Derrick Crane – Heavy Duty Stone Handling & Lifting Solution
A derrick crane is a, often fixed, lifting device featuring a mast and boom used for heavy construction, shipping, and dismantling tasks. It operates by utilizing a hoisting mechanism, typically controlled by wire ropes connected to the mast, to lift, swing, and move loads, with capacities often ranging from 20 to 30 tonnes.
Derrick Crane Machine
Derrick Crane Manufacturer for Heavy Lifting Applications. A derrick crane is a powerful, fixed or semi-fixed lifting machine designed for heavy lifting, stone handling, and industrial material movement. As an experienced derrick crane manufacturer, Ajmer Machine designs and supplies robust, high-capacity derrick cranes built for demanding environments such as stone yards, mining areas, construction sites, and industrial projects.
Our stone handling derrick crane consists of a central mast (tower) and a lifting boom, supported by tie members and controlled through independent lifting mechanisms. This structure allows safe, stable, and precise movement of heavy loads with controlled rotation and lifting speed.
Derrick Crane
Product Description:
A derrick crane is a lifting device usually composed of mast (frame or tower) and lifting arm. There are three or four lines connecting the mast to the lifting arm, which controls it goes up and down. To lift a load, a separate line runs under the lifting arm with a hook as the hoisting mechanism.
Function of Derrick Crane :-An oil derrick is used to dig a hole for an oil well, then to push the drill pipe deep into the earth. A mud mixture is sprayed from the drill bit to push material from the cuttings up out of the hole and cool the drill equipment, as well as to keep the bore hole stable.

Features of Gantry Crane
Function of Derrick Crane
The primary function of a heavy lifting crane like a derrick crane is to handle large, bulky, and high-weight materials in fixed working zones.
Common functions include:
- Lifting and placing stone blocks and slabs
- Handling heavy industrial components
- Supporting drilling and infrastructure projects
- Loading and unloading materials in confined areas
- Continuous heavy-duty lifting with controlled motion
Because of its rigid structure and strong base, a stone handling derrick crane is ideal for operations where precision, safety, and load stability are critical.
Applications of Derrick Crane
Ajmer Machine’s derrick cranes are widely used in:
- Stone processing plants & marble yards
- Granite and mining industries
- Construction and infrastructure projects
- Oil & drilling support operations
- Shipyards and dockside lifting
- Industrial material handling
Its ability to rotate over a wide angle and lift vertically makes it suitable for restricted spaces where mobile cranes are not practical.
