An end carriage is a structural component of overhead cranes designed to enable crane travel along the runway system. It is an integral part of the crane mechanism and directly affects the reliability and operational safety of the equipment.

A typical end carriage consists of the following elements:

• Frame: A welded steel structure providing strength and rigidity.
• Wheels: Steel wheels that ensure travel along the crane rails.
• Drive: A gear motor that transmits torque to the wheels. The gear motor may be equipped with a brake or supplied without one.
• Axle housings: Used to connect the wheels to the carriage frame and fitted with rolling bearings to ensure smooth movement and reduce component wear.

According to the mounting configuration, end carriages are classified as:

• Top-running end carriages: Provide crane travel via wheels operating on rails or square bars installed on top of the runway beams.
• Underrunning end carriages: Travel along the lower flange of the runway beam, which functions both as the supporting structure and as the running surface for the wheels.
