Demag KBK Aluline Light Crane System — Where Ergonomics Meets Productivity

The numbers don't lie. International studies consistently show that better workplace ergonomics leads directly to higher productivity. So the question isn't whether ergonomics matters — it's whether your equipment is keeping up.

That's exactly where the KBK Aluline comes in.

We didn't just improve our light crane system — we completely redefined what smooth running means. The result is one of the smoothest-running systems on the market today, making every movement easier, more controlled, and less physically demanding for your operators.

The benefits speak for themselves. Your team gets more ergonomic workflows, more convenient load handling, and a system that now confidently handles loads of up to 2,000 kg. Whether you're running an assembly line, a workshop, or a full production facility, the KBK Aluline is built to help your people work smarter — every single day.

Smart Planning Starts with the Right System

Every workspace is different — and the KBK Aluline is designed with that in mind.

Our optimised and modular KBK Aluline components are built to address spatial challenges right from the planning stage. Nothing is left to chance. Our optimised trolleys reduce approach dimensions, helping you make the most of every inch of available space without compromise.

And it doesn't stop there. During the project engineering phase, planners get greater flexibility than ever before. Larger distances between suspensions and the option of an integrated conductor line mean less installation work, lower assembly costs, and a smoother path from design to operation.

Ready for Change, Whenever It Comes

Business needs evolve — and your crane system should be able to keep up.
That‘ss why KBK additional components are designed to give installation owners the flexibility to adapt at any time. Take variable travel path limitation, for example. It allows you to restrict travel motions in just a few simple steps — no complicated procedures, no lengthy downtime. Quick to install and easy to adjust, it's the kind of practical solution that makes a real difference on the ground.
