Overhead Traveling Crane, Hoist, & Monorail System Manufacturing

Code 333923 covers establishments manufacturing overhead traveling cranes, hoists, and monorail systems designed to lift and move loads suspended from above or along a track. The boundary with elevator manufacturing (333921) is that elevators move loads vertically within a fixed shaft or structure, while overhead cranes and hoists move loads horizontally or at variable angles using external track systems. Winches and block-and-tackle systems that provide lifting capability are classified here, distinguishing this code from conveyor equipment (333922), which moves loads continuously along a predetermined path, and from industrial trucks and stackers (333924), which are mobile ground-based equipment.
