Itsinda ryingoma rya Crane nigice cyingenzi muburyo bwo guterura imashini zubuzima. Irakoreshwa cyane cyane kumugaragaro no kuyobora umugozi wa wire kugirango tumenye kuzamura no kugabanya kugenda kwa hook. Nkigice cyingenzi cya sisitemu yo kwikorera imitwaro, itsinda ry'ingoma rifitanye isano itaziguye n'umutekano no kwizerwa imikorere yo guterura. Dukurikije imiterere yimiterere, irashobora kugabanywamo ubwoko bubiri: umuyaga-umwe-uhinduranya na ruguru. Bikoreshwa cyane mubikoresho bitandukanye byo guterura nkakirara, gantry cranes, crane yumunara, nibindi.
Itsinda ry'ingoma rigizwe ahanini n'umubiri w'ingoma, guhuza shaft, inkunga yo kubyara, ibikoresho byo kurinda nibindi bice. Ingoma isanzwe ikozwe muburyo bwiza bwicyuma cyangwa ibyuma bisudira, kandi ubuso butunganijwe hamwe na rope ihindagurika kugirango hategurwe gahunda yumugozi wirenga. Iyo ukora, ingoma itwarwa no kuzunguruka no kugabanya no kurekura umugozi wire ukurikije ibisabwa. Amatsinda yingoma ya kijyambere akoresha ibipimo bya rope hamwe no kuvura hejuru kugirango bigabanye neza umugozi umugozi wambaye kandi ubuzima bwa serivisi. Imiyoboro iremereye nayo ifite ibikoresho bya gahunda yo gutondekanya kugirango hategurwe neza mugihe cyindege.
