This underhung bridge crane is one kind of light duty crane, it runs under H steel rail. It is designed and made by reasonable structure and higher strength steel. It uses together with CD1 model MD1 model electric hoist as a complete set, it is a light duty crane with a capacity 0.5 ton ~ 20ton. The span is 5-40m. Working duty is A3~A5, working temperature is -25-40ºC.
The trolley of underhung monorail cranes is mounted to the bottom of the bridge girder rather than the top and has wheels to move back and forth along the girder. The mounting location is usually on the bottom inside of the flange of the I-beam. Since the entire assembly is suspended below the bridge girder, the top hook height of these systems is significantly lower than that of a top running system. The lower top hook height means that the size of objects you are able to lift may be limited if the overhead space in your facility is low.
Another major benefit of underhung monorail cranes is that they allow for flexible movement throughout the space. The top running bridge crane is limited in how close it can get to a wall because the hook is located between the two girders. Even if you are using a single girder system, you may run into similar issues due to space limitations dictated by the ceiling design. The underhung bridge crane is able to get closer to the end of the runway and bridge girder, which allows for more accessible facility space for the jib crane. The crane hook is also easier for the operator to operate because it is smaller and allows for more flexibility than a bridge girder.
There are many things to consider when evaluating the best underhung bridge crane for your needs. Fortunately, there are experts who specialize in designing and maintaining crane systems who can guide you through the process to ensure that you end up with a system that you will be satisfied with. As crane experts, we are committed to solving problems and providing lifting solutions for you.
