Why choose NAI?  After all, there are many providers out there, and they’re all willing to sell you crane equipment and services.  Some might even be located closer to you than we are.  For those who view crane equipment as a commodity, there’s little to consider other than price.  

But we believe that crane equipment is not a commodity, that there is more to it than just steel and electrical wires.  We believe that crane equipment designed by engineers specifically for your needs, built by fabricators with decades of experience, delivered by project managers with a thorough understanding of your expectations and installed by field technicians with a respect for your work environment, yields superior results.  This is what we’ve done for over 45 years.

Throughout our website, you will see three recurring themes which explain how we are different than our competitors.  They make the case for why you should put your trust, and investment, with NAI.

Robust design maximizes uptime and reduces total cost of ownership

Heavy-Duty Class D


Our Class D crane systems are designed to make twice as many lifts per hour and can lift the full-rated load 30% more often than Class C systems with similar capacities.  Under the same conditions, NAI Class D crane systems will last twice as long as Class C cranes.

Membership in CMAA


CMAA’s rigorous admissions process tests whether the member’s capabilities, personnel, processes and resources are of a caliber to design and fabricate the highest quality crane systems.  NAI’s membership is testimony that it meets those demanding criteria.

NAI Structural Welders Are Certified to AWS 14.1


NAI’s structural welders are certified to AWS 14.1.  In maintaining these high welding standards, we are assured that our fabrication quality is unsurpassed and that time-consuming weld testing is limited to only the most critical needs.

Design Features Maximize Uptime and Minimize Total Cost of Ownership


From durable electromechanical brakes to Class D sealed bearings, from automatically-resetting thermal overloads to redundant steel cords in the pendant cable, NAI crane systems are designed to minimize ongoing costs of operation.  For you, this means more uptime, less maintenance, lower costs and improved safety.

The Best Warranty in the Industry


NAI‘s standard two-year warranty is the longest and best in the industry.

NAI is organized to be the best crane equipment supplier in the market

A Wide Range of Product and Service Offerings


From complete cranes systems to budget-friendly crane components, from bridge cranes to stacker cranes, from turnkey installation to crane refurbishments, NAI is the one-stop shop that meets all of your overhead lifting needs.

All Sales and Engineering Are Performed by NAI Employees


You will always be talking with experienced crane professionals who are trained in NAI’s solutions approach and who have a thorough knowledge of NAI’s products and capabilities.

Knowledgeable Project Managers


All of NAI’s project managers are engineers, able to talk with you about the most technical aspects of your equipment.  They have the authority to direct the resources necessary to design, fabricate, deliver and install your crane system on time and according to your specifications.  You will have a single, accountable point of contact, from the time you place your order until the time your crane is operational.

Equipment Focus


Unique in the overhead crane industry, NAI’s business model is centered on providing new crane equipment, not crane service.  This means that NAI’s focus is on providing the very best equipment for the particular application, not on the recurring revenue stream that results from servicing the equipment in the future.
