Since 1977, Gorbel has been an innovator and leader of lifting loads in a work cell. Gorbel began as a manufacturer of manually or power operated Jib Cranes, including wall bracket, wall cantilever, free standing, and mast type models. In 1986, Gorbel added a line of Work Station Cranes, which addressed the trend for safe, productive, ergonomic solutions for overhead material handling operations.
The next major product addition for Gorbel came in late 1997, when they began manufacturing a line of Robotic Work Station Cranes. These cranes automatically move and position products from 20 lbs. to 4,000 lbs. at speeds of up to 400 ft. per minute, with an accuracy level of 1/8". In the new millennium, Gorbel introducted the G-Force™, an intelligent lifting device. With the use of the G-Force™, a worker can lift objects up to 150 lbs. at high speeds with very little effort. All Gorbel products are manufactured at state-of-the-art facilities in New York and Alabama and are sold through an extensive dealer network.
Today, Gorbel is continuing to increase quality and customer service standards to exceed their customers' positive expectations. Gorbel takes pride in on-time, error-free shipments, as well as the industry's best product warranty—5 years on most products.
