Overhead crane is a kind of lifting machinery, and its main features include:
Simple structure: The single girder overhead crane is usually composed of a bridge frame, a trolley running mechanism, a trolley running mechanism and a lifting mechanism. It has a simple structure and is easy to maintain and operate.
Large span: The single girder overhead crane can perform lifting operations within a larger span and is suitable for workshops, warehouses, docks and other places.
Large lifting capacity: The lifting capacity can be designed according to needs and can meet the lifting needs of different occasions.
Wide range of use: It is widely used in material handling and loading and unloading operations in factories, mines, ports, warehouses and other places.
Safe and reliable: The single girder bridge crane is equipped with a variety of safety protection devices, such as limit switches, overload protection, emergency stop buttons, etc., to ensure safe operation.
Manufacturing: It is an essential tool in the manufacturing industry, especially in heavy industries where large and heavy materials need to be moved around the plant. Typical applications of overhead cranes in manufacturing include: moving raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished products within a manufacturing shop, from one workstation to another, or from one storage area to another.
Warehousing: Single girder overhead cranes can be used in large warehouses and distribution centers to lift and move heavy goods and materials. Some typical applications of overhead cranes in warehousing include: loading and unloading trucks and containers with heavy or large materials.
Power Plants: Single girder overhead cranes are an essential part of power plants, especially in the construction and maintenance of large power generation facilities. Move fuel, coal, ash, and other materials around the power plant from storage areas to processing or disposal areas.
Metallurgy: In metallurgical applications, it is used in different processes in steel plants: casting, loading, forging, storage, etc.
Overhead crane can meet the requirements of strength, rigidity and stability of large-tonnage heavy duty lifting. The bridge runs fast and the production efficiency is high. It can be equipped with different hook attachments to meet the lifting requirements of different occasions. What’s more, the crane is easy to maintain and adjust, and is less expensive than a European standard overhead crane of the same specification.
