Demag KBK Aluline
The ergonomic benchmark
Demag KBK Aluline light crane system
International studies prove that ergonomic workplace design has an immediate impact on productivity. Benefit from the productivity opportunities that KBK Aluline has to offer. We have redefined smooth running characteristics for our KBK Aluline light crane system. The result: one of the smoothest-running systems on the market. For operating sequences that are more ergonomic and convenient than ever before. And now for loads weighing up to 2,000 kg.
With our optimised and modular KBK Aluline components, spatial challenges and requirements are already taken into account during the planning stage. Reduced approach dimensions and thus improved utilisation of the available space are ensured by our optimised trolleys. During the project engineering phase, planners already gain more flexibility thanks to, for example, larger distances between suspensions and the option of an integrated conductor line, thus reducing installation work and assembly costs.
Useful KBK additional components enable owners of installations to respond to changing requirements at any time. Variable travel path limitation, for example, makes it possible to limit travel motions in just a few steps. Quick and easy to install.

- Lower assembly costs
Product information
The benefits at a glance
Optimum egonomics
- Convenient and ergonomic push-travel operation, also thanks to low crane deadweights
- Optimum support for fatigue-free operation
- Reduced physical burden for workers
- Lower absenteeism due to illness
- Higher employee satisfaction
- Optimum workplace design thanks to comprehensive range of chain hoists and load handling attachments
Highly cost-effective
- Maximum value and efficiency throughout the entire product service life
- Compatible with existing KBK Aluline systems
- Smart combinations with steel profile sections for even larger distances between suspensions
- Gain valuable floor space thanks to overhead materials handling – linear, e.g. along a production line, and area-serving, e.g. at individual assembly stations
Maximum flexibility
- Modular system design based on the construction-kit principle
- Wide range of applications from push-travel and electric systems or pneumatic operation to fully automated installations
- New components can be integrated or existing units can be replaced with ease at any time
- Combination of aluminum and steel profile sections possible in one installation
- Short delivery times thanks to availability of almost all parts from stock
Valuable cost savings
- Fast and simple installation and conversion
- Reduced forces transmitted to superstructures for lighter, more cost-effective building design
- Greater distances between suspensions and joints for fewer suspension fittings: additional steelwork largely unnecessary
- Simple and cost-effective modification and extension to meet changing requirements
Proven system
- Continuously tested in our own test center and in external tests
- Quality made in Germany
- Light crane system from the market leader with more than 50 years of experience
