Advantages of our crane systems

Schedule a Consultation

Strong yet 30% lighter

The PLANETA LiFT LiNE light crane system weighs approximately 30% less than conventional solutions. This makes installation easier, reduces the load on supporting structures, and allows for retrofitting in existing facilities – without the need for structural modifications.

Safety Factor 6

Our products are built to a high safety factor of 6. Anodised profiles provide optimal corrosion protection, while ball-bearing-mounted trolleys ensure smooth and precise movement. Durable connection technology guarantees a long-lasting, stable structure – ideal for demanding industrial applications with the highest safety requirements.

Easy Integration

The PLANETA LiFT LiNE system can be seamlessly integrated into existing infrastructure. This saves time during project implementation and ensures smooth operational workflows.

Noticeably relieving

Thanks to optimised rolling resistance, loads can be moved precisely and with minimal effort. This reduces physical strain on your staff during daily operations and helps lower downtime caused by overexertion.

Rapid Deployment

Installation requires no special tools and does not interrupt ongoing operations. This means the system is quickly assembled and immediately ready for use – without costly downtime.

Low-maintenance design – cost-effective operation

Corrosion-resistant materials and certified safety features ensure minimal maintenance requirements. This significantly reduces follow-up costs and leads to a fast return on investment.

Variable Profile Sizes

The six profile sizes – PXH06 to PXH22 – offer maximum flexibility. They can be freely combined with single- and double-girder systems, enabling customised solutions for a wide range of requirements in plant construction.

Modular System Design

Whether single- or double-girder, linear or circular – the PLANETA LiFT LiNE light crane system offers maximum flexibility through modular expandability. Your crane system grows in step with your requirements.

Life Cycle Care – Comprehensive service for maximum uptime and longevity

Our Life Cycle Care package supports your lifting and crane systems throughout their entire operational life – even under continuous industrial use. From routine inspections and preventive maintenance to modernisation and fast spare parts supply, we ensure long-term performance and reliability.

Company History

Defying Gravity

PLANETA represents the fusion of tradition and forward-thinking innovation in the field of lifting technology. Our origins date back to 1861, when master locksmith Hermann Wilhelmi founded his own workshop in Mülheim an der Ruhr – the beginning of what would later become Wilhelmi Hebezeuge, and since 2003, PLANETA-Hebetechnik. Driven by a constant pursuit of precision, our products soon began to shape not only workshops, but entire industries. Branches in Paris, Vienna and Shanghai followed, becoming key hubs of our broad international presence and expertise. Quality and safety have always been the driving forces behind our growth – and our certifications according to DIN EN ISO 9000:2001 and the strict regulations for Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) are not just framed on the wall, but lived promises reflected in every product and service we deliver. Today, PLANETA is not only contributing to the future of lifting technology – we are helping to redefine it. Our mission is to perfect our equipment so that it doesn’t just lift loads – it elevates safety, efficiency, and technical progress for our customers.
