15 Ton Overhead Crane for Sale to Kenya

Project Description:
  • DQCRANES supplied a new 15 ton overhead traveling crane for a tube/pipe producer in Kenya.
  • These two sets Double Girder Overhead Crane replaces an existing single girder EOT crane used in the customer’s testing department.  
  • The 4-motion severe service top running crane was designed to be installed on an existing runway system of 20.64 meters span and 7.5 meters of lift, 84 meters P30 running rails.
  • The travel drive is designed with infinitely variable control and offers state of the art precision handling for extremely smooth control and minimal maintenance.  
  • The 15 ton overhead crane is equipped with an enclosed cab suspended from the main girder. Also equipped with remote control is included as a second mode of operation.  
  • Now the new top running overhead cranes have been packaged and exported to Kenya, hope everything goes well.

Overhead bridge cranes: Single Girder vs. Double Girder Design

single girder overhead crane Design:

  • On a single girder crane at DQCRANES, the bridge consists of one girder beam supported on each side by an end truck. The trolley and hoist are most commonly underslung—meaning they run on the bottom flange of the bridge. The bridge itself can either be top running or under running in design.
  • If properly designed, a single girder crane can be the perfect solution for a business that needs a light to medium duty crane, or for a facility where headroom and/or floor space is limited.
  • Single girder bridge cranes are often the most cost-effective lifting solution for various applications and industries. Single girder cranes use less material and are more compact and lightweight than a Double Girder Crane, which results in a significant cost-savings in material, freight, and installation. Also, because they only require one bridge beam, these systems typically have less deadweight, meaning they can utilize lighter runway systems and tie into the existing building support structure. 

Advantages of a Single Girder Crane Design from DQCRANES:

  • Less expensive due to a simpler trolley design, reduced freight costs, simplified and faster installation, and less material for the bridge and runway beams.
  • Most economical option for light to medium-duty cranes.
  • Lower loads on the building structure or foundations due to a reduced deadweight. In many cases, it can be supported by existing roof structure without the use of additional support columns.
  • Better hook approach for both trolley travel and bridge travel.
  • Easier to install, service, and maintain.
  • Ideal for workshops, warehouses, material yards, and manufacturing and production facilities.
  • Lighter load on runway rails or beams means less wear on the beams and end truck wheels over time.
  • Great for facilities with low headroom. 

Double Girder Overhead Crane Design:

  • On a double girder crane, there are two girder beams that make up the bridge and they’re supported by an end truck on each side. In most instances, the trolley and hoist run on a rail installed on top of the bridge girders. With a double girder design, you gain the depth of the cross girder if the hoist is placed between or on top of the cross girders—providing an extra hook height in most cases.
  • double girder bridge cranes can be either top running or under running in design. A top running double girder bridge crane will provide the most overhead room, as well as the greatest hook height.
  • Double girder running cranes are recommended for heavy-duty applications where the crane has to handle heavier capacities and longer spans. Because of this, the components of the crane system, including the hoist and trolley, are more complex in design—making double girder cranes more expensive than a single girder crane. 

Advantages of a Double Girder Crane Design from DQCRANES:

  • Greater hook height – how far above the floor the hoist will lift more than single girder).
  • No limits to maximum span or capacity.
  • Ideal for production and transportation of heavy equipment.
  • Ideal for frequent lifting of heavy loads.
  • Added features like walkways and maintenance platforms, cabs, magnetic reels, and lights can be added and supported by a double girder design.
  • Can be used in indoor and outdoor applications, including mining, iron and steel, railyards, and ports.
