Lift Planning.
Precise. Digital. Efficient.
CRANEbee supports the entire planning process. From a library of over 470 crane models, the software automatically determines the right configuration for each operation. All results are precisely calculated, fully visualised in 3D and can be seamlessly transferred to existing CAD environments.
CRANEbee
An overview of the key features for you
Drone data integration, flexible import and export options and tandem lifts with up to 8 cranes make CRANEbee the central platform for digital construction site planning.
A new approach to crane search.
Crane and configuration comparison
Instead of manually working through load tables and crane manuals, CRANEbee automatically searches through millions of crane configurations. It filters results based on the actual requirements of the job: radius, load, lifting height, obstacle geometry, boom type, counterweight, and other parameters. As a result, only the configurations that actually work are displayed. Quickly identified, precisely calculated and ready for immediate use on the digital construction site.
CRANEbee calculates the ground pressure under crawler tracks and outriggers in real time.
Ground pressure
Any change to a parameter such as load, slewing angle, or counterweight triggers an immediate recalculation of ground pressure based on the current crane geometry and rigging configuration. Mat planning for mobile and crawler cranes is also directly integrated. The result is reliable crane planning with the highest safety standards and minimal effort.
Maximum compatibility, minimum effort.
Import/Export Feature
CRANEbee supports the import of numerous file formats including IFC, STEP, DWG/DXF, PDF, and common image files. There is no limit on the number of imported objects. All files can be scaled, positioned, and integrated into the ongoing planning directly on the construction site. For sharing with colleagues or project stakeholders, the finished project can be exported in IFC, STEP, DXF, and 3D-PDF formats.
Real construction sites, digitally in CRANEbee.
Drone OBJ
In partnership with AirClip GmbH & Co. KG, complete textured 3D models based on drone data can be imported directly into CRANEbee. The real construction site becomes the digital planning foundation. Existing buildings, terrain, and obstacles are visible in the model and can be taken into account when positioning cranes and loads. This provides a reliable basis for the entire crane planning process.
Direct, real-time connection to AutoCAD.
CAD interface
Individual cranes or the entire construction site can be transferred to AutoCAD with a single click. All relevant data such as positions, boom lengths, and slewing ranges are included. Changes in CRANEbee are immediately visible in AutoCAD, without any manual synchronisation. Two systems, one planning stage.
CRANEbee makes tandem lifts easy to plan.
Tandem lift
Tandem lifts are one of the most complex processes in crane planning. In CRANEbee, up to eight cranes can be coordinated simultaneously to lift a single load. If the load is moved or rotated, all the cranes involved follow automatically. What requires the highest precision on the construction site is transformed into controlled and safe planning in CRANEbee.
From the hook block to the load.
RHL Configurator
The RHL configurator allows rigging equipment to be visually assembled directly in CRANEbee. Using predefined components such as wire ropes, spreaders, and anchor points, the desired configuration is built step by step and displayed as a 3D model in real time. The finished rigging is automatically transferred to the crane, precisely positioned and ready for use.
The finalised plan documented at the touch of a button.
Printout
CRANEbee automatically generates a complete project printout with all relevant information such as crane details, load charts, ground pressure, rigging configuration, and dimensions. The documentation is clearly organised by crane and step, and can be exported as PDF or printed directly. Add your own company logo and it is ready to be shared with the client.
