Workshop Single Girder Overhead Travelling Crane

Because the overhead crane single girder have only one beam, generally, this kind of system has lower dead weight, meaning that it can take advantage of lighter runway systems, and connect with existing buildings supporting structures. If designed suitable, it can increase day-to-day operations and is a perfect solution for facilities and operations when warehouse or factory have limited space.

The overhead crane single girder refer to the single girder travelling on the track rails, whereby the lift is traversed horizontally over the girders. The overhead crane single girder’s frames run longitudinally on tracks laid either side of the raised frame, while the hoist truss runs horizontally on tracks laid over the bridge frame, creating a rectangular work envelope that is capable of fully utilising space beneath the bridge frame for lifting materials without being hindered by on-site equipment.

The single girder is the load-bearing beam which running across the end beams, and is the main structural component of overhead crane single girder. The basic structure of a overhead crane single girder is made up of main girder, end beams, lifting part like wire rope hoist or electric chain hoist, trolley part, and controller like remote control button or pendent control button.
