In today’s industrial environments, efficient, safe, and fast material handling is crucial—where automation is not just a competitive advantage but a basic requirement. GD’s gripping devices offer precise, reliable, and economical solutions for specialized lifting tasks, all tailored to meet specific customer needs.

These devices are load-handling attachments mounted on cranes, designed to suit the type, shape, and weight of the load, as well as the characteristics of the work environment. Every single gripping device or lifting beam is the result of custom design, developed in close collaboration between GD engineers and the client to ensure optimal performance for the intended application.

Our product range is highly diverse and adaptable, including:

• Standard or custom-designed lifting beams,
• Spring-loaded, pneumatic, or hydraulic-operated grippers,
