Crane Festoon
Systems.
Define the travel route.
Coordinate track, trolleys and cables.
Plan C-rail or I-beam festoon requirements for crane runway and bridge travel. Bring the cable package, loop clearance, carrier arrangement and parking area into one coordinated enquiry.

01 / System directions
One travel path.
A coordinated component package.
Choose a starting system type, then define the route, cables, carriers and working conditions. Final track sizes and component ratings follow the selected layout and model.
Galvanized C-Rail
Define the rail layout, support points, carrier load and cable package for the working environment.
Stainless C-Rail
Describe exposure, cleaning and material requirements. Confirm the selected track, trolley and hardware execution.
I-Beam Cable Trolleys
Share the actual beam profile, flange dimensions, travel duty and parking area. The beam structure is outside this planning price model.
02 / Layout review
Travel space above.
Cable clearance below.
Coordinate the route, parking length, trolley load and cable bending requirements. The sketch shows relationships only; actual spacing and geometry come from the project drawing.
Start with four layout questions.
- Route: straight travel, offsets, curves or junctions?
- Cables: power/control quantities, dimensions, weight and bend radius?
- Carriers: trolley load, support, towing and buffers?
- Parking: available storage length and loop clearance at the end?
03 / Configure & plan
Build the festoon enquiry.
Review the model assumptions.
Record the route, cable package and electrical inputs. The carrier, cable-length, resistance and EXW budget models are planning references; final layout and cable selection need project review.
Your Festoon Requirements
Use actual route and cable data where available. The sample is a planning example, not a validated component selection.

Track, trolley and cable.
One coordinated layout.
Use these reference options to define the project. Confirm actual ratings, cable data, trolley loads, support and parking requirements for the selected system.
| Systems | C-rail 30/40/60 (galvanized or stainless), I-beam trolley |
|---|---|
| Cables | Flat PVC/neoprene or round; power 4-core 4–35 mm² typical; control 4–24 cores 0.75–1.5 mm² |
| Trolleys | Ball-bearing wheels, cable saddles/clamps, tow trolley, end clamp, buffers |
| Loop & Spacing | Loop depth 300–800 mm; carrier spacing 0.8–1.2 m typical |
| Options | Curves, junctions, parking section, tensioning devices, SS hardware |
| Docs & Tests | Track layout, BOM, assembly instruction |
The reference table and builder cover different discussion ranges. Loop depth, carrier spacing, ampacity and bend radius must be checked with the actual cables and trolley model; neither voltage-drop proxy is a cable approval.
05 / System reference & budget scope
See the cable arrangement.
Understand the budget inputs.
The cost breakdown below shows the single-set planning model before quantity discounts and urgency. Cable pricing includes a 10% allowance; final BOM quantities and supply scope are confirmed separately.

Single-set planning inputs / USD

- Track / brackets
- $720
- Carrier + tow/end model

- Cable package + allowance

For I-beam selections, the structural beam itself is outside this bracket/trolley price model. Layout options, parking arrangements and final quantities require a project quotation.

Questions for your
festoon system enquiry.
The actual cable package, track layout and operating conditions guide the final system.
Discuss My Runway & Cables ↗Does the builder produce a final carrier count or BOM?
No. It preserves a simple length/spacing model and cable-loop allowance. Actual trolley loading, cable weight and dimensions, bend radii, tow/end arrangements and parking area are confirmed in the layout and BOM.
Why are there two voltage-drop percentages?
One preserves the model based on runway length. The second uses the estimated cable length, which includes the loop allowance. Both use a resistance-only approximation; actual routing and electrical design can produce different results.
Does a percentage below the selected limit approve the cable?
No. Confirm actual installed length, cable resistance at operating temperature, reactance, power factor, starting current and ampacity, together with cable construction and flexing requirements.
What happens if even 35 mm² exceeds the model limit?
The tool requests a full cable/system review instead of suggesting the same 35 mm² again. Any comparison section shown is a model candidate and is not applied automatically.
Does the I-beam budget include the structural beam?
No. The I-beam branch uses bracket/trolley pricing assumptions. Confirm the structural beam, support and supply interfaces separately in the quotation.
Is the amount an order total and is the timeline guaranteed?
The illustrative EXW amount is the planning total for the entered quantity, with the model discount and urgency factors. Scope, final price, availability and delivery are confirmed in the quotation.
08 / Layout & commercial enquiry
Send the runway requirements.
Share the cable and parking layout.
Your selected system, cable inputs, planning outputs and EXW budget are included in the enquiry. Add the site layout, actual cable data and supporting files where available.
