Single-girder bridge overhead cranes usually only include one main beam, suspended between two columns. They have a simple structure and are easy to install. They are suitable for light lifting operations, such as 5 ton single girder overhead crane. While double-girder overhead cranes consist of two main beams with a space in the middle. The lifting mechanism is suspended between the two beams. The structure is more complex and requires more installation space and higher installation height. It is suitable for heavy lifting operations.
The 5 ton overhead crane has a relatively small carrying capacity and is suitable for material handling in workshops. The double-girder bridge crane has a large load-bearing capacity of 50 tons or more.
The 5 ton bridge crane is suitable for places with small space, such as workshops and warehouses; the double-beam bridge crane is suitable for places with large space, such as docks and shipyards.
5 ton overhead cranes are usually operated on the ground and can be operated by handles and remote controls. They have low rated lifting capacity, and relatively low working levels. Large bridge cranes require worker control when operating, and have high stability. The rated lifting capacity is large and the working level is relatively high.
Compared with large overhead cranes, 5 ton overhead crane price is more acceptable and the market scope is broader.SEVENCRANE bridge cranes have a full range of types. If you are interested, welcome to consult!
