Overhead Crane Operation

How does the Overhead Crane Operate?

An overhead crane is a kind of lifting equipment used to carry heavy loads, usually installed in industrial plants. Overhead cranes use the beam structure, and both sides of the support are equipped with a walking mechanism, through the motor drive, which can walk back and forth in the span, and drive the lifting mechanism to complete the lifting and unloading of goods operations. The components of the bridge crane and bridge crane operation process are as follows:

When the overhead crane is in operation, the operator controls the crane's travel mechanism to move the crane to the position where the lifting operation needs to be performed. Then, the operator lowers the crane's electric hoist over the cargo position and secures the cargo with a sling (such as a sling or hook). The operator then lifts the load, move it to its destination, and lowers it. Then, the overhead crane operator needs to pay attention to safety at all times, ensuring that the crane load does not exceed the rated load and that the relevant safety operating procedures are followed.

Why Custom a Crane Solution?

At Yuantai, we know that there is no "one size fits all" in the lifting field. Universal cranes are suitable for general factories, warehouses, etc. Besides, different applications have different needs for cranes. For example, steel industries often lift steel plates, so need electromagnetic cranes. Ports and docks often need to load ore, gravel, and other bulk goods, so need to grab bucket cranes. Chemical dangerous places often need to carry flammable and explosive materials, so need explosion proof cranes.

So, we provide customized cranes according to the special needs of our customers. Custom crane solutions offer many benefits in a variety of applications：
