Flex Lifting
Flex Lifting is a brand of AXA Group specialised in the production of 100% made in Italy mobile counterbalance cranes, suitable for all industrial sectors. Our mission: To provide environmentally friendly lifting and handling solutions, which guarantee the highest level of safety for the operators.
Why choose Flex Lifting
ERGONOMIC LIFTING SOLUTIONS
The use of mini cranes for moving and lifting loads eliminates physical efforts and manual operations in favor of reducing injuries caused by musculoskeletal trauma.
VERSATILE AND FLEXIBLE LIFTING SYSTEMS
Unlike fixed systems, industrial mobile cranes can be used flexibly in different areas within production plants. Thanks to the extendable lifting arm, our ergonomic lifting systems can get close to the load even in the presence of obstacles or perimeter protections.
TIME OPTIMIZATION AND INCREASE IN PRODUCTIVITY
Thanks to their compactness and functionality which does not require the use of lateral stabilizers, Flex Lifting lifting solutions are able to reach areas that are difficult to access with bulkier vehicles. They also represent a solution that favors the reduction of working times that would be required for the manual handling of equipment and loads of various kinds.
INTERNATIONAL PRESENCE
Our wide geographical coverage, represented by the best distributors active in the lifting solutions market , allows us to respond as effectively as possible to the needs of our customers.
SAFETY IN THE WORKPLACE
The real reason behind the widespread use of mini cranes is their ability to operate safely in confined spaces and ensure precise load positioning. Furthermore, our cantilever counterbalanced cranes can simultaneously manage multiple accessories such as lifting suction cups, scales, clamps, tippers, permanent magnets, etc.
FAST DELIVERY TIMES - OUR PRIORITY
One of our main goals is to be able to meet our customers’ demand as efficiently as possible, always ensuring a ready-to-ship stock of almost all our mobile crane models.
CRAFTING EXCELLENCE, ONE INNOVATION AT A TIME

Customer reviews
When I came across this crane the design was immediately of interest. CNC machines are notoriously hard to load. A crane cannot roll under them, and they are often packed into tight spaces.Over head cranes are great, but very expensive for small to medium size shops. so the Flex Lifting cranes immediately turned out to be the ideal solution.
PA, USA
We had the opportunity to test an electric powered crane by Flex Lifting and it was immediately clear to us how it could improve our daily lifting tasks and eliminate possible damages to the load. So we decided to keep it and buy after the test. A must have solution to simplify molds change on our injection plastic machines fleet.
Germany
We purchased an Orbit 500ER few years ago and were so satisfied about the performances of this electric crane that we decided to place repeat orders and use the same crane in other department inside our manufacturing plant. The thing we like more is the compactness and intuitive controls.

FAQ
Why Are More Companies Replacing Forklifts with Flex Lifting Compact Counterbalanced Cranes?
In many industrial environments, a growing number of companies are adopting Flex Lifting compact counterbalanced cranes as a more efficient alternative to forklifts for specific lifting and load positioning operations.
While forklifts remain essential for material transport and logistics, they are not always the best solution for operations requiring precise lifting, equipment installation, or work in confined industrial spaces.
Compact industrial cranes offer a safer, more precise, and more efficient way to handle these tasks, allowing operators to lift, move, and position heavy loads directly at the workstation with greater control.
Thanks to their counterbalanced crane design, these machines can also reach over obstacles and position loads beyond the footprint of the machine, making them ideal for working above pallets, production equipment, CNC machines, or structural elements.
Why Should Distributors Add Flex Lifting Counterbalanced Cranes to Their Product Portfolio?
Flex Lifting cranes represent a high-demand category in the industrial lifting equipment market, widely used across sectors such as construction, manufacturing, industrial installation, and maintenance operations.
They offer distributors several key advantages:
- Access to a rapidly growing industrial equipment segment
- Products suitable for both equipment rental fleets and end users
- Versatile applications across multiple industries
- Equipment designed to solve daily lifting challenges in tight workspaces
Thanks to their versatility and broad range of applications, Flex Lifting counterbalanced cranes represent a strategic and highly profitable addition to any industrial distributor’s portfolio.
What Is the Advantage of the Counterbalanced Design of Flex Lifting Cranes?
The counterbalanced crane design uses integrated ballast positioned at the rear of the machine to offset the weight of the load being lifted. This configuration allows the crane to handle heavy materials while maintaining excellent stability and precise load control.
One of the main advantages of this design is the ability to reach and position loads beyond obstacles while keeping the base of the machine clear from the load area.
This feature is particularly useful in environments where materials must be positioned on workbenches, production equipment, pallets, or inside industrial structures.
