What We Do

We got our start selling pumps to the paper industry. During the past 80+ years, however, we've grown into much more. Sure, pumps are still a huge part of our business, but now we’re a diverse fluid handling powerhouse, offering a multi-faceted portfolio of equipment and services that can satisfy even the most demanding needs.

Today, we’re Wisconsin's largest distributor of industrial-grade pumps, valves, filters, wastewater treatment equipment, and other fluid processing technology.

Service Pros Get In, Get Out, and Get It Right

The service pros at Crane Engineering are factory-trained and have experience installing, starting, and repairing all types of fluid handling products. The focus of every repair is to find the source of the problem, address it, and ensure it doesn't happen again. We stand behind our work with a 1-year warranty.

A Brief History

In 1939, Herbert Crane founded Crane Engineering as a pump supplier to the paper industry in Appleton, Wisconsin. Three generations of the Crane family have grown the business well beyond pumps and fluid process equipment.

Today, led by the founder’s grandson, Lance Crane, Crane Engineering is one of the Midwest’s leading providers of fluid handling solutions with over 100 employees. The company serves a broad range of markets, providing pump skid system design, equipment sourcing and selection, fabrication, installation, field service, and repair.
