Which cranes are suitable for plant operations?

Hoisting machinery is a kind of equipment that can carry out up-and-down, horizontal load movement and help to lift materials. It is widely used in various factories. Because the space of the factory building is narrow and the structure of the factory's own beam can be used as the tripod of the crane, the practical factory cranes are generally bridge cranes, gantry cranes and electric hoists. These lifting devices are very suitable for the factory lifting operation.

Which cranes are suitable for plant operations?

Bridge Crane

The bridge crane can lift the crane above the workshop and can carry out horizontal, vertical, and horizontal load operations to carry out the lifting of materials. Bridge cranes are also called overhead cranes, because the two ends are placed on the cement pillars or the metal beams of the plant, and the entire machine is in mid-air.

At both ends of the bridge crane bridge, longitudinal rails are installed to enable the crane to move longitudinally, so that the space below the bridge can be better used for lifting heavy objects, and obstacles on the ground can be avoided. Bridge cranes are the most widely used and most numerous lifting equipment on the market.

Gantry Crane

Gantry cranes are based on bridge cranes. They can be used in the loading and unloading of goods outside the factory building. The metal structure of this type of crane is similar to the door frame. There is a leg at each end of the main beam, which can carry out load movement on the track of the ground. Both ends of the main beam also have the function of extending the cantilever beam. Because gantry cranes have the advantages of space utilization, large operating radius, and good versatility, they have been widely used in some ports and factories.

This is the simplest lifting equipment. It can be used alone or in combination with gantry cranes and bridge cranes. It has the advantages of small size, light weight etc. It is common used in industrial and mining factories, workshops and other places.
