AV 0.5 gantry is its fully adjustable design.
The telescopic support legs allow operators to adjust the beam height from a minimum clear height: 1.6 metres to a maximum clear height: 2.8 metres.
This makes the gantry particularly suitable for:
- Uneven ground
- Loading and unloading vehicles
- Construction sites
- Confined working areas
- Maintenance operations
- Temporary lifting locations
The adjustable beam span further enhances flexibility, allowing the gantry to be positioned in restricted spaces where fixed lifting equipment cannot be used.
Smooth Load Handling with Integrated Beam Trolley
Each gantry is supplied with a high-quality ball-bearing beam trolley, allowing loads to move smoothly across the beam with minimal rolling resistance.
Optional trolley upgrades include:
- Hand chain-operated trolley locking device
- Manual chain hoist
- Screw lifting clamp
- Erection aid
- Rubber foot plates for delicate floor surfaces
These accessories enable the gantry to be tailored for a wide range of lifting and maintenance applications.
Built for Professional Site & Workshop Applications
Manufactured by WiMAG Germany, the Portable Site Gantry is built to deliver dependable performance in demanding working environments.
Typical applications include:
- Construction sites
- Mechanical installation
- Plant maintenance
- Workshop lifting
- Vehicle loading and unloading
- Utility maintenance
- Equipment servicing
