Monorails
At MECACONCEPT Canada, we design, adapt, and certify custom overhead monorail systems—straight or curved—to meet your specific needs. Compatible with both temporary and permanent structures, our systems comply with the strictest standards, including ASME B30.11.
Through the collaboration between MECACONCEPT, ABMS Consultants, and Solutions GCF, we offer unparalleled expertise in engineering, manufacturing, and certification of lifting equipment, recognized across Quebec, Canada, and the United States.
Why Choose a Monorail?
Advantages of an Overhead Monorail System
- Precise Linear Movement: Ideal for handling, assembly, or transferring loads between workstations.
- High Adaptability: Easily integrates into confined or cluttered spaces with various configurations.
- Simplified Installation: Quick setup with a wide range of capacities, from a few kilograms to several tons.
- Flexible Integration: Available as suspended systems or self-supporting structures, depending on your infrastructure.
Concrete Examples for Inspiration
Custom Monorail Projects
Our experienced team has been designing custom monorails and other lifting and handling equipment for many years.
The examples below showcase some of our projects, but each solution is unique. For equipment perfectly tailored to your technical, operational, and regulatory constraints, feel free to contact us.
Monorail for Temporary Structure Installation
- 2 rails, each with a 1250 lb capacity → 2500 lb in tandem
- 16.5m span
- Designed for quick assembly and disassembly using bolted beam clamps
Design of a Curved Monorail
- 4000 kg capacity
- Monorail attached using clamps to an existing ceiling
Curved Monorail for Confined Spaces
Design of a curved monorail for rapid installation in a hydroelectric plant, enabling the handling of heavy equipment in a restricted space.
